Mel Gibson
As a director and actor, no one could argue against Mel Gibson’s stellar performance. He is the one behind many blockbuster films like The Bounty, The Patriot, and Braveheart. However, his spotless record had been cast against negative light when he was arrested in 2006 for drunk driving. Unfortunately, he was not very cooperative at that time, and instead of calling his lawyer right away, he went on to issue racist remarks against the arresting officer.
It was definitely uncalled for, and later on, it was revealed that the incident hurt both Gibson’s and the deputy’s career. It was good, however, that the police officer was reinstated later on. The director also issued an apology and described his actions as brought about by moments of insanity. On another issue, it appears that Gibson does not look too kindly on women. He has been heard saying that women and men are not equal. We hope that the actor-director realizes that each of us was given different talents.
