RadarOnline.com reports 54-year-old actor Mel Gibson made one of the "most explosive, racist, and vile outburts by a celebrity ever caught on tape." The Oscar-winning actor told his former girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva that the way she was dressed would get her "raped by a pack of n***ers" according to RadarOnline.com.
Reports indicate Gibson's racist and sexist words were caught on audio tape. Among his threats, the actor tells Oksana he will burn down her home.
This isn't the first time the "Braveheart" actor revealed his racist side. In 2006, a drunken Gibson made anti-Semitic comments when charged with a DUI.
The actor and his ex-girlfriend have been in a custody battle in court.
Among the 30 minutes of audio tape, here's a bit of what Gibson says to Oksana:
"You're an embarrassment to me."
"You look like a f***ing pig in heat, and if you get raped by a pack of n***ers, it will be your fault."
"How dare you act like such a bitch when I have been so f***ing nice."
"I am going to come and burn down the f***ing house down, but you will blow me first."
The NAACP and the Anti-Defamation League denounced Gibson's statement. The NAACP states, "An apology is insufficient given his history of racism, sexism and Antisemitism."
