Britney Spears and Mel Gibson eat out

Heaven knows what prompted Mel Gibson to eat dinner with Britney Spears at a Russian restaurant. These two were neighbors before Britney’s chaotic lifestyle drove Mel out of his Malibu home.

Clad in jeans, a green top and boots and chewing gum, Spears arrived at the Romanov restaurant with her friend Victoria. Gibson, accompanied by a few friends, soon joined them in the restaurant’s private dining room, which features a 24-karat gold leaf ceiling, an ornate fireplace and a library stocked with such works as Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace. For two hours the group dined on filet mignon and Russian specialties, and drank water and soft drinks.

I expect that in those two hours Mel Gibson scolded Britney for causing such a ruckus in Malibu while Britney simply nodded her head to feign understanding and directed the waiter to “keep the fish a comin’.”
