Mel Gibson Claims To Have Slapped Oskana But Not Hit Her

Oskana Grigorieva has made numerous accusations against Mel Gibson, one of them being that he has been physically violent towards her. Gibson has until now either ignored the claims or denied them. Not any more. In a sworn declaration, Gibson admitted to slapping Oskana, though not hitting or punching her.

He claims that he slapped her because he feared for the safety of his daughter. According to Gibson, Oskana was so out of control and hysterical that she was putting their daughter in danger. Oskana’s take is a lot different, of course. She claims that Mel punched her in the head and in the mouth during an argument. The blow to the mouth was so forceful, according to Oskana that two of her teet were knocked out.

During an argument, one of many, Mel stated in the declaration, Oskana ran out of the house during the night with the baby. Mel, knowing how dangerous the grounds were at night, asked her to come back in. She did, but then begin to swing the baby around in a manner that was erratic. The baby’s head was being flung around. Mel, fearful, that the baby would experience Shaken Baby Syndrome, sprung into action. He slapped Oskana in the face one time. According to him, he was attempting to get her to come to her senses.

Well, again, that’s Mel take. Remember, there are three sides to every story, each party’s side and then the truth. Who knows what went down but it doesn’t sound good.

Oksana Grigorieva insist she never had relations with ex bodygurad

Mel Gibson's ex Oksana Grigorieva and her lawyer have slammed her former bodyguard's claims that he shared an intimate relationship with her.

Oksana and attorney Daniel Horowitz called bodyguard Kristian Herzog "Half blackmailer, and half psychopath," reports TMZ.com.

Horowitz said Herzog is a "complete liar," who got the job by lying and saying he was Jack Nicholson''s bodyguard.

Oskana Fires Bodyguard

It looks like this who English-language barrier thing continues to cause problems for Oskana. The embattled, “baby momma” of Mel Gibson seems to have been duped by her bodyguard, Kristen Otto Herzog. Well, Herzog is reportedly a scam artist and someone not fond of telling the truth.

One of his biggest “whoppers was that he was working for Oskana free of charge, courtesy of Jack Nicholson. Nicholson was supposedly footing the bill so that she wouldn’t have to. It turned out, that it was all lies All of it. Jack’s people denied even knowing Herzog.

Herzog has also had some pretty serious legal troubles. He has been charged with two felonies, impersonated a cop (complete with handguns and bullets) and spent time in jail.

Mel Gibson (the baby daddy) seemed to already have had an inkling that something was awry. He had a restraining order placed on Herzog before all of this damaging info was leaked.

Oskana was alerted by Mel but was unmoved, at least initially. That has since changed. Since everything has come to the forefront, Oskana has changed her tune and has given Herzog the boot. Hopefully, he goes quietly and without any issues.

Mel Gibson violence claims investigated

Police in Los Angeles have been investigating claims that Mel Gibson was violent towards his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva during an alleged incident in January.

Radar Online obtained an audio recording in which Gibson supposedly admits to punching the Russian singer, saying that she "deserved it".

According to TMZ, the website's claims prompted officials at the LA County Sheriff's Department to open a domestic violence investigation.

CELEBRITY SCANDAL : OKSANA - Sorry to hear about Mel Gibson’s divorce

Mel Gibson’s wife Robyn shocked Hollywood yesterday when she filed for divorce from the actor, whom she’s been married to for almost three decades. And today rumors are abound that Gibson was romantically linked to a Russian singer named Oksana Kolesnikova.

The "Lethal Weapon" actor was photographed last month in Costa Rica with a bikini-clad woman believed to be the Kolesnikova. However, celebrity website TMZ tracked down a spokesperson for Kolesnikova, who said there was no affair of the heart.

Sorry to hear about Mel Gibson’s divorce. Somehow Oksana is being linked to Mr. Gibson, but there are no emotional ties between the two that I am aware of. Oksana has in the past entertained Mr. Gibson with her piano music as he dined at the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Yes, I definitely welcome the opportunity to set the record straight, our Oksana is not romantically involved with Mr. Gibson.

Court papers reveal that Mel and Robyn, 52, have been separated since August 26, 2006 — a month after Gibson was caught driving under the influence and made a string of anti-Semitic rants.

Oksana Kolesnikova is a Russian with a distinctly American story: an unknown artist striving to make it big in the music business. Of course, not many boast a repertoire in which Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Led Zeppelin go toe to toe with Bach, Mozart and Schumann. But they all share the same American dream, even if this one happens to have sprung from Russia and Rome.

"For those of you who would like to hear full versions, stop by my booth. I'll play you any of them, or any ones you request," she tells the listeners, her words tinged with the accent of a person born in Siberia and raised in Kazakhstan -- before settling with her family in St. Petersburg in 1993.

She was a little girl in Russia studying classical piano from the age of 5, winning her first competition at 9. But once a week, she loved to watch an overdubbed, mid '80s sitcom starring Yakov Smirnoff called What A Country.
