"Mel & Mel"
Uproar over Giorgia Meloni’s celebrity selfie
Italy's right-wing Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has attracted a lot of criticism for a good-humored selfie with Hollywood star Mel Gibson. While a state of emergency was declared in parts of the country due to flooding, Meloni was clearly having fun with the actor.
On Instagram, where she commented on a selfie of herself with Gibson with "Mel & Mel", the leader of the far-right party Fratelli d'Italia (Brothers of Italy) received over 120,000 likes. However, there were also nasty comments. One user wrote succinctly: "We're sinking in the mud here!" Meloni did not attend a special meeting of her cabinet in Rome, which took place almost simultaneously with the publication of the selfie.
The Fratelli leader has been leading a coalition of three right-wing parties for almost two years. She is very active on Instagram and other internet platforms.
Mel Gibson looking for location for Jesus film
The 68-year-old director is currently looking for suitable locations for the sequel to "The Passion of the Christ", which is about the suffering of Jesus Christ. As in part 1, which sparked loud protests from the Jewish community due to its drastic scenes of violence, Jim Caviezel will take on the role of Jesus.
