Elin Woods Whisks Tiger’s Kids Off to Sweden

April 20th, 2010 TheG No comments



Tiger Woods’ estranged wife, Elin Nordegren Woods, flew home to Sweden with the couple’s two children on Monday, and the golfer nowhere in sight.

Yeah, she’s so over him. It becomes clearer by the day.

Elin flew to Sweden with a single stop after leaving Orlando, Fla., yesterday, arriving in her native country around 4:30 a.m. local time via private jet.

While European airports had been closed due to the ash cloud from a recent Icelandic volcano, flights recently had been allowed back into Sweden.

Elin Woods and the cubs were on one of the first.

The trip to Sweden is being characterized as a vacation, not a life-changing event, by a source familiar with the situation, but just the same makes one wonder.

The couple’s continued separation – vacationing separately, spending virtually no time together since relations cooled last month – makes their struggle clear.

Her vacation also follows separate reports last week that Elin will be moving back to Sweden full time once the renovations on her home there are complete.

Elin Woods has taken four trips without Tiger in the past several weeks, including four nights in Arizona overlapping with Tiger’s comeback at the Masters.

Tiger’s relationship with her has been icy, with tension over Tiger’s return to golf, and rumors swirling that Elin will divorce Tiger – it’s just a matter of when.

Kelly LeBrock on Steven Seagal Sexual Harassment Accusations: D’uh!

April 20th, 2010 TheG No comments



In one of the strangest celebrity gossip stories of the season, Kayden Nguyen has sued Steven Seagal for treating her like a “sex toy.”

The model claims she was duped by the actor into thinking she’d be serving as his personal assistant, only for the action star to grope her and request sexual favors from Nguyen.

While this may come as a shock to those of us that memorized every line of Under Siege, Kelly LeBrock, tells TMZ she’s “not surprised” by the allegations.

The former model/actress was married to Seagal from 1987 to 1994 and has three kids with him. She says: “I will refrain from saying anything specific now because of our 3 children.”

Actually, that’s a lie. This is why she’ll actually refrain from saying anything specific at the moment:

“I have many shocking things to say about Mr. Seagal which will be known soon when my book comes out.”

Good. That should set a solid example of your children.

We didn’t think it was possible to get more ridiculous than the Kardashians’ relationship book, but LeBrock just proved us wrong.
