People Magazine

Few of us will ever know how it feels to be as wealthy or perhaps as drop-dead gorgeous as Elin Nodergren, but plenty of people following the Tiger Woods saga will understand how it feels to be betrayed by someone you love. 

Better off alone. Picture: AP.

In her first and only interview with US People magazine this week, Nordergen admitted to have been completely “blindsided” by Tiger’s actions, that their marriage for her was a “real one” and that she had never doubted Woods for a second.

“For the last three-and-a-half years, when all this was going on, I was home a lot more with pregnancies, then the children and my school. 

“I was blindsided…I felt stupid and embarrassed,” she said of her reactions to the seemingly unending revelations of Tiger’s infidelities.

    I always thought that injury or old age would prevent him from getting to the 19 majors (the record) he craves. I never thought it would be his d**k that would ruin his career—not that it has, yet, but many other golfers are feeling that they have his measure now,… Read more »

 

Bristol Palin and Levi Johnson have hit the rocks (again) after announcing their second engagement in July this year. Bristol claims she dumped the “fame obsessed” Levi after he “played her” and admitted to fathering another baby with ex-girlfriend, Lanesia Garcia.

And while Sarah Palin didn’t condone the engagement between the pair back in July, a recent statement given to People magazine shows she’s in full support of her daughter’s decicion to call it quits: “I wish for Bristol to be able to move forward in life with her same forgiving, gracious, optimistic spirit, but from henceforth she’ll know to trust but verify. Bristol is strong, she is independent, and she knows what is right for her son,” she said.

    Palin is significant because she is one of the leading intellectual lights of the Tea Party sect.  Tea Party ideas are leaking into the ranting lexicon of the Australian rabid right. Read more »

    @Peter,  Clarkson wrote about it in one of his books. He was speeding down a highway with nothing for hundreds of kilometres and he got pulled over for exceeding the speed limit. He asked the Cop to show some sympathy and a bit of common sense. The Cop responded “Sir,… Read more »
