AceShowbiz - Mel Gibson, the 68-year-old action star, was spotted on a last-minute Christmas grocery run at Whole Foods in Malibu, California. Sporting a gray beard and disheveled hair, Gibson looked sharp in a dark gray blazer over a navy blue polo and jeans.
The outing came just weeks after Gibson criticized Harris as having a "low IQ" in the lead-up to her election defeat. At LAX in October, Gibson had laughed off a question about his preferred presidential candidate, suggesting that he knew what it would be like to "let her in."
Gibson has been vocal in his disdain for both major political parties throughout his career. He abstained from voting for major candidates in 2016 and criticized George W. Bush's Middle East wars. However, in 2021, he was seen greeting Donald Trump at a UFC event.
Despite facing backlash for anti-Semitic comments over the years, Gibson apologized for his 2006 anti-Semitic tirade and expressed regret to the Jewish community. Actor Andrew Garfield recently suggested it was time to move past Gibson's judgment.
Despite the criticism, Gibson's grocery run highlight the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. Gibson's political stance provide a glimpse into the diverse conversations that unfold during this time.
