Golden Globes host Ricky Gervais made Mad Max even madder. “What the f*** is sugar t***?,” Gervais asked the Lethal Weapon star during the live telecast, with the NBC censors bleeping out the offensive slang.
According to a report by Dailymail.co.uk, the unscripted sparring between them began midway through the show, when Gibson was called on to present for best drama nominee, Mad Max: Fury Road. ‘I wasn’t judging him, but now I find myself in the awkward position of having to introduce him,’ Gervais quipped about the infamous 2010 joke. “I blame NBC for this terrible situation.’ ‘Mel has forgotten all about it, that’s what drinking does,” added Gervais, who then searched for something nice to say about the actor. ‘I’d rather have a drink with him than Bill Cosby.’ ‘I love seeing Ricky every three years because it reminds me to get a colonoscopy,’ the original Mad Max star fired back.
