Agency Drops Mel Gibbson Hours After Audio Rant Released

The expletive filled, Mel Gibson racist rant was released early Friday afternoon, and the backlash has already started. Just hours later his long-time agency dropped him from their client list for fear of embarrassment of being tied to him.

On top of this Gibson is currently being investigated by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department over allegations of domestic violence towards his former girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva.Not much of a stretch after hearing the tape I'm sure. Looks like Mel will be bargain hunting for cheap health insurance soon.

Just last week Gibson’s agent of more than 30 years, Ed Limato, passed away.

“It is rare for William Morris Endeavor to dump an actor with such an A-list, high profile – but after they heard the tapes they probably would have realized her committed career suicide,’ said Hollywood Image consultant, Michael Sands. “It could have destroyed the agency’s image to have kept him on board.”

Mel Gibson Racist and Offensive Rant Audio Released

It was only a legend up until a few hours ago. Now it has been released wordlwide for everyone to hear. A recording of Mel Gibson spewing some very offensive remarks to Oksana Grigorieva, the mother of his love child. Only place you can hear this right now is here. (Warning: may be highly offensive to some users. Graphic and racist language is used.)

If Mel Gibson wasn't hated enough already, this certainly will put another nail in the coffin. There is no hiding from this one as it offends everyone under the sun. He won't have any work except hawking noxycut on infomercials by the time this over. From African Americans, to any woman. It is impossible to describe. They list the audio in text form at the like above too if you can't listen to it right away although you have probably seen that already. Listening to it just makes it all that more obscene.

Lebron James LEaving Cleveland Makes People Mad (Especially Dan Gilbert)

There probably isn't a bigger entertainment story this week than the Lebron James decision on what team he is going to sign with. This is by far the most publicized free agent move in sports history. Lebron James had a 1 HOUR special last night to reveal where he was going to go. It was the Miami Heat to join Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh to form a Dream Team.

Nobody is more upset than Cleveland fans, and I can't blame them. They feel betrayed, and really I would be upset if a player like this left my home team. Fans must feel like someone died. They are all gonna need a healthy batch of diet supplements after their bouts with depression.

Cleveland Cavaliers majority owner, Dan Gilbert seems to be as upset as anyone about Lebron's "desertion". He released this statement to the media today:

Dear Cleveland, All Of Northeast Ohio and Cleveland Cavaliers Supporters Wherever You May Be Tonight;

As you now know, our former hero, who grew up in the very region that he deserted this evening, is no longer a Cleveland Cavalier.

This was announced with a several day, narcissistic, self-promotional build-up culminating with a national TV special of his "decision" unlike anything ever "witnessed" in the history of sports and probably the history of entertainment.

Clearly, this is bitterly disappointing to all of us.

The good news is that the ownership team and the rest of the hard-working, loyal, and driven staff over here at your hometown Cavaliers have not betrayed you nor NEVER will betray you.

There is so much more to tell you about the events of the recent past and our more than exciting future. Over the next several days and weeks, we will be communicating much of that to you.

You simply don't deserve this kind of cowardly betrayal.

You have given so much and deserve so much more.

In the meantime, I want to make one statement to you tonight:

"I PERSONALLY GUARANTEE THAT THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS WILL WIN AN NBA CHAMPIONSHIP BEFORE THE SELF-TITLED FORMER ‘KING’ WINS ONE"

You can take it to the bank.

If you thought we were motivated before tonight to bring the hardware to Cleveland, I can tell you that this shameful display of selfishness and betrayal by one of our very own has shifted our "motivation" to previously unknown and previously never experienced levels.

Some people think they should go to heaven but NOT have to die to get there.

Sorry, but that's simply not how it works.

This shocking act of disloyalty from our home grown "chosen one" sends the exact opposite lesson of what we would want our children to learn. And "who" we would want them to grow-up to become.

But the good news is that this heartless and callous action can only serve as the antidote to the so-called "curse" on Cleveland, Ohio.

The self-declared former "King" will be taking the "curse" with him down south. And until he does "right" by Cleveland and Ohio, James (and the town where he plays) will unfortunately own this dreaded spell and bad karma.

Just watch.

Sleep well, Cleveland.

Tomorrow is a new and much brighter day....

I PROMISE you that our energy, focus, capital, knowledge and experience will be directed at one thing and one thing only:

DELIVERING YOU the championship you have long deserved and is long overdue....

Dan Gilbert
Majority Owner
Cleveland Cavaliers
