Gibson is my hero

New York: Courtney Love told friends that actor-director Mel Gibson was a “saviour” to her. Love had been struggling with her addiction and she remained clean for a while but relapsed. Gibson tried to enter her hotel room to help her, but she would not let him in.

An insider said: “He was pounding on her door and hollering for her to open up, and she was cussing him out and telling him to go away. He hung out until a delivery came to her room, and then he sneaked in the door behind the delivery guy.”

Gibson coaxed her to get back to rehab. The insider added:

“Courtney says the incident occurred about a year ago.”
