Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: The Shaw Report.
- 0:06Speaker 2: No stranger to apology tours, Mel Gibson's dropped himself in
- 0:09Speaker 2: it again and today he's apologising for making hand gestures
- 0:13Speaker 2: behind a sign language interpreter at a Canadian fan expo.
- 0:18Speaker 3: Mel, Mel, Mel. He says it was a dumb.
- 0:20Speaker 1: Mel, the camera's always on.
- 0:21Speaker 2: It was a dumb spur-of-the-moment move with no ill intent.
- 0:24Speaker 2: Mel said, sometimes when you get pushed out on a
- 0:26Speaker 2: stage in a spotlight, your mind is all over the
- 0:28Speaker 2: place and sometimes spontaneous, thoughtless.
- 0:31Speaker 3: Idiocy is displayed.
- 0:32Speaker 2: Some people thought he was mocking the sign language girl.
- 0:37Speaker 2: Others say those people are overreacting.
- 0:39Speaker 3: Mel says, bottom line, it was not malicious. It was stupid.
- 0:44Speaker 2: Lionel Richie is in hospital again after struggling during a
- 0:47Speaker 2: concert in St.
- 0:48Speaker 3: Louis in the US.
- 0:49Speaker 2: Apparently Lionel checked himself into hospital after his show on
- 0:52Speaker 2: the weekend to have some tests run. After the same
- 0:54Speaker 2: thing happened a couple of months ago, 77-year-old Lionel's being
- 0:59Speaker 2: especially cautious. Doctors think it's most likely dehydration and he'll
- 1:02Speaker 2: likely be discharged from hospital.
- 1:04Speaker 1: He's finding it.
- 1:05Speaker 3: Tonight.
- 1:06Speaker 1: Oh, tonight from ICU.
- 1:08Speaker 3: There's some online, you know, sites, TMZ, for example, TMZ.
- 1:14Speaker 2: Saying he's in intensive care and he'll be discharged today.
- 1:17Speaker 3: I don't think it quite works like that. Does it
- 1:19Speaker 3: work like that? No, it does not.
- 1:20Speaker 2: If he's going to be discharged today, he's probably not
- 1:23Speaker 2: in intensive care and probably not with dehydration.
- 1:25Speaker 1: Either way, Lionel finds it a little hard to go
- 1:28Speaker 1: all night long these days.
- 1:29Speaker 2: These older guys need to just slow down a bit,
- 1:32Speaker 2: don't you think?
- 1:32Speaker 3: Lionel, Rod Stewart, you can't all be Mick Jagger. He's
- 1:36Speaker 3: clearly just a freak.
- 1:37Speaker 2: And you may have seen yesterday that Rose Tattoo frontman
- 1:40Speaker 2: Angry Anderson is also in hospital after suffering a heart
- 1:43Speaker 2: attack while on tour in Europe. They actually cancelled the
- 1:46Speaker 2: remainder of the tour a couple of weeks ago, citing
- 1:49Speaker 2: a medical issue. And now they have confirmed that Anderson
- 1:52Speaker 2: had a cardiac arrest. Now, with Angry still receiving treatment,
- 1:56Speaker 2: it's unlikely, well, it's very unlikely, the Rose Tattoo farewell
- 1:59Speaker 2: show is scheduled for Perth this month.
- 2:01Speaker 3: I think they're at the end of next week. We'll
- 2:03Speaker 3: go ahead. They will at best be postponed.
- 2:06Speaker 2: Dolly Parton's estate has announced a two-day festival to celebrate
- 2:10Speaker 2: her life with events planned in Nashville and London. Dolly
- 2:13Speaker 2: Fest will be a joyful celebration of Parton's music life
- 2:17Speaker 2: and legacy. Details regarding all the specific dates will be
- 2:20Speaker 2: released in coming weeks. And here's a story, further proof
- 2:22Speaker 2: this morning that people will do anything to get into
- 2:25Speaker 2: the Guinness Book of Records. Serial Guinness World Record breaker
- 2:28Speaker 2: David Rush bested his own title for balancing toilet paper
- 2:32Speaker 2: on his head. Rush initially set the record for the
- 2:36Speaker 2: most toilet paper rolls balanced on one's head in 2021
- 2:40Speaker 2: when he did 101 rolls.
- 2:42Speaker 3: He lost the title, then regained it in.
- 2:44Speaker 2: May last year by balancing 195 rolls on his head.
- 2:47Speaker 2: And now he's gone really big, balancing 254 toilet rolls
- 2:52Speaker 2: on his head.
- 2:53Speaker 3: It's actually brutal, not because of the weight, though it
- 2:56Speaker 3: is heavy, because of the nerves.
- 2:58Speaker 1: The second you tense up, the stack starts moving.
- 3:01Speaker 2: And once 200 rolls start moving, you're done.
- 3:03Speaker 3: Thinks he's quite the performer, does David. This guy is
- 3:06Speaker 3: no stranger to Guinness.
- 3:07Speaker 2: He's a serial record breaker who holds more than 200
- 3:10Speaker 2: Guinness World Record titles.
- 3:12Speaker 3: Most of them involve balancing things.
- 3:14Speaker 1: You know what would have impressed me even more?
- 3:16Speaker 3: What?
- 3:16Speaker 1: If he had been able to balance 254 toilet rolls
- 3:20Speaker 1: on his head during COVID. Just getting 254 toilet rolls.
- 3:29Speaker 1: That would have been impressive.
