In what other sport or branch of entertainment is a star required to be a posterboy for middleclass morality? If Tiger were a movie actor or a rock star or a footballer we'd shrug at these revelations.
Yep, that was another one, although by then Liz was famous for being much-married. The one that got people's hackles up was when Liz acted the homewrecker with Debbie Reynolds and Eddie Fisher. When she dumped Eddie for Burton lots of people cheered saying it served Fisher right. Egad! I just read this over, and realized that I'm kind of an "old biddy" myself, who enjoys these bits of hollywood gossip. No, I used to enjoy them a lot more than I do now. You get tired of the same old, same old...
Most of the time all we know is what the PR people want us to know. That's part of our fascination with the Tiger story. It's a rare example of a celebrity scandal that isn't being micro-managed every step of the way.
