Winona Ryder Knew Mel Gibson Was Antisemitic 6Share

In a new interview with GQ, Winona Ryder talks about how she was the first person who knew Mel Gibson was homophobic and antisemitic. She says she was at one of those "big Hollywood parties," (the kind with the shoes and the pool and the blopop rings and the monkeys walking around with the chickens on the leashes) and she was with her gay friend talking to Mel Gibson, and he made a really horrible joke -- a joke bad enough, in fact, that the monkeys put the shoes on the chickens, shoved the blopops down their throats and pushed them into the pool, killing them all. Ryder says "somehow" Gibson found out she was Jewish (yeah, SOMEHOW! As in like "oh, you know what's funny? Your overwhelming Judaism that I can see from the way you're holding that martini and not blowing me!) and then he said something about "oven dodgers" and something homophobic. Ryder continued and said that after the incident at the party, she told everyone she could about Gibson's antisemitism and his homophobic tendencies, and no one believed her.

Yes yes, obviously we believe Winona now that we've heard tapes of Mel Gibson talking about how his ex-girlfriend was never talented and how the cleaning lady works for him and not her. If we could issue you a giant apology, Winona, and send you flowers from every country around the world, we would. But we can't because those royals over there in Britain are getting married, and they don't care about your little mishap with the son of a Holocaust denier. But we really are sorry...especially because you didn't get to film a sequel to S1mOne to take your mind off the ordeal.
