Brit Sports Barely-there Bikini for Mel Gibson | Today's Top Videos | 5/19/2008
You've probably heard of the oh-so-random vacation buddies, Mel and Brit, who recently jet-setted to the actor's very private ranch on the coast of beautiful Costa Rica along with Brit's dad and Mel's wife. The recovering train-wreck was photographed Friday on the beach sporting a teeny-weeny bikini (and not exactly flattering to the figure) while taking in some much needed R&R. So much for a private ranch, Mel! read more

Box-Office Shocker: Moviegoers Toast Mel Gibson | Today's News: Our Take | 12/11/2006
Those who said Mel Gibson would never eat lunch in Hollywood again were wrong: His Apocalypto debuted at the top of the box office this weekend with a haul of $14.2 million. That said, the self-destructive director may be having that lunch at Burger King rather than Chez Fancypants, seeing as his last hard-sell flick, The Passion of the Christ, took in $83.8 million in its opening weekend. Rounding out the top five were the Cameron Diaz/Jude Law (or Kate Winslet/Jack Black, if you prefer) date... read more

Mel Gibson Feels Slurring Seinfelder's Pain | Today's News: Our Take | 11/30/2006
Mel Gibson, recently vilified himself for spouting racial slurs, identifies and sympathizes with Seinfeld's Michael Richards, whose epithet-laden rant landed him in his own pot of hot water. (I know, shocker, right?) "I feel really badly for the guy," Gibson tells Entertainment Weekly. "He was obviously in a state of stress. You don't need to be inebriated to be bent out of shape. But my heart went out to the guy." Speaking of ridicule and inebriation.... read more

All "Mel" Breaks Loose on Law & Order | Today's News: Our Take | 9/27/2006
Just as it presented a dramatization of a Britney and K-Fed-esque couple in last week's season premiere, Law & Order's next shamelessly ripped-from-the-tabloid-headlines outing, airing Nov. 3, will guest-star Chevy Chase as a celebrity who, when pulled over for drunk driving, launches into an anti-Semitic rant. Then, veering away from even what Mel Gibson stands accused of, Chase's character's shirt is found to be stained with the blood of the Jewish producer behind his failed sitcom. Can... read more
