Actor and director Mel Gibson met with Costa Rica’s president on Monday to discuss making a financial donation to help the Central American nation’s Indians.
“He wants to help the indigenous population here and wants to know how to channel the funds,” President Oscar Arias told reporters outside his home, where he met with Gibson for about an hour.
Arias said Gibson — who starred in such Hollywood blockbusters as the “Lethal Weapon” series and directed last year’s Mayan epic “Apocalypto” — would return to Costa Rica in a month to arrange how much money he would donate and to which organization.
Gibson has avoided the press in prior trips to Costa Rica, but spent a few minutes answering questions from reporters.
Mel Gibson used to be so HOT, but he hasn’t aged gracefully at all. Looking a bit decrepit these days. I guess that’s what hard drinking does to a person’s face.
Well, at least he’s using all that money for something good.
