Fifth Tape Released of Man Believed to Be Mel Gibson

Mel Gibson

Is Mel Gibson broke?

In a fifth leaked recording that RadarOnline.com released Thursday, a man who sounds like the actor is heard complaining that he's lost much of his fortune and blames a woman presumed to be ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva.

Fourth tape released: Is there any way it isn't Mel Gibson?

"Because of you I don't have any f---ing money," the man yells. "I spend so much g-----n money on you ... I spent over $5 million on you!"

Gibson and his ex-wife's net worth was estimated at $900 million in 2006.

Man believed to be Mel Gibson uses racial slur in third tape recording

When Grigorieva, 40, tells him he is the "meanest person" she knows, Gibson fires back with another tirade. "I'd like to show you what mean really is. B----, c---, whore, gold digger! All true! You f---ing proved it to me!" Gibson says. "Look at yourself. And look what you've done. Look what you've f---ing done! Look at your son. He's a f---ing mess, you f---ing excuse for a mother. You're a f---ing b----!"

Four other profanity-laden recordings containing threats and racial slurs have been released since Friday. Last week, Gibson was dropped by his longtime agency, William Morris Endeavor, after an audio clip believed to be Gibson criticizing Grigorieva's choice of dress first leaked.

Mel Gibson under investigation for possible domestic violence

Gibson, who is under investigation for alleged domestic violence against Grigorieva, says she threatened to leak the recordings if he didn't pay her. The actor also says she made false claims to the authorities about his alleged abuse.

Grigorieva alleged that Gibson punched her in the face multiple times on Jan. 6, breaking a tooth and causing a concussion. She filed a restraining order against him last week. The two are embroiled in a bitter custody suit for their 8-month-old daughter, Lucia.
