Christina Aguilera is “living out of a suitcase” in a hotel after her split

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 08:50 AM PDT

These are new photos of Christina Aguilera entering a Beverly Hills hotel yesterday. She looks pretty good, right? This is maybe the best she's looked in months. She's not wearing five pounds of makeup (but still, she's wearing a lot), and her hair looks almost normal. Anyway, the rumor going around is that Christina is staying at a hotel because Jordan Bratman, her estranged and soon to be ex-husband, is flat-out refusing to move out of the mansion they shared. Apparently, things "have gotten tense" and Christina is "living out of a suitcase." Living out of a suitcase agrees with her, that's all I say.

Meanwhile, one of the main reasons for the split keeps rearing up in report after report - that Christina loves the ladies in general, and that she's having a sexual relationship with Samantha Ronson specifically. Last week, a paparazzo got a photo of Sam leaving Christina's house late one night (photo here), and Christina seems to be trying to tamp down the gossip about her lesbianism (or bisexuality):

Christina Aguilera has been leaning on gal pal Samantha Ronson for support in the wake of her crumbling marriage and RadarOnline.com has the photo of Ronson's late-night visit to the singer's home.

"They've known each other forever and they're good friends," a source close to Aguilera told RadarOnline.com of her relationship with the famous Hollywood deejay who has been the on-again, off-again girlfriend of Lindsay Lohan. According to several sources, Aguilera grew closer to Ronson as her marriage fell apart, eventually leading her soon-to-be-ex-husband Jordan Bratman feeling unwanted.

Ronson was photographed leaving the pop superstar's Beverly Hills home late on the night of October 12, after spending seven hours comforting Aguilera.

"Samantha was also in Mexico with Christina for Nicole's [Richie] bachelorette party," the source told RadarOnline.com.

A close friend of Christina's downplayed the relationship, "Christina and Sam are good friends and Christina has a ton of gay friends, there's nothing more to it than that."

As RadarOnline.com was first to report, this isn’t the first time Christina has turned to a woman. According to a source Christina has approached women while at gay bars in Los Angeles. One woman who was approached told RadarOnline.com that Christina sent over her bodyguard to see if she was interested. When the woman, who didn’t want her name used, looked over, Christina waved and smiled.

“The bodyguard told me it was an understanding within their marriage and that she brings girls home and Jordan’s okay with it,” said the woman who was approached by the Dirrty singer while at The Abbey. “I met Christina in the bathroom and she told me she liked to play with girls… I ended up not pursuing anything with it because the situation just seemed so weird to me, but Christina was definitely looking to hook up.”

Aguilera has been open about her affection for the ladies telling Out magazine in May, “My husband knows that I get into girls. I think it’s fun to be open and play.”

After nearly five years of marriage Aguilera, 29, filed for divorce on October 14 from her husband Bratman, 33, citing “irreconcilable differences.” Aguilera asked for joint legal and physical custody of their two-year-old son Max and for any spousal support to be terminated.

“My understanding was that Jordan wasn’t involved when she brought girls home,” a source said.

[From Radar]

Are you feeling any sympathy for Christina? Eh. I feel it a little bit, even though I think she was the one to instigate the divorce. Who knows, though. Maybe Jordan is a piece of work too. I feel a begrudging respect for him for not moving out of their house. My guess is that there's more sh-t that will come out in the coming months, and most of it is going to be bad for Christina.

Us Weekly: Justin Timberlake cheated on Jessica Biel with Olivia Munn (update)

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 08:20 AM PDT

usweekly1

I just can't wait for Us Weekly to release any online excerpts of their cover story. This is too juicy, too interesting. Okay, Us Weekly's cover story this week is all about Justin Timberlake cheating on Jessica Biel… with Olivia Munn. The Olivia Munn who is dumb and unfunny and some kind of female affirmative action hire on The Daily Show. The one who thinks she's clever because she takes off her clothes and makes fart jokes. ZOMG Jenny McCarthy!

The cover line says "Timberlake has a steamy 3 day affair with Olivia Munn while Jessica's 3,000 miles away". I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Us Weekly might have this story nailed down if they're calling JT out so hard on their cover. They must have more than just some eyewitness testimony - they might have receipts or something. Plus, I think Us Weekly has some sources deep within the Timberlake camp - it was Us Weekly who went after JT and Jessica Biel's relationship last year, and basically said that JT was trying to dump Biel, but that she was clinging to him. Hard. We'll see. I'll update or add a new story when it comes online. Oh, there is this, from Hollywood Life:

Is their trouble in paradise? Things may looks good between JT and live-in-love Jessica, but the singer spent one weekend last month hot and heavy with Olivia!

Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel may have looked so in love Oct. 25 at the Glamour Reel Moments event in LA, but the singer was definitely not thinking about Jess last month while hanging with actress Olivia Munn in NYC! US Weekly reports, "Munn, 30, and Timberlake, 29, [had] a passionate sexual liason … and worse, she believed it was more than physical!" Uh-oh!

The sparks between Olivia and Justin began to fly on Sep. 26, when Olivia interviewed Justin for his new film, The Social Network. Then, on Sep. 27 and 28, "his driver dropped the new pair off at her hotel, the Gansevoort Park Avenue NYC."

Sources say the pair were openly affectionate on Sep. 27 while sitting at a back table at Avenue nightclub. "At one point, Olivia did a seductive little dance with Justin," one said. "Then, while he was dancing, she came up behind him and he held her hand behind his back."

Olivia has been linked to actors including Chris Pine and Bryan Greenberg while Justin famously dated Cameron Diaz and Britney Spears. Justin and Olivia have not been spotted together since their steamy weekend rendezvous, but this is certain to not sit well with Jessica!

[From Hollywood Life]

Okay, it sounds like eyewitness testimony plus a source in Team Munn. This should show you how dumb Munn is - she has a fling with JT?!? What is she, a backup dancer?

UPDATE: Okay, Us Weekly just released an excerpt online. Basically, they say that JT “chased” Olivia after meeting her in late September, and that Olivia initally resisted because she didn’t want to fool around with a dude with a girlfriend. But, she relented because JT has been telling her (and other people) that “it's over with Jessica, even though ‘the reality is he’s just doing it behind her back.’” Olivia thought that JT might get serious about her, then, so she brought him back to her hotel where sources say “they were openly affectionate.” Then an insider tells the mag that JT and Olivia had “amazing sex that night.” Us Weekly also notes that “Timberlake’s rep strongly denies the allegations; Munn's rep does not comment on her personal life.”

Charlie Sheen: “The story is totally overblown and overplayed”

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 08:16 AM PDT

To find out what we've got on Charlie Sheen so far, go HERE and HERE and HERE. But all accounts, Charlie spent Monday night in a haze of booze, cocaine and hooker sex until he began freaking out over a missing wallet. Then Charlie did what any normal man would do - he began trashing his hotel room, locked the naked, screaming hooker in the closet, and then passed out on the bed. When the cops found him, he started yelling slurs at them, and they threatened to take him jail. He ended up going to the hospital instead, although he was released hours later. So what does Charlie have to say for himself? Something along the lines of "It was just a normal day for me."

Charlie Sheen has broken his silence about his crazed coke and booze binge with a prostitute that left him in a New York hospital early Tuesday morning. Speaking exclusively to RadarOnline.com, the Two and a Half Men star downplayed claims he trashed his posh room at The Plaza Hotel, in a frantic bid to find his wallet and cell phone after partying with a hooker.

"Oh my man, I'm fine," he told RadarOnline.com's Senior Executive Editor Dylan Howard, when asked about his condition after being carted off to the hospital for a mental health evaluation. "The story is totally overblown and overplayed as far as the reality of the scenario."

Sheen spoke to RadarOnline.com via text message shortly after he arrived home in Los Angeles on a private jet Tuesday night. Earlier Tuesday, he had checked out of New York Presbyterian Hospital, where he underwent a psychiatric evaluation.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the Emmy nominated and Golden Globe winning actor was naked and out of control when cops burst into his trashed suite, next to the room where his ex-wife Denise Richards and their two young daughters - Sam, six, and Lola, five - were staying. He was found naked and in an altered state, according to cops.

Sheen told RadarOnline.com he had no plans to reveal exactly what happened in Room 1832: "I know what went down and that's where it will stay… under wraps."

The New York Police Department said Sheen, 45, appeared “intoxicated” and was reportedly offered a choice of hospitalization - or arrest. He chose the hospital. The woman, who was also naked, claimed she feared being attacked after the star went berserk following an argument and began screaming at her and throwing furniture.

Sheen's 'I'm fine' declaration to RadarOnline.com followed claims from his own rep that the hell raising actor had an “adverse allergic reaction” to pills he’d been taking.

“Charlie had an adverse allergic reaction to some medication and was taken to the hospital,” his publicist said in a statement.

NYPD spokesman Paul Browne said no complaints were made and there was no arrest. Sheen was not expected to face any criminal charges.

Sheen, who has admitted to using cocaine in the past and paying for hookers, had his meltdown just weeks after he spent 30 days in rehab following domestic abuse charges filed by his other ex-wife, Brooke Mueller.

He agreed to treatment as part of a plea deal to avoid jail after threatening to kill Mueller during a domestic violence incident last Christmas in Apsen, Colorado. Sheen, the highest-paid actor on US TV, is expected to return to work as soon as Friday.

[From Radar]

Yes, WE are the ones who overreacted. Of course. All of us fuddy-duddies who clutch our pearls whenever we hear about a cocaine-and-tequila binge that leaves a naked hooker howling in a barricaded closet. WE have the problem. Not Charlie.

By the ways, police sources say that Charlie admitted to cops that he had snorted a lot of cocaine before his freakout, and that he tested positive for coke while in the hospital. Charlie only had eight days left on his probation (the probation he got for choking his wife on Christmas!), so… yeah. He could conceivably go to jail for violating the terms of his probation. I doubt that will happen, but there's still some legal and PR maneauvering to be done. And Charlie coming out and saying that the whole incident is overblown is the first step.

Penelope Cruz makes a glowing, pregnant outing in London

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 07:50 AM PDT

penelope-cruz_2_wenn3067232

Sure, it's a non-story. But I was just enjoying these photos of a pregnant Penelope Cruz leaving a London restaurant with her hot husband/baby-daddy Javier Bardem, and I thought I would pass them along. Unfortunately, for some reason, Javier was cut out of the photos we have access to (you can see some here, at The Daily Mail), but fortunately we have some other photos of Javi looking hot (below). Penelope is carrying very well, isn't she? By my calculations, she's late second trimester, maybe heading into her third trimester - People Magazine says she's due "in the winter." She's glowing!

It’s a dinner date! Penélope Cruz, husband Javier Bardem and sister Mónica Cruz proved there’s no such thing as a third-wheel when the trio stepped out at a London restaurant.

Cruz and company, decked out in coordinated black outfits, were spotted at the members-only Groucho Club Tuesday night.

The Pirates of the Caribbean actress, 36, who is expecting her first child in the winter, bared her baby bump during the meal, and is currently in the U.K. to film the adventure movie.

[From People]

When Javi did an interview last month, he confirmed Penelope's pregnancy and said "It is true. I am very happy." He also said they hadn't decided on a name for the hot Spanish baby yet. Ah… God, Penelope has the life, doesn't she? To be knocked up by Javier and to have him all happy and content and to look so glowing while pregnant? Lucky bitch.

Here are those Hot Javi photos:

Teresa Giudice’s gross husband Joe has a “secret double life”

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 07:23 AM PDT

lifestyle

This Life & Style cover story about Teresa Giudice's jacked, womanizing husband is the opposite of shocking. According to the report, Joe Giudice has a "secret double life" that involves strippers, waitresses and hiring very unqualified, pretty young women to be on his "staff". Wow, who could have predicted? Oh, right. Everyone. Joe Giudice is like the budget, mobbed-up version of Tiger Woods. I expect a press conference from a HoJo's waitress at any moment.

Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice has stood by her husband, Joe, through a DUI arrest, eight-day jail sentence and filing for bankruptcy all while she tries to dig her family out of financial ruin. Now, Life & Style has learned that Joe has been leading a secret, double life – filled with regular visits to strip clubs.

According to a former dancer at Showoffs strip club in West Orange, N.J., Joe was a regular at the strip club before it was closed in 2006 amid accusations of prostitution.

"He was always up for a lap dance," reveals the insider. "There was a lot of hanky-panky that went down in the club's basement," the insider tells Life & Style. "If you had money, you could get pretty up close and personal with the strippers."

Joe was also allegedly a loyal patron of Latin Bar in Paterson, N.J.

"There was one particular waitress Joe really liked there," recalls the insider. "She was from the Dominican Republic, about 5 feet tall with big breasts and long, dark hair. Joe would always make sure that wherever he was, he could be back in Paterson on a Friday night so he could see her."

Back at his former real estate development office, Joe's attention to the ladies also raised eyebrows. With Teresa nowhere in sight, he developed a very close relationship with a young female staffer who, says a onetime assistant, Joe suddenly hired despite the fact that she "didn't seem qualified."

Teresa, however, maintains that her marriage is strong. "I have a great husband," she tells Life & Style. "I wake up every morning and I'm like, 'Thank you, God.'"

[From Life & Style]

Do you feel bad for Teresa? I do, a little. But the woman is in denial, either that or she knows all about Joe's extracurricular hobbies and she turns a blind eye. In either case, I don't expect anything from her other than a public show of support for Joe. I do feel for their kids though. Ugh.

Blake Lively & Penn Badgley split back in September, shock

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 07:02 AM PDT

wenn2518517

Thank you to the people who have already sent in props to me for calling this one - sources are now confirming to Us Weekly that Blake Lively and Penn Badgley are over, and have been over since mid-September. I thought this was the case back when it seemed like Blake had gone out on a date with Ryan Gosling, and I thought it again when I saw the weird, chaste kiss Penn and Blake gave each other last week. Of course, this means that Blake's rep lied to Gossip Cop, amongst other media outlets. Oh, well.

Penn Badgley, 24, and Blake Lively, 23, have ended their three-year romance, a rep for the Gossip Girl costars exclusively tells the new Us Weekly (on newsstands now). They called it quits in mid-September.

“They're professionals,” an insider tells Us Weekly. “They’re still good friends and hang out on the set.”

The source says that the duo — who met as preteen actors in L.A. — “kept this news to themselves for a while.”

Indeed, they have always taken a drama-free approach to their relationship.

Badgley told Us last fall that working together while dating didn’t present any problems: “Some would say it's a double-edged sword, but in our case, we manage to balance it well.”

Even those closest to the twosome may be shocked to hear the news.

“Nobody on set had any idea,” says the insider. “They’re really just private.”

[From Us Weekly]

So Blake Lively is officially on the market. And we have no idea if she jumped without a jumpoff or if she's going to do a few months of the "single girl" thing before trading up to a film actor. Would you be worried if you were Jennifer Garner? Even though I think Ben Affleck might have been hung up on Blake, I tend to think Blake would prefer her trading-up boyfriend to be someone like Gosling… maybe Jake Gyllenhaal? JG and Blake would make a lot of sense together, actually. We just have to get him away from Swifty.

JetBlue meltdown guy Steven Slater on Larry King and The Today Show

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 06:40 AM PDT


Steven Slater, the Jet Blue steward who brought so many disgruntled employees’ fantasies to life, is granting interviews now. It’s been about two and a half months since Slater cursed out a passenger on a grounded airplane and then proceeded to quit his job by grabbing two beers, activating the plane’s emergency slide and heading off to his waiting car. Slater was on Larry King yesterday and The Today Show this morning to explain what he was thinking that fateful day. He said that he wouldn’t do it over again, but that he probably would have quit his job as he was just fed up with it. Slater is undergoing counseling and treatment for substance abuse as a result of his sentencing for that incident.

When Matt Lauer questioned Slater about the incident which he claims a passenger either hit him in the head with a suitcase or with the door to an overhead compartment, he was vague but said it happened on the ground in Philadelphia before takeoff. Slater denied that his actions were premeditated and said that he didn’t plan it out ahead of time. He claimed that he wasn’t drunk before his left the plane, but admitted that he was hungover.

In one fell swoop, he became a hero, a villain, an Internet meme and even a Halloween costume. But Steven Slater, the JetBlue flight attendant who dramatically quit his job last August by sliding down his plane's emergency chute after a run-in with a passenger, says that looking back, he regrets his actions.

"At the end of the day, would I have chosen to make the same decisions again? Probably not," he told Matt Lauer in an exclusive interview that aired on TODAY Wednesday.

"It was time to go — it was definitely time to go," he said about his job. "I probably shouldn't have allowed myself to get to a point where I had become so frustrated."
Slater, who pled guilty last week to two counts of criminal mischief, spoke out in detail for the first time, sharing his take on what happened.

"There are a number of different versions of the story that I myself have read," he told Lauer.

Indeed, the events of that day have been hotly contested. According to reports, Slater was working on a plane flying out of Pittsburgh on Aug. 9, and says that a rude passenger set him off. When the plane landed in New York City's JFK airport, Slater got on the loudspeaker, cursed out the passenger, took a beer, deployed the emergency chute, jumped off of the plane and went home to his boyfriend in Queens, N.Y.

The infamous gash
Some passengers claim that Slater, 39, had been exhibiting bad behavior before the aircraft ever took off, and say that a mysterious bloody gash on his forehead — which he attributes to a knock on the head from a passenger grabbing her luggage from the overhead bin — was seen before he boarded the plane.

"The injury happened on the ground in Pittsburgh during the boarding process," Slater told Lauer, reiterating that the gash, along with the passenger's attitude, incited him. “It was one of those perfect storms of bad manners and incivility that we're all accountable for — myself, the fellow passengers, the airline industry that has created this monster where, you know, we're charging you to check your bags and now all of a sudden we're not going to bother policing what's coming on board the airplane.

"The decision that I made, which was probably not the best one at the time, was to continue with the flight," Slater continued. "I should have said, 'Time out; I'm going to have somebody take a look at this and I'll be back.' "

But federal investigators who spoke with passengers aboard the flight were unable to find witnesses to corroborate Slater's account.

Slater claims that the scuffle itself wasn't actually a big deal and could have gone unnoticed. "I can tell you for one thing, it was not nearly as spectacular as it's been made out to be," he said. "It was not a huge event, or I would have left right then and there."

Slater also says that reports alleging that he was drunk when he boarded the plane are untrue — but he concedes that he was a little the worse for wear.

"I had been out the night before. I will admit, I was not in the best of shape," he said. "I was sleep-deprived, it was a rough night, and it was probably not the best professional appearance."

Slater did have a lot on his mind going into the flight. A recovering alcoholic who is HIV-positive, Slater lost his father to Lou Gehrig's disease and has been helping care for his sick mother.

"I was stressed out, I was burned out, and something had to give," he said of his emotional state back in August. "It didn't necessarily need to give the way that it did, but it certainly needed to give."

Not looking to make a statement
A flight attendant for nearly 20 years, Slater denies media reports that he had been looking for an opportunity to leave his job with such fanfare, saying that his words were misinterpreted.

"That was something that was taken grossly out of context," he said. "The conversation was, 'Had you ever thought about what it entails to go down a slide?' And I said, 'Yes, for 20 years of recurrent training, we practice these moves … for 20 years, I've thought about what it would be like if we ever had to do so.' It turned into, 'Steven Slater premeditated this whole thing for 20 years.' "

Making fun of such allegations, Slater joked to Lauer: "If I were looking to get my name known, I would have called you up first and said, 'There's going to be something going down at JFK, get yourselves out here.' "

[From MSNBC]

I have to say I loved the way this guy ranted about how the airline industry has gone downhill. He really summed up a lot of people’s feelings about how inconvenient and difficult it is to fly. He’s got a lot of personality and I was impressed by how he handled Matt’s questions. I would like to see more of him. We heard in August that he was fielding multiple offers, including hosting a reality show and writing a book. I’m surprised he waited so long to go public, but maybe he wanted to make sure his legal issues were squared first.

Here’s a segment from Slater’s Larry King interview.

People: Kate Middleton is smug because of the engagement rumors

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 06:26 AM PDT

peoplemag1

Over the weekend, I did a post about these new photos we had of Prince William and Kate Middleton, who attended a wedding and even posed for some lovely photos as they were walking into church. Those photos - and the message they sent - made worldwide news, and a new and more hyperactive round of engagement rumors started up, not the first round that Will and Kate have experienced after eight years together. My take on the situation was that Waity Katy was smug because she knew the photos would buy her lots of positive press about how she could be the next Princess of Wales. I also thought that Will was probably placating her, doing the bare minimum to shut her up, because a photo op is easier than a proposal. Anyway, People Magazine got their cue and they're running a cover story about Will and Kate and how they'll be married forever and ever!

After years of anticipation, royal watchers say Kate Middleton may soon be walking down the aisle to wed the world’s most eligible bachelor.

One royal expert interviewed in this week’s PEOPLE cover story says Prince William will likely propose to his girlfriend of eight years in February 2011. “There won’t be an announcement before Christmas because William has got to ask the Queen first,” says longtime royal watcher Ingrid Seward. “And they will get married soon after.”

The fiercely private couple, both 28 – who almost always show up and leave events separately – sparked a new round of engagement rumors after appearing together at a friend’s Oct. 23 nuptials in Northleach, Gloucestershire. Shocking everyone, they strolled out of the stone church in full view of waiting photographers.

Might that have been a hint that their own wedding is next?

“There’s a sense this is the beginning, we may as well get used to seeing Kate in the royal arena,” says Ken Wharfe, the former bodyguard for William’s mother, the late Princess Diana. “As if this were a rehearsal.”

[From People]

Oh for goodness sake. It's not a rehearsal! She's just a girl who has put all of her eggs into one basket, and who has no other option other than to cling to William. She doesn't have a career. She doesn't have any other prospects. She's just there, for better or for worse. And I know there will be Middleton defenders who say "oh, maybe they're in love and don't feel the need to make it legit, I'm the same way!" You know what? You're boyfriend isn't the future Prince of Wales and the future King. Will's ONLY real job in the world is to get married in the Church of England and continue the line. That's it. Yes, he has "royal duties" but first and foremost the only thing he really has to do is just get married and have babies, and for God's sake, if he really thought Kate was wife and mother material, he's had ample opportunity and he hasn't done it.

Maybe I'm wrong. Everyone really seems to think this is happening. But I think Will is trying to figure out a way to dump her and not look like an a–hole for stringing her along for eight years.

David Arquette is not going to go after Courteney Cox’s $100 million fortune

Posted: 27 Oct 2010 06:15 AM PDT

LOS ANGELES, CA - OCTOBER 16: Actor David Arquette arrives at Spike TV's 'Scream 2010' at The Greek Theatre on October 16, 2010 in Los Angeles, California. (Photo by Christopher Polk/Getty Images)
David Arquette may be behaving like a 20-something by partying and granting tell-alls in the wake of his divorce, but he’s allegedly not going to be at all petty when it comes to dividing the couple’s assets. Bill Zwecker at the Chicago Sun Times has some insider information that suggest that Arquette is not going to try and get his hands on any of Cox’s Friends’ money and will be content with his own millions, thank you very much. When you’re dealing with that much money maybe you can afford to be generous, but it’s still nice and speaks to his character - especially since Courteney is the one who did the dumping. Here’s the report, which includes the detail that Courteney is worth something like $100 million.

Cyberspace is all abuzz with wild estimates — as much as $50 million — of what David Arquette will collect if he and Courteney Cox go ahead, as expected, and finalize a divorce.

But that’s not what I’m hearing!

Yes, Cox’s net worth supposedly is in the $100 million neighborhood (due to all that “Friends” moolah). And yes, California is a community property state.

Yet, while in L.A. over the weekend, I spoke with sources close to the couple — who are trashing those tales.

Seems Arquette has told pals he and Cox have no quarrels over splitting the $$$ — if they divorce — and long have had carefully detailed financial agreements in place in the event of a marital bust-up.

The actor also told a longtime pal the other day, “I have no interest in Courteney’s money. I have my own money. I don’t care about that. We’re cool on the financial stuff and are totally focused on [their daughter] Coco.”

That’s really big of David to keep it civil and try and divide things according to what they separately earned. It wouldn’t hurt him to be a little more ambitious when it comes to what he’s asking for though. He contributed to the marriage and helped raise their daughter. These two even went into business together with their own production company, which is currently responsible for Cougar Town. I wonder how they’re going to divide that company and their responsibilities now that they’re splitting up. Maybe they’ll still work together. They certainly seem to be keeping things friendly.

Maybe David thinks that by keeping the divorce on good terms he’ll still have a chance to win back Courteney.

Rachel Uchitel keeps talking about her affair with married David Boreanaz

Rachel Uchitel was the hooker/party girl/"events planner" that Tiger Woods was having an affair with when The National Enquirer called him out 11 months ago. Many tend to forget that Uchitel had a married lover before Tiger - Bones actor David Boreanaz. Star Magazine had that scoop a few months before the Tiger story broke, but it took months and months of Tiger's revelations for the Boreanaz story to come out. Basically, David and Rachel had a months-long affair in the spring and summer of 2009, when his wife was pregnant with their daughter. When David got caught up in the whirlwind of the Tiger scandal, he gave a vague non-admission of guilt in which he cried about how much pain he was in because he got caught. That didn't stop Rachel for basically trying to destroy him, giving multiple interviews about their affair and how she was the one to dump him (for Tiger), plus releasing texts from their relationship. The whole sordid story became easier to believe once we found out that David was/is probably a dirt bag who cheats on his wife with porn stars and sexually harasses women casually. Anyway, Rachel Uchitel has given yet another interview about her affair with David, and she still sounds like a f-cking piece of work:

Rachel Uchitel had affairs with David Boreanaz and Tiger Woods, but she wants people to know she’s “just a normal girl” and “absolutely not the wicked witch that people have made me out to be.”

In a new interview to promote her upcoming appearance on Celebrity Rehab, the former NYC events planner, who was reportedly treated for “love addiction” on the reality show, opens up about her affair with the Bones star — a story Star broke one year ago.

“It was a situation where I was deeply in love with somebody and he was deeply in love with me,” Rachel told E! News about her relationship with David. “You never know what you’re being told — no matter who you are, no matter what relationship you’re in — you never really know if the person is really being honest with you. I took a chance and I bet on the wrong horse.”

When asked if she was aware of David’s marital status — he’s been married to wife Jaime Bergman since 2001 and, at the time of the affair, she was pregnant with their second child — Rachel said, “I did know David was married. But I also knew the kind of relationship that David was in.”

Rachel was less forthcoming about her relationship with the pro golfer — another Star exclusive, which we broke over Thanksgiving of last year. However, despite numerous reports that Tiger paid her a large settlement in return for her silence, the bombshell claims that not speaking about him publicly is her own decision as part of moving forward from the drama.

“I really changed my life in the last year,” said Rachel, who is studying to be a detective and dating on Match.com. “I’ve changed all the people that I speak to. I’ve changed what I do for a living. My entire way that I live is completely different.”

Yeah, Rachel is so "changed". That's why she comes out with such gems as "you never really know if the person is really being honest with you. I took a chance and I bet on the wrong horse.” ABOUT A MARRIED MAN. Gee, can I trust a married guy who is trying to get in my pants? Or is he just feeding me one of the oldest lines in book?!? Ugh, this bitch.

These are photos from Rachel's appearance at The Carousel of Hope event this past weekend… Rachel crashed the event. She wasn't invited. And that's Jason "Gummi Bear" Davis with her… sources say they're dating. Ugh.
