Celebrity Justice
EXCLUSIVE: Video of Mel at Moonshadows

TMZ has obtained exclusive video shot on a cell phone by a patron who was at Moonshadows Malibu the night of Mel Gibson's arrest for DUI. The video was shot in the patio-bar area of the restaurant just after midnight, approximately two hours before Gibson was arrested.



The video shows a jovial Mel talking and laughing with patrons. He is holding what appears to be a bottle of Pellegrino sparkling water.

We want to hear from you - LITERALLY! Call TMZ's toll-free number 866-895-8877 and sound off (but not for more than 30 seconds)! Start with your name and tell us where you live.

16. Okay, enough Mel...it must be a slow day in Hollywood...I feel sorry for some of these stars, wherever they go they can't be "normal" people...everybody's got a camera, a mic, something to capture them. Maybe that's why a lot of them now live in cities we never heard of.

17. Maks has it right. Me too, I got DUI, spent night in jail, no bail, and smiling in my mug shot. Arrest report about 3-4 pages, included NONE of my rantings and complaints. Also, so true Maks about the 2 hours to fill out damn ticket.
Also one-hour or more to get to the station for breath test paperwork.
Harvey Levin, you are acting like Mel is a serial killer. Now will you make it your mission to find out what Nick Nolte or Robt Downy etc said at their DUI arrests?
What do you think suspects say? "have a great day?" MOVE ON, TMZ.

18. OMG TMZ, you people are sick. This media obsession with Mel is outta hand. I agree that prejudiced remarks are made about Christians, Catholics, Muslims, Arabs, blacks, Latinos, Asians, Native Americans, etc etc....where is the outrage then? God, Mel has apologized more so than any other celebrity who has messed up has. Leave the man alone!!

19. are you people kidding me? This is enough! the man has said he's sorry and has more than paid his price for his mistake. WTF TMZ? i hope that you're this upset if another celebrity makes an anti-Christian or anti-Arab remark. You people are hypocrites.

21. the women in the pictures told the press that in NO WAY was Mel acting inappropriately and that he was talking about how his wife is a SAINT and telling them funny stories about his FAMILY. Yet the media makes it out like he's cheating on his wife. he took pics with fans and was down to earth and hung out with them. I wish i was at Moonshadows that night so that i could have hung out and talked to Mel too. He sounded like a gracious movie star. the way that they are trying to kick him when he's down is sickening...and i agree: where is this level of outrage when remarks are made about OTHER minority groups? And they say that the Jews don't run the media...right.

23. Hey TMZ,

I am going to be watching you. The next time Hollywood produces a racist or anti-Catholic or anti-Christian film, or if another celebrity talks shit about someone else's religion or ethnicity (including that bitch Sarah Silverman), I am going to see what your response to all of it is. My guess? you won't say shit.

Leave Mel alone and get a LIFE! he has paid MORE than his price for his mistake. I am still watching his film this December because the man is fucking brilliant and a better guy than most of the Hollywood celebrity trash making money today.

again, LEAVE MEL ALONE. this is getting sick and only reaffirming that the Jews do run the media.

24. " may the one who has never sin throw the first stone."
If Harvey Levin can look at me in the eyes and swear that he has never made any derogatory remark about anyone, l would be amazed. After how he is on T.V, l doubt it.
Let it go, you are annoying.
I also saw the Passion, thought the Romans were the bad ones, the jews, may have condemmed Christ, but the Romans did the torture, l did not see them make a big deal about it. Get a life Levin.

26. I'm soo sick of this..Every channel, every show, every radio station is talking about this nonsense..I'm getting ready for school, im watching FOX 11 (only watch Good Day LA) and they talk about this for like 10 minutues, then i get in my car, 106.7 is on talking about this...GET OVER IT! Let the guy say whatever he wants! You care more about him talking shit about Jews while he was drunk than him actually "driving drunk"..He's going to have to go to all these jewish communites to say sorry, instead of going to communites to say im sorry i drove drunk. It's a true fact that Jews control the media and tv, so you're all probably having a kick out of this. Get over it! Boycott his movies, cancel his contracts, i dont care..just stop making this a "breaking news" story. There's a huge war going on, and was the main coverage on tv and now noone cares..As soon as a celebrity does anything stupid, thats more important..This explains why the American people know nothing about the war or anything about other countries..If only you would all watch news outside of U.S. you would think completely different. By the way, I agree with KAT below me, if Mel said anything about Muslims, noone would make a big deal like this..Just like when Zidane headbutted the Italian guy for saying a racist remark, noone in the U.S. cared and if they did, didn't defend Zidane...Anyways, this makes me sick and you all know that he's saying sorry just for his reputation because everyone in the Entertainment industry is Jewish...One more thing, we are all racist, so what if Mel is anti-semintic, does that mean hes going to actually do something harmful? I don't know..but has he done anything harmful now? No..how about you leave Mel alone and focus on the people that might actually Harm you..I really needed to let this out and Harvey, thank you for letting your viewers leave comments..it feels good to see that other people agree with me, at least on some issues..

28. Mel is a dumbass--he brough all of this on himself. He is homophobic, anti semetic and thinks he himself is Christ. Boo-hoo, I'm a drunk so plese feel sorry for me. Give me a break--grow up and stop acting so bipolar all the time. The only ones who are dumber are the fools who come on here supporting his actions and his crap movies. Passion of the Christ was the biggest load of bullshit ever. The only reason it did well was because Christians are like sheep and want to believe the bible word for word or worse a hollywood "stars" interpretation of it. It was the most narcissistic movie ever. I laughed the whole way through.
