Mel Gibson Sells Home Lived In By Ex Oksana For Less Than He'd Hoped

... asking for $100 k a month as the two fought over child support for six-year-old Lucia. However, they finally struck a deal for the smaller increase, with Oksana also agreeing to move out of Mel's rental home. She is said to be renting a place in Malibu. Originally Mel had agreed to pay Oksana $15 million to settle child support and alleged domestic dispute cases, but that hinged on her keeping recordings of him secret. Stylish details: Wood accents and intricate stained glass elements also feature prominently. Cook up a storm: The large kitchen features plentiful food prep space and a giant island. However, after signing the deal, Oksana then released the tapes - in which Gibson can be heard using racist language and threatening to beat his then-girlfriend - at which point her settlement was drastically reduced. Oksana then spoke about Mel on The Howard Stern show in 2013, after which The Californian Court of Appeal are understood to have denied her the remaining $500,000 of the then already reduced $750,000 ...

Hollywood Forgave Mel Gibson Too Quickly

... reasons. Mel Gibson: 'It's annoying' people won't let anti-Semitic rants go. Circumstances prevented me from seeing and writing a review of “Hacksaw Ridge,” Mel Gibson’s fifth foray into directing, which has been playing in Israeli cinemas for the past three months. Even if this is indicative of a lack of professionalism on my part, perhaps I am using the word “circumstances” as an excuse in order to say that I have an aversion to Gibson’s films – even if more than 10 years have elapsed since that ugly incident in the summer of 2006 when he was arrested for DUI. During the course of the arrest, he assailed the policemen who had stopped him with anti-Semitic and sexist slurs. A few years later, equally ugly details emerged concerning alleged verbal and physical violence toward his then-girlfriend, the Russian pianist Oksana Grigorieva. In the end, however, I caved – because how could I, a professional ...

Why Mel Gibson Directing A ‘suicide Squad’ Sequel Wouldn’t Be So Surprising

... on a $30 million budget (with 2004’s “Passion of the Christ”), Gibson questioned the business model that requires a quarter-billion dollars to be spent on production alone (something that such filmmakers as George Lucas and Steven Spielberg have also done). Asked about superhero-movie economics, Gibson told Deadline : “I’m really baffled by it. I think there’s a lot of waste. … It seems to me that you could do it for less. Wow, I mean if you’re spending outrageous amounts of money, $180 million or more, I don’t know how you make it back after the tax man gets you, and after you give half to the exhibitors.”. In other words, his mini-tirade could be interpreted to mean: “I’ll bet I could make it much cheaper.” (Even as he mock-pleaded ignorance about just how much all those green screens cost — which only serves to highlight Gibson’s love of authentic-looking action ...

... a minor. "This mirrors the larger trend within the culture," says Scott Berkowitz, president of the anti-sexual assault organization RAINN. "People are paying vastly more attention to sexual violence issues and personal behavior and the atmosphere has become much more sympathetic toward victims and much more scornful of defenders. Part of that trend has been because of celebrity cases.". Though it's done little to upset his winning streak, Affleck has been trailed through awards season by sexual harassment allegations made against him in 2010 while directing the mockumentary "I'm Not There." Producer Amanda White, in a civil suit, alleged Affleck made "unwelcome sexual advances" during shooting. Cinematographer Magdalena Gorka, in a separate suit, said Affleck got into bed with her without her consent. The suits were settled for undisclosed sums. A publicist for Affleck said the terms of the settlement preclude him from discussing it. ...
