In one of the most explosive, racist and vile outbursts by a celebrity ever caught on tape, Mel Gibson told the mother of his love child that the way she was dressed would get her "raped by a pack of n****rs," RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively. Drunken Mel previously shocked the world with his anti-Semetic comments when busted for DUI. Now, the new racist outburst has taken the Oscar winner to an even deeper low. You can bet Danny Glover is not answering his phone calls right now.

Were the crocodile tears real from Chris Brown at the BET Awards? An insider tells UsMagazine.com the crying was fake. Before he took the stage to belt out "Man in the Mirror," a backstage source tells Us one of Brown's bodyguards gave the singer, 21, tear-inducing eye drops. Brown's rep denies it, telling Us that this account is "completely untrue." But the witness says Brown definitely used drops.

TMZ has learned ... Kelsey Grammer's wife, Camille Grammer has filed for divorce.

Silence is golden, but is it worth 0 million? It could be what Tiger Woods gives estranged wife Elin Nordegren in a divorce agreement being hammered out now. Sources tell People.com that Nordegren could land "about 0 million," a number that has increased steadily throughout the months of negotiations. The catch is she has to stay tight-lipped about their marriage.

Larry King is heading into semi-retirement. After 25 years, his program Larry King Live will wrap up sometime this fall, the 76-year-old confirmed in a statement Tuesday. Citing a desire to spend more time with his family, King said "I'm looking forward to the future and what my next chapter will bring, but for now it's time to hang up my nightly suspenders." Us Weekly says the veteran journalist will still appear on the network in occasional specials. King and his seventh wife Shawn, 50, have two sons. After rumors of infidelity on both sides, they called off divorce plans last month. America's Got Talent judge Piers Morgan is set to replace King.

There has been a lot of rumors about whether Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are in fact dating or just playing up their romance for the cameras to help the 'Twilight' franchise. Well, 'Eclipse' producer Wyck Godfrey may have officially spilled the beans ... we think. When TIME asked about what's exactly going on between Pattinson and Stewart, Godfrey revealed, "The thing I do think about is, Oh my God, I hope they stay together. Because it could be awkward on set in the next movie if they have a huge falling out. It's like, Wow, they have to portray this love story through two more movies. God, I hope they stay together; please stay together. That's what affects my day-to-day," Godfrey adds.

From the rose to the thorns: the Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi split is getting even nastier. The former Bachelor duo, who had avoided contact since their breakup, reunited for the cameras in an interview with host Chris Harrison set to air July 5 on ABC. According to People.com, it did not go well. "Vienna calls Jake 'a liar' and 'a fame whore'," an ABC press release says. "Jake feels Vienna always undermines him and tears him down. They face off about who broke up with whom. Vienna defends herself against allegations of infidelity." After what ABC calls an "intense verbal confrontation," Vienna "bursts into tears and storms out, ending the interview."

The woman who plays Angela on the NBC show "The Office" is pulling the plug on her marriage ... to a man who happens to be a writer and a producer on the show. TMZ has obtained divorce papers filed by Angela Kinsey last week in L.A. County Superior Court, in which the actress cites irreconcilable differences with her husband of 10 years Warren Lieberstein. In the docs, Kinsey has requested joint legal and physical custody of their two-year-old daughter. The two have reportedly been separated since 2009 -- but Angela's rep has stated that they remain friends.

Sandra Bullock and Jesse James divorce...
Sources tell TMZ both Sandra and Jesse signed the final documents last week. Sealed documents have been filed with the clerk's office in Travis County, Texas -- sources tell us they are the papers making the divorce final. Sandra filed for divorce back on April 23, saying the marriage "has become insupportable because of discord or conflict of personalities."

Turns out it was an earthquake in Canada, earlier today, that had some folks in Cincy feeling shaky. We called Michelle Boutillette from Local 12 for the breakdown. Take a listen.

Even if the World Cup never grabbed your attention before, chances are you are hearing about the big U.S. win. Here's the story courtesy of SoccerFanhouse.com.
The best player on the U.S. national team confirmed his place as the best player in U.S. history at the moment when his team and his country needed him most. Thanks to a lightning-quick stoppage-time counterattack started and finished by 28-year-old Landon Donovan, the Americans overcame an amazing series of earlier misses and their Algerian opponents to win 1-0, and advance to the World Cup's round of 16 as the winners of Group C.

The circumstances could not have been more dramatic or gut-wrenching. A 20th minute goal from Clint Dempsey was called back because of an erroneous offside call from the Belgian linesman, perhaps setting the U.S. up as tragic figures in a play ruined by wayward referees.

But the U.S. had no one but themselves to blame after that. They dominated the match, proving far more threatening on the attack than the Algerians and creating numerous blue-chip scoring chances. The opponents, also with an opportunity to advance if they won thanks to England's 1-0 win over Slovenia, saw their best chance to score hit the crossbar in just the sixth minute and struggled to create much consistently from then on.

Since we are on the topic of the World Cup. Have you noticed the hotties that play the game? Here's a link to some of them. Woot, woot!
