I know a lot of you hate going to TMZ, but you have to. TMZ has photos HERE of Mel Gibson in a “disguise” and it is… unbelievable. Mel is wearing a big, fake, grey mustache, like he’s trying to be Wilford Brimley’s “Diabeetus” Kitty. It’s hilarious. Anyway, Mel didn’t just get himself pap’d in a f-cking “disguise” – no, he also had a one-one run-in with a paparazzo, and Mel was, predictably, a total dick:
Another bizarre Mel Gibson moment. On Monday, he had an odd exchange with paparazzi in Los Angeles, trying to film them in the back of a car on his camera phone, TMZ reports.
Sporting a bushy mustache (a la onetime Quaker Oats spokesman Wilford Brimley) and donning thick black glasses and a ball cap, he first approached the car, asking one of the celeb shutterbugs to roll down his window.
“What’s the matter?” he asked. “Got nothing better to do?”
After rolling down his window, the photographer then hurled a bunch of questions at the 54-year-old actor, who is currently embroiled in an ugly custody battle with ex Oksana Grigorieva, mother of his 9-month-old daughter Lucia.
“I just wondered if you really hit Oksana,” he asked, adding: “Do you think you’ll ever make a movie in Hollywood again?”
He also asked Gibson if he’d ever work with “anybody of any race or any creed or sexual orientation” again, given that Gibson made numerous racial slurs during phone conversations with Grigorieva, 40, that were leaked this summer.
Known for his wild temper, Gibson surprisingly played it cool. “You got a lot of dialogue, don’t you?” he asked.
The photographer replied, “Do you have anything to say for yourself?”
“Not to you,” Gibson shot back. “I just wanted to film you. Thanks for following us around.”
Before walking away, he asked, “What’s it like sniffing other people’s laundry?”
[From Us Weekly]
“What’s it like sniffing other people’s laundry?” Oh, Mel. You glum c-nt. Why don’t you shut up and blow me. BEFORE THE JACUZZI. You know what that paparazzo was doing? He was snapping photos that he probably sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars, because of the added value of Mel as “Diabeetus Kitty”.
the hell? the man is out of his goddamn mind
LMAO!
ha ha diabeetus, haa haa. that is perfect.
Lol is he trying to be Elmer Fudd!
As we say in the south, Lord have Mercy!! For I have no words for that stupid SOB.
I cannot bring myself to watch ANY movie he ever did, and there were a couple I even liked – did anyone ever see Gallipoli?
I think it’s sad hes done this to himself… Alright he has serious problems but some of his movies were truly great. Now no one has ANY respect for him as a person let alone a director.
He needs help
Bwahahahaaaa!!! Love it!! Diabeetus Kitteh!!
Gibson is well and truly off his rocker and should just go quietly into that dark night….
I guess i’m the only one who thinks the photographer is just as much as a douche that Mel Gibson is.
He looks like he’s putting on some weight. Notice his shirt was a little tight there around the middle unless he’s wearing something to make him look heavier. Poor guy having to go to such extremes to disguise himself because he’s that ashamed to walk around in public.
I wrote in a blog on TMZ last year that Mel was going to be publicly slapped/humiliated in the face because this is what he’s done to his wife and family. I bet there were several times Robyn and some of the kids were ashamed to be seen in public. Mel said to Oks that she used him, of course she did, Mel “used” Robyn and his family for his selfish self-image; I also heard that Mel put someone in jail because he filed a restraining order against the guy – then Mel is going to jail.
I don’t think the photog was a “douche” Mel should have just ignored him and walked away, that’s Mel bully behavior going up to the paps car and videoing them, it just shows that he can’t control his attitude/behavior and that he’s childish. He still refuses to say anything in his defense because he knows he’s guilty.
I noticed that his response to the pap was “thanks for following US around”, was someone else with him? or was he implying his split personality Mel and Melbush lip?
I never saw Gallipoli
I guess i’m the only one who thinks the photographer is just as much as a douche that Mel Gibson is.
**********
Nah, you’re not alone. I always think they are douches. It’s a job requirement. Can’t blame the guy for wanting to be left alone and not papped constantly. Karma or not, has to suck!
He has a demony face. Love the diabeetus kitteh comparison!
HurricaneKat – that movie is amazing. The final scene is still burned into my brain.
I saw the footage of this and the photog is a total douche. Someone with the photog was recording this as well and before Mel reaches the car, the photog is saying how he’s going to be rich after this run-in. He then proceeds to bait Mel and say really obnoxious things to him, hoping to get beat up so he can then sue. I hate to defend Mel Gibson for anything but in this particular instance, it sheds light on what celebs deal with on a daily basis with these paps.
Mel is a douche but so is that pap.
They had the parasite pap on extra last night and Giant Tool Mario Lopez actually called him a “Great Man”. Granted Mel is kind of an a-hole, but he is innocent until proven guilty, and these paps are nothing but lowlife parasites
Lol @ Diabeetus Kitty!
“but he is innocent until proven guilty”
Well, he’s still guilty of berating and terrorizing the mother of his child so in a sense, yes he is guilty. Can’t erase that tape (although I’m sure he wishes he could).
Anyway, my vote goes to Diabeetus Kitty. Much much cuter than Gibson..
@kitten
the tapes says it all (and they weren’t “spliced” or “put together”) Mario’s in denial. Mel terrorized the nanny who just died: he had that woman so afraid to say anything because here she was battling cancer, getting chemo, and Mel must have known, showed no compassion/sensitivity to have the woman afraid of being deported when she was dieing!I still firmly believed he terrorized his family.
Can’t be so quick to call the paps “lowlife parasites” (a parasite feeds off of some body for it’s own benefit: Mel fed off his wife/family for his own benefit sucking them of self-worth, dignity: maybe I’m being judgmental); Mel had no business walking up to their car and talking to them,
@ lena nope, not the only one. I think his words were well-chosen and surprisingly demure for him…and sniffing other people’s laundry is essentially what paps do.
Is that his real nose? It looks fake too. If not, I never realized how a little tweak like a moustache can change someone’s looks so much. I used to think he was so hot. Not anymore, not for a long time.
That cat is sooooo cute! He looks so curmudgeonly.
…Though I really hate most of the stupid shit people write under cats’ pics in LOLCats. And I’m really effing sick of those same LolCat people writing shit like “teh kitteh”.
it was worth it- hi lar eeeee us!
Amazing. How humiliating. That’s his life now. He can’t even walk on the streets. Why? Because everyone from 100 years old granny to 7 year old kid will stare at him and say/think: “Oh look – this is that monster Mel Gibson from the tapes”.
Even if Oksana will loose (because Mel obviously have more powerful and expensive attorneys) still she did the most brilliant revenge on abuser ever. She destroyed him publicly. And it will not go away in some time. Because everyone heard tapes. And once you heard it – you can never erase image of that monster from your head.
He can never show up at any celebrity event now. Can you imagine that tension in the room if he would? How can any celebrity even speak to him now. They’ll be embarrassed and will just run away to another corner.
At least he still has a scene of humor,About the disguise, any way as far as I am concerned The authorities have not decided to press charges. I doubt if any will be bought against him. As yet so until other wise he should be innocent until proven otherwise.
And if you guys want something to talk about Oinky’s Father has spilled HIS side of the story to the UK press.
Fill of lies and outrageous story’s, saying Mel’s family and friends payed for Hookers to break up Mel and his daughters relationship.
And Mel was really jealous of the close bond between his daughter and Alexander.
Really? Well Mel has a very close bond between his sons and daughter so Really I just think he wants to get on the bandwagon for his 2 seconds of fame as well.
Also told the press Alexander was beaten up by Mel as well.
So obvious The Apple hasn’t fallen far from the tree, has it? Oinky has been taught well from her parents, Now she is hiring a set of different Lawyers. I thought she was Broke?
Someone said above Mel had no business going up to the car and talking to the guy? Well it works both ways He had no business following Mel around and asking dumb questions, I bet you anything he was wanting Mel to loose it and cry wolf stating he had been attacked or something.

I think this a product of the whole (dumb, imo) ‘team’ business people will go on with. Just because MG is, well, insert you favourite epithet here, doesn’t mean the pap is anything other than a bottom feeder. Yes I get the irony – I visit CB and ultimately support the industry.
Gallipoli was a brilliant movie – but then I’m Australian and the whole Gallipoli fiasco (not the movie, the events) affects and reflects our national identity to this day. I’m not a big movie fan but mel gibson or no, I definitely recommend it.
i can’t believe some people here keep thinking that mel gibson is the bad guy here compared to oksana. fyi, taping someone without their consent is illegal and this woman is also being investigated for extortion. not only that, her photos are also being questioned by the police coz she doesn’t show any other cuts or bruises on her face except for the two chipped/broken veneers. plus, this woman is demanding more money from mel gibson inspite of the fact that he has provided her a car, is letting her and her family stay for free at his house, pays for his daughter’s health insurance, provides her with nannies, and on top of that also pays 5000 dollars a month in child support. and contrary to what some people here believe, oksana actually had some of the best lawyers in california working for her, since mel did also provide her 250,000 dollars to pay for them. however, most of them have left or been fired by oksana, since she apparently can’t seem to listen to any of their advice or only wants to hear what she wants to hear. her criminal lawyers who were handling her dv and extortion cases have also been fired, and they apparently also had a nasty argument with oksana. if even her own lawyers can’t seem to stand her and are more than willing to leave her, then maybe she is actually the problem, and not mel gibson. she and her family have been badmouthing not only mel gibson but also his family and even friends, and making it seem as though oksana was being mistreated by them as well. and since the babysitter is already dead, they are now putting words into her mouth since they know that she can’t refute any of their claims. why should mel be blamed for the babysitter’s death? oksana hired her, even though she might have already been unwell at that time, and has used her in her case against mel as well even though the babysitter never made a statement against him at all.
oksana doesn’t seem to care if her children gets affected by this since she keeps exploiting them as well. and even if it was to be proven that mel did all those things she accused him of doing, she is still an unfit mother because she did not go to the police even though she knew her children were at risk, instead she taped him and hired a business lawyer to negotiate a settlement with mel gibson to obtain 15 million dollars in exchange for the tapes, and agreed for mel to have access to his child. she only changed her mind when she realised that most of the money was going to benefit her daughter only. she seems to think that she is entitled to some sort of alimony even though she was never married to mel and she was only with him for 3 years. some people seem to think that becoz mel gibson is guilty ofverbal abuse, he should pay for what he did to oksana. but they fail to realise that even oksana’s own father seems to hint that timothy dalton does yell at her as well when he said timothy raises his voice at her, and she has also had plenty of nasty arguments with her past exes. some of her previous neighbours have stated that she used to have numerous loud arguments with one of her past bfs. since experts believe that the tapes may have been spliced and edited, it seems reasonable to assume that oksana may have said some nasty things to mel for him to go off at her like that, and she may have edited those out of the tapes. mel gibson is no angel, but some people seem to think that he is evil compared to oksana, even though she is the one who can’t seem to get along with anyone, including her lawyers.
@busby – I’m pretty sure that even if the nasty bits of those tapes were spliced together that most people would think they are unacceptable things to say – even in, what, random component parts. Doesn’t make it better! Whether he deserves prosecution or not, just hearing those things out of his mouth (spliced or not) makes people not like or respect him. And whether or not Oksana is a nasty piece of work (and I suspect she’s a *very* nasty piece of work) people don’t like hearing that sort of thing. And they don’t *have* to like MG just because Oksana likely said awful things or that you or anyone else thinks they may be justified by circumstance. I personally don’t like people that are not in command of themselves and I don’t like people that speak in such a revolting way so disrespectful of an individual, a race or gender. So yay, you say MG gave her a tonne of money – great. Are you saying I have to change my considered opinion of him because of that?
Bahh I never wanted to comment on the Mel-Oksana menage – hell, I didn’t read the stories after they got awful, that’s not what I want from my gossip. Only opened this one for the funny disguise. And now I have – damn you Busby, damn you!!! Lol.
I think what he said was funny.
Man, these cases (domestic violence + extortion) all set against the vast landscape of Hollywood as it gets exploited by the Australian and the Russian in their warped Boris and Natasha scheme to destroy each other since they were unable to become the next Brangelina is Epic. I’m waiting for David Lynch’s version of the movie.
lita, most people would also agree that those recordings were made during a private argument between oksana and mel, and that they should never have been released to the public at all. if mel is that dangerous and oksana was that scared of him, why in the world would she still choose to live at his house together with her whole family, and why in the world is she still chasing after his money by filing lawsuits against him even though she had already signed an agreement back in may? she does not deserve to get his wealth becoz she was never married to him, she is not entitled to any alimony or any other benefits that an ex wife like robyn may have. the only person who is entitled to any support from mel is his daughter lucia. oksana needs to stop using her as her meal ticket and go find herself a job like plenty of other women have done. portraying herself as a victim of domestic violence even though she most likely is not one, only further endangers the women who are (victims). if an abused woman was to follow oksana’s example and actions, she most likely would be dead by now.
