Gibson tops Film Threat powerless list(AP)Updated: 2006-11-18 09:41 LOS ANGELES - Two decades after being chosen as People magazine's first sexiest man alive, Mel Gibson now tops a very different kind of list: Film Threat's annual "Frigid 50: The Coldest People in Hollywood."
"He apologized, he got sick of apologizing, he refused to apologize anymore, he didn't want to address the issue, he spoke on nationally broadcast news shows, he spoke at synagogues, he met with Jewish Officials," Film Threat's editors wrote. "But in the end, in all his `I'm really not anti-Semitic' posturing, he never bothered to address how irresponsible he was for driving under the influence in the first place. And now he's got a new movie opening, `Apocalypto,' and the question becomes: who cares?" Gibson, 50, the star of the "Lethal Weapon" movies and director of "The Passion of the Christ," was People's sexiest man alive on the magazine's inaugural list in 1985. Also among Film Threat's "Frigid 50" are Borat ("How can the top box office
winner for two straight weeks be on the Frigid 50 already? Simple: There's no
future for Borat."), Lindsay Lohan and the Internet phenomenon Lonelygirl15. Tom
Cruise and Katie Holmes, who topped the 2005 list, came in at No. 10 ¡ª the day
before their scheduled gala wedding in Italy. |
