The 55-year-old actor Mel Gibson, who was accused of domestic violence by ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva last year, compared his life to a “three-ring circus” and explained while everyone goes through tough points at one time or another, it is important to “get through it”.
He said, “We all go through things that are hard to bear at some point or other, and we have to get through it. You don’t want to hear about my three-ring circus.” The Braveheart star, who took a hiatus from acting from 2003 until 2010, also revealed he underwent a “metamorphosis” during his career break, which helped to make appearing in movies interesting for him once again.

Cruz welcomes signs of ageing
The 37-year-old actress Penelope Cruz, who gave birth to her first child Leo with her husband Javier Bardem in January, can’t wait to have wrinkles because she believes they tell a person’s life story. She said, “When I hear a woman who is in her early 30s is worrying about growing old, I just want to slap her. When I’m 80, I want to look in the mirror and see an 80-year-old woman. My grandmother had so many wrinkles and every wrinkle told a story. I want to experience every year of my life for what it is. I just don’t like how women complain about growing old.”
