According to a post on Courtney Love fansite Courtney-Love.org, Mel Gibson’s true role in Hollywood is not Resident Anti-Semite/Action Hero but rather Addiction Counselor to the Stars. A source close to Love reportedly said that Courtney considers Gibson a personal savior. Once, a year or so ago, Gibson apparently straightened Love out when she was in a bad place. “Gibson tried to enter her hotel room to help her but she would not let him in” this source reports. “He hung out until a delivery came to her room, and then he snuck in the door behind the delivery guy.” According to the source Gibson talked Love down and convinced her to go back to rehab. Then together they snorted all the smack the delivery guy brought and made out like teenagers. Just kidding.
So how did Courtney react when Gibson experienced his own global PR crisis this July? (If you just got back from Siberia or are otherwise pop-culturally clueless, Gibson was arrested for suspicion of drunk driving and hurled a colorful array of anti-Semitic slurs at the arresting officer.) “She will always love and admire Mel for what he did for her,” the source emoted.
It’s just a big circle of help-me-help-you celebrity love over there in Hollywood, as Courtney — perhaps in memory of that crazy night when Mel taught her to respect herself again — also recently offered her been-there-too empathy to Whitney Houston.
