Mel Gibson's Girlfriend is Reportedly Knocked Up

I share a birthday with Mel Gibson. I remember when it used to be cool to tell people that. Yeah, big name, talented celebrity and I share a birthday. Awesome, right? But, now? Well. It's more like hey, look what loser trainwreck of a man shares my birthday! Fun! He's just not aged so gracefully, you know? Although he was still able to grab the attention of much-younger Russian woman Oksana Grigorieva, age 39, who, apparently, is having his kid, according to TMZ. Nothing like having your eighth kid when you're in your early fifties. I'm sure he'll fit right in at the playground.

For those who missed it, Mel was married for 29 years before his wife, Robyn -- and mother to his seven children -- filed for divorce last month. Nothing would get me to file divorce papers quicker than finding out my husband had gotten another woman pregnant. Even better, I just found this quote of Mel's: "Life is about love and commitment and screw anyone who thinks that's a cliché." Apparently he literally meant screw anyone who thinks that's a cliché.

Oksana is reportedly in her second trimester and the family -- ex-wife Robyn and the kids, ranging in age from 29 to 10 -- has already been told.

Listen, stuff happens and divorce is sometimes a necessary and painful fact of life. It's too bad that after so many years of marriage, Mel and Robyn couldn't work it out, but nothing puts the damper on reconciling like bringing a Russian musician to the mix. And I wouldn't care quite as much if the man in question of knocking up his mistress wasn't so sanctimonious regarding morals and commitment and doing the right thing.

I share a birthday with George Clooney. Here's hoping that remains an interesting tidbit instead of a shameful admission.

Mel really has lost every bit of appeal he once had for me. He and Tom Cruise should form a club. They've both found ways to make it hard to watch them on-screen.

Is it just me or does the mistress look a tiny itty bit like Octomom? Same Skeletor-ish face.

Mel is a disgrace. Didn't he used to tout himself as a faithful Catholic? Pretty sure the Vatican isn't going to approve of his new lifestyle.

Agree with Mouse and Erin- this guy is such a lousy bastard. Does anyone stay happily married until they die? Maybe don't answer that...

Heh.

Self-righteousness is all about saying "I'm a bad man, I'm just a bad, bad man." Whenever someone says anything self-righteous read: "This thing that I look down on people for? This is the thing I am ashamed of."

That formula barely ever fails. I'm not sure it ever does fail.
