Mel Gibson Washington, Jan 18 (ANI): British comedian Ricky Gervais poked fun at Mel Gibson’s drinking habit while hosting the Golden Globe Awards.

The 48-year-old star drank a glass of beer on stage and said to the audience that he had already “had a couple” pints.

“I’m not going to lie to you, I hope I’ve not offended anyone — It’s not my fault,” Usmagazine quoted him as saying before pointing to his beer.

“I like a drink as much as the next man, unless the next man is Mel Gibson!” he added.

Gibson was charged with drunk driving in 2006

However, the ‘Braveheart’ star laughed it off, pretended to slur his words and made a joke of his own.

“I’m here to talk about Inglourious Basterds,” he said. “Or as actors like to call them, directors!” (ANI)
