*In the pages of her new autobiography “Grace Will Lead Me Home,” Robin Givens details how she was raped by her then-husband, boxer Mike Tyson, during a 1988 trip to Russia.
In an excerpt provided by the New York Daily News, the actress writes, she was awoken by a drunken Tyson who “climbed on top of me . . . and grabbed me by my throat.”
Givens said she attempted to reach for a phone and yelled for him to stop, but he “pinned my hands above my head . . . He pulled my pajama pants down . . . I begged him to stop as he undid his pants and began to shove himself in me.”
According to Givens, who was married to the former heavyweight champion from 1988 to 1989, Tyson then began tearing up the hotel and ended up hanging by one arm from a railing 18 stories above the lobby.
All of this, Givens writes, took place 48 hours before the couple’s infamous interview with Barbara Walters, when the “Head of the Class” star revealed that Tyson was physically abusive and bi-polar.
In other Mike Tyson news, the former boxer was apparently bitten by the Bollywood bug after filming a music video in Las Vegas for the new Indian comedy "Fool n Final," about a diamond heist.
The Times of India reported Monday that Iron Mike now wants to star in an actual Bollywood film. He said in an interview that Firoz Nadiadwala, producer of "Fool n Final," had approached him with a script.
"Firoz has discussed a movie with me," the newspaper quoted Tyson as saying. "We seriously intend to work toward it," he said, without disclosing any details.
