Mel Gibson now has to deal with the aftermath of his racist a$$ rants. Leonardo DiCaprio was once apart of Mel Gibson’s new movie about vikings until his racist outburst were put on blast. According to Radaronline.com, a source close to Leonardo claims there’s no way he in hell he would continue to work with Mel Gibson:

“Leo has earned the right to pick and choose who he works with and Mel Gibson is not one of them.” A source close to DiCaprio said the star did not want to risk his reputation, with being associated with him.

Mel was interviewed on Sunday but refused to answer questions about the incident, citing his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.

Don’t stop now Mel, Speak Yo Mind!!!

Leonardo DiCaprio has pulled out of the untitled Mel Gibson directed viking pic amidst allegations that Mel punched Oksana Grigorieva and their baby in the face. Which makes sense. Everything DiCaprio has touched so far has turned to gold. The latest being the awesome Inception which is still #1 at the box office. There’s little ... read more

Smart move.

As far as we can tell, the chances of Mel Gibson recovering from his domestic violence scandal are slim-to-none. We know we're not the only ones who feel that way, but it's nice to have a little validation from an A-list movie star, like Leonardo DiCaprio.

Sources are reporting that Leo has pulled out from starring in Mel's upcoming viking flick. It is safe to say that with the impeccable reputation that he has garnered himself over the years and the wave of acclaim he is riding right now due to Inception, Leo doesn't want to risk his good name to be in a movie directed by a douchey, violent pig!

We sure as hell don't blame him!

So you've lost your reputation, credibility and any chance of making this movie. Is there anything left to take from Mel at this point? Because of there is, let's no dilly-dally. He doesn't deserve a speck of hope that he can be so profane and get away wih it.

Gee, wonder if Mel will be leaving Leo any messages now that he is left???

I have a confession to make: I didn’t listen to the last audio release of Mel Gibson venting the frustration of several failed lifetimes at his girlfriend, nor did I listen to all the spittle-filled voicemails he left her. After listening the first five tapes and wasting several minutes of my life trying to process the meanest most threatening vitriol I’ve ever heard, I’m done. Just a few seconds of that vile crap would have been enough, and as I’ve mentioned before I’ve never witnessed anything like it. Even movies don’t show villians ranting like that for several minutes.

Still there are even more tapes/audio segments, and Radar head David Perel tells E! Online that they’ll continue to release them, and that “We will be posting them on the site as we continue to report on the Mel Gibson story.” Perel told Howard Stern that Radar has a full 30 minutes of audio from Mel.

Now that we know Mel for the verbally and (”allegedly”) physically abusive creep he truly is, he’s box office poison despite all the ways his people try to spin the “poor Mel” story. There’s almost no one in Hollywood willing to publicly speak out on his behalf, and a recent sympathetic profile in People Magazine included positive quotes from just three industry people I’d never heard of. We can add thoughtful actor Leonardo DiCaprio to the list of people trying to disassociate themselves with Gibson. DiCaprio has quietly dropped out of a Gibson-directed Viking film he was set to star in.

Leonardo DiCaprio is withdrawing from a Mel Gibson-directed flick about vikings in the wake of the domestic abuse scandal, RadarOnline.com has exclusively confirmed.

“Not a chance,” said a source, close to the Inception star, when asked if he was still planning to star in Gibson’s next project.

The decision is a major setback for the Oscar-winning actor/director, who is facing allegations of domestic abuse and child endangerment.

It also lends support to critics who are suggesting Mel won’t be able to recover from the Oksana Grigorieva scandal…

The viking film was to be DiCaprio’s first picture with Mel.

A source close to DiCaprio said the star, who is currently basking in the release of his wildly acclaimed box-office topping movie Inception, did not want to risk his reputation, with being associated with Mel.

“Leo has earned the right to pick and choose who he works with and Mel Gibson is not one of them,” the source added.

The as-yet untitled project is being produced by Graham King and Mel’s Icon Productions.

Variety had previously reported DiCaprio had long been fascinated by Viking culture and was poised to play one in a storyline that will be as unsparing as Mel’s other period directing efforts, Braveheart, The Passion of the Christ and Apocalypto.

I’m fascinated by viking culture too thanks to Alex Skarsgard’s character’s flashbacks on True Blood. I mean that in a purely superficial/stare at the eye candy kind of way.

I’m only trying to change the subject because I don’t want to think about Mel and his crazy meanness anymore. As I was writing this two more stories came out on Radar Online - an e-mail that Oksana sent her lawyer describing Mel’s attack on her on January 7 and yet another voicemail, said to be Mel’s “final” voicemail, made on February 20, the day after he made all those mean calls. He tries to make nice and claims that he wants “to talk reasonably about schedules.” The time to talk reasonably had long since passed.

TMZ also reports that Oksana was offered a $15 million dollar payoff to keep all her evidence of Mel’s abuse confidential. She is said to initially have agreed, only to back out of the deal. Radar Online claims that they never paid Oksana for the audio tapes.

Yesterday, Us Weekly released part of their epic cover story, which is basically a series of excerpts from Andrew Morton’s new unauthorized biography of Angelina. The online article was all about how Angelina’s mom Marcheline “abandoned” her right after Marcheline and Jon Voight split up. It all seemed very cheap. But Us Weekly also teased something I had never heard before: that Angelina might have had a little something with Leonardo DiCaprio. Now Crushable has a few more excerpts and they are… disappointing. No sexy details about Leo-Angie bedroom knife play, just an awkward story about Angelina and Leonardo taking a shower together? The hell? Here’s more:

Thanks to her very very very public relationship with Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie has gained a reputation as a husband stealing maneater. And, according to an upcoming book, Angelina: An Unauthorized Biography by celebrity biographer Andrew Morton, Brad’s not the first married man Ang has gone after, and certainly not the first co-star she’s bedded, lusted after or entranced.

Angelina’s list of conquests and flirtations includes some fellow celebrities that you may have never would think to romantically link to the mother of six, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Mick Jagger and recent co-star Johnny Depp, who the author quotes an Angelina friend as saying, “If she cold get something going with Depp, she would leave Brad.” Here, we break down the weirdest alleged hook-ups Angelina has had over the years — not counting ex-husband Billy Bob Thornton — as outlined in the recent issue of Us Weekly, which has clips from Andrew’s unauthorized book.

Timothy Hutton
According to Andrew’s book, Timothy and David Duchovny battled for Angelina’s love on the set of their movie Playing God, and Tim prevailed. They dated “quietly” while Angie took drum lessons to impress him. Weird.

Leonardo DiCaprio
The pair showered together in his hotel suite, but Angelina reportedly told friends that there was “little sexual rapport” between the two. Ouch.

Colin Farrell
The Irish actor was reportedly falling in love with Angelina on the set of Alexander, but she denies they were ever intimate.

Ralph Fiennes
Angelina’s Beyond Borders co-star could be one of Angelina’s mystery lovers she’s talked about meeting for rendezvoux in London.

The Ralph Fiennes rumor still works for me, big time. And I do think Colin and Angelina had something going on, despite her denials and obfuscations. Up until yesterday, I had never heard a whiff about Leo and Angelina, and the shower story seems fishy as hell, although I’ll buy that if the two of them were ever together, naked, they wouldn’t have much sexual chemistry, and that would be on Leo and his failings as a romantic lead. But David Duchovny? I’m still into him! Yes, he’s a douche and a “sex addict”. But there’s something about his deep, lazy voice and his bedroom eyes… damn. That would have been hot. Why did Angelina go for Hutton?!?

Okay, not so much in these photos though:

A little Ralph & Colin to clean the palate:
