Oprah Has Her Eye on the Tiger

By Rob Shuter Posted Dec 3rd 2009 01:14PM

PopEater has learned exclusively that Oprah Winfrey has called Tiger Woods herself to offer him advice, comfort ... and the opportunity to tell his side of the ever-developing Tiger-gate drama on her couch. "Everyone in the TV business wants this interview," a source tells PopEater's Rob Shuter.

"Matt Lauer, Barbara Walters and Larry King's people have all called, but only lady O has personally reached out," the source said.

Although it makes perfect sense for the troubled golfer to sit down with the TV queen -- someone he trusts and respects -- it's by no means a done deal. Hey, Barbara Walters, we hear Tiger likes daisies and bon bons!

Oprah Winfrey is seen here in tears as she tells the world that her daytime TV show will end in 2011. We're guessing she'll be crying for joy if she lands Tiger Woods.

I think they may stay together now, but, it's only a matter of time. It's not the same as the Clintons because that's politics and she's a politician so she knows how it works, but, Elin Nordegren is a beautiful, young woman that one day is going to tell herself that she's had enough. Alot of people are saying that Tiger Woods is a red blooded man who made a mistake, but, maybe if it had been some regular old couple after while things would simmer down, but, Miss Nordegrn has been humiliated in front of the whole world. Everyday the media is there trying to talk to her and no doubt she spends her days in her home crying with her friends trying to keep the media away. After awhile the hurt will lighten up, but,it won't ever go away and whenever he's late or isn't where he says he'll be this whole thing will be right with her. After awhile it won't seem so bad what Tiger did, but, she'll never forget.

Who is Oprah? No one cares what she thinks or says!

By patti

I agree with you that he should not do any interviews with anyone. This is now a private matter between himself and his wife.

This story has more attention than the health care issue or the war in the middle east. What a shame..............

By anonymous

There must really be something wrong with Tiger's wife if he's stepping out on her!

By tie

Oprah is a racist pig and so is Tiger Woods(I dont care that he is married to a white woman read his biography)

I DO NOT like Oprah and WILL NEVER watch her show again. My daughter works and makes her living on tips. I do NOT like what she said about cutting tips bacck to 10%. She only makes 2.15 an hr. Maybe you should get 10% of your earnings.

Not Oprah but Kobe might be lookin to offer some advice.

By JB

Will someone please inform fat ass Oprah that her new role in life is NOT to try and promote or save every "Brotha". She still needs to explain how her annual discovery of permanent weight loss and the secrets of joyfull life have fallen so publicly short of what was promised. Then work on others.

By Clarence Scott

He should not interview with anyone. The only person that he owes an explanation to is his wife. Everyone else should just mind their own business. It's a private matter. End of discussion.

By babs

What in world makes Oprah think she is qualified to give advice on relationships? She has one of the most screwed up personal lives around..... I for one am going to be thrilled to see her gone... although that is probably wishful thinking! She had to go and give 2 years notice to be sure that she gets enough press before she leaves to make us all really sick of hearing about her..... Hopefully she will run off and disappear....

By MrsHubbyD

NO, a "mistake" is when you accidentally do something that is wrong, and don't realize it. THIS was a CHOICE. He could have had an affair, or he could have said, "I have a beautiful family at home, and I love them, so I would never do anything to hurt them"...PERIOD. That attitude is why most marriages don't last....because people always want to excuse this kind of behavior as a "mistake". As long as heads are buried in the sand, and people look the other way, this will keep happening, and people will keep making excuses for it!

FIRST, TIGER SHOULD BUY AN OLD CADILLAC AND BUILD IT LIKE A PIMPMOBILE. THEN HE SHOULD BUY SOME 1970'S FURRY CLOTHES AND A WIDE BRIMMED HAT. THEN DRIVE AROUND TOWN WAVING AT PEOPLE. THE PRESS WOULD THINK HE WENT CRAZY AND WOULD LEAVE HIM ALONE.

By jimheinzelman

Tiger AND Oprah both need to just dry up and blow away in the wind. I might also point out that Tiger's wife is a "Trophy Wife". If Tiger was not filthy rich she would not have given him a second look. Lets get real, she married the bankbook, not the man.

By Lisa in KC

You are correct, which is the reason I do not feel sorry for her. Most groupies get what they deserve.

LOL@ RED!! I love that!!

By william egan

Can anyone tell me what advise Oprah can give Tiger? She is not married has no children and we are not sure of her relationship with Gayle. I am not married and have no children and was raise by European parents who when they had marital problems went to a priest. That to me seems as silly as going to Oprah.

Maybe he should call someone who has had this problem Like Madonna. This might sound stupid but she probably has more to advise than Oprah.

By mick

Would Oprah be sucking up to this guy if he were white? She will support a person 100% if the person is black. I will be glad to see her go.

By Blakerin

OH! Oprah, please, please just go away!
