In all his years of playing professional golf, Tiger Woods has obviously learned NOTHING from the masters.
We've seen a lot of different celebrities having problems this year (Rihanna nude photos, Cassie nude photos leak, Miley Cyrus tattoo etc) but most of those problems ended up helping the celebrities involved in them either by increasing music record sales or by just increasing the celebrities overall popularity... Tiger Woods on the other hand is not getting any richer and Tiger certainly isn't gaining increased popularity from the public.
Tiger Woods went several days without saying ANYTHING at all about his car accident, the potential domestic dispute with his wife, Elin Nordegren or about all the rumors of his extra-marital affairs. Tiger did eventually release a statement though on his website saying...
"I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart. I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves. I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect. I am dealing with my behavior and personal failings behind closed doors with my family. Those feelings should be shared by us alone.
Although I am a well-known person and have made my career as a professional athlete, I have been dismayed to realize the full extent of what tabloid scrutiny really means. For the last week, my family and I have been hounded to expose intimate details of our personal lives. The stories in particular that physical violence played any role in the car accident were utterly false and malicious. Elin has always done more to support our family and shown more grace than anyone could possibly expect.
But no matter how intense curiosity about public figures can be, there is an important and deep principle at stake which is the right to some simple, human measure of privacy. I realize there are some who don't share my view on that. But for me, the virtue of privacy is one that must be protected in matters that are intimate and within one's own family. Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn't have to mean public confessions.
Whatever regrets I have about letting my family down have been shared with and felt by us alone. I have given this a lot of reflection and thought and I believe that there is a point at which I must stick to that principle even though it's difficult.
I will strive to be a better person and the husband and father that my family deserves. For all of those who have supported me over the years, I offer my profound apology."
The truth is though that most celebrities know that there is NO such thing as private... Honestly, I don't even think the word 'private' should be in a celebrities vocabulary at all.
Cassie Ventura immediately issued a response after nude photos of her got leaked on the Internet. Within 48 hours Cassie made a post on her website saying...
The recent personal pictures that have been leaked on the internet of me were hacked and stolen out of my computer. These photos were obviously never intended for the world to see and it’s sad that people would really take time to steal and post them, it’s just evil. At the end of the day breasts are breasts, mine weren’t the first you’ve seen and they won’t be the last… people need to grow up, let’s move on. Thank you.
Cassie
A year or so back, when Miley Cyrus got caught up in the Vanity Fair scandal... Miley was quick to offer a statement saying...
"I took part in a photo shoot that was supposed to be 'artistic' and now, seeing the photographs and reading the story, I feel so embarrassed."
Now Miley was ONLY 15 years old when this happened (Maybe 16) and she was still old enough and mature enough to know that she needed to say something... And what she said didn't solve the problem... But it 'helped' reduce the severity of it.
Cassie didn't need to say anything... But the statement she made received a LOT of positive responses, which HELPED her. Had Cassie Ventura said nothing at all about the nude photo leak... It would of hurt her.
Politicians know that public opinion matters... And a smart celebrity knows that public opinion matters over everything else too.
Musicians can't sell records if everyone on the planet hates them. Politicians can't get voted into office if everyone hates them. Actors and Actresses can't win leading roles in movies or television shows if the general population hates them because people won't actually want to watch what they are in and since no one wants to watch something that they are staring in... Investors would end up losing thousands or maybe even millions of dollars, which means no one would be willing to finance the the tv show or movie either...
Public opinion matters above all else... And Tiger Woods has become the most disliked man in America...
Tiger Woods has virtually vanished from television and Tiger Woods has lost his product line (Tiger Force) with Gatorade. Why? Because no one likes him, which means that NO ONE wants to buy anything that he has something to do with (that whole public image and public opinion thing again) and this means NO ONE wants to invest in him either.
It's possible that the public has the wrong idea about Tiger Woods. It's possible that the affairs are just a creation of the media or possible that the women that are claiming to have had affairs are just seeking some of the millions of dollars that Tiger has gained over the years.
Unfortunately though, Tiger Woods is so busy trying to stick his driver in different holes right now that he's totally forgotten to stick it in the one hole that truly matters... Public Opinion.
It obvious though that Tiger Woods is like an old-school medieval king though... He cares about himself and he doesn't give a damn about the people he's supposed to be governing (all of his fans).
I guess when push comes to shove... Tiger Woods is the world's dumbest and most egotistical celebrity. Cassie Ventura, Miley Cyrus, Rihanna, Chris Brown and MANY other celebrities were at least smart enough to offer some clarification for some of the mistakes they made, which is the only reason they aren't as hated as they could have been... Like Tiger Woods is now!

Tiger Woods: Capitol Punishment
Some of the photos from Muse have been released and Lindsay Lohan was 'okay' with the nudity... as long as it was done artistically, which I don't personally see...
Some may disagree but I don't think a 17 year old should be wearing a dress like this... Especially for such a formal event...
Anyone care to share their Thoughts?
If we all look at the way women act today and compare their modern day actions to the ways that women used to act... We see some very big differences in the way younger girls and women act. While there are a lot of reasons as to why girls act so differently, I am inclined to blame the majority of it on parenting and guardianship in general. Let's take a look at teenage celebrity Miley Cyrus... Because she is a popular example of everything I mean.
Miley Cyrus Gets Sexy For Vanity Fair
Annie Leibovitz did a photo shoot with Miley Cyrus for Vanity Fair magazine, which ended up creating a rather large commotion because Miley was wrapped up in nothing more than a towel.
Sure, normally this doesn't seem to strange compared to what we see on magazine covers today but Miley Cyrus was still only 15 years old and had very recently been exposed for controversial sexual photos (sexting photos) from her Myspace page.
Miley Cyrus and her parents issued statements claiming that Leibovitz manipulated Miley into allowing the photo to be taken... But how can a 15 year old girl be manipulated when her parents (who were both present during the photo shoot) could have objected and stopped the entire thing.
The truth is that Annie Leibovitz violated Miley by taking advantage of the fact that Miley's sexual Myspace photos were a hot topic and therefore she knew that a sexy half-naked photo of Miley Cyrus on the cover of Vanity Fair would sell a lot of magazines. Miley's parents also failed to see a dangerous situation and whats even worse... Miley's parents failed to prevent Miley from being manipulated and violated.
In the end... Miley was just a minor 15 year old girl and the parents and guardians that were supposed to protect her... Completely and totally failed to do so.
Miley Cyrus's FIRST Nipple Slip
Despite all the bad press little Miley has gotten over her Myspace photos, Miley has continued to grow with little to no harm done... Until she had her first accidental nipple slip.
While doing a video shoot in a low cut white dress... Miley Cyrus suffered what most people would refer to as a wardrobe malfunction, which caused her left breast to become exposed.
Once again, Miley can't be blamed on this one either. Miley shouldn't have been wearing a dress like this or the production company should have made sure that it was as securely fastened as possible to prevent this type of thing from happening. Thankfully though, the image is so poor that it doesn't even look like a nipple... All you really see is Miley's hair hanging down.
Miley Cyrus's Second 'Intentional' Nipple Slip
Just a few days ago Miley Cyrus was flaunting the new tattoo she got below her left breast (in honor of the White Horse Nip Slip?) that says, "Just Breathe". During the afternoons festivities Miley decided to do a little sun-bathing and loosened her bikini... Which came VERY close to being Miley's first accidental (intentional) nip slip.
I'm going to place blame for this on both Miley and Miley's parents though because Miley should know better than to risk going topless around a bunch of photographers and Miley's parents should have taught Miley better than to childishly sun-bathe with her top off while around people she doesn't know (especially photographers).
The simple truth is that most of these situations could have been avoided if Miley's parents had done their jobs. Most of these situations also could have been avoided if the 'adults' surrounding Miley weren't always trying to use her as a way to make a few extra bucks.
This seems to be a popular trend amongst girls today... Everyone knows women are sexy and everyone wants women to show their sex appeal... So they can make money from it.
I think it is about time parents took control over their children and taught them about acting 'proper'. You know what 'proper' is right? Simple things like keeping your legs closed while wearing a dress or sitting with your legs crossed... Don't take naked pictures of yourself and send it to friends... All the simple things parents used to remind their daughters of.
It's amazing how much women and parents have changed... and Miley Cyrus reminds us of that EVERYDAY! Some people refer to this as 'women finally taking control over their lives' but finding new ways of making yourself seem 'easy' isn't the type of behavior former feminine-activists were trying to teach women about and it's a modern trend that we're all responsible for stopping... Parents, friends, guardians... Everyone.
Well, 2009 is coming to a close and that means it is time recap some of the interesting celebrity moments (blunders) from 2009.
Joahkim Noah Blows Off Some Steam
The Chicago Bulls had a historic playoff series against the Boston Celtics, which the Celtics eventually won in dramatic fashion. Following the devastating defeat... Noah retreated from the United States were he eventually got busted for swimming with this very sexy and totally topless beauty. While they are not posted... The media also posted photos of Noah drinking and smoking pot with this lovely girl and some other friends.
Carrie Prejean Loses Miss California Crown
I have no doubt that everyone knows who Carrie Prejean is... Carrie Prejean became famous when she spoke out against gay marriage during the Miss USA pageant. Given the fact that homosexuality is such a huge political topic... Carrie Prejean's comments have remained in the news headlines for more than 6 consecutive months.
Carrie Prejean made headlines again after she claimed herself to be a religious person... That likes to pose nude. Later Prejean made headlines again when Vivid Entertainment got their hands on a homeade sex video staring... You guested it... Carrie Prejean... The miracle saint.
The nude photos of Carrie Prejean cost her the Miss California crown and the sex tape later cost her a lawsuit when the pageant lawyers used the sex tape as leverage against her.
Shanna Moakler Lectures Carrie Prejean About Nude Photos
Shanna Moakler became disgusted by Carrie Prejeans nude photos and used them as a partial reason for why Moakler was resigning from the Miss Universe Organization. Ironically though... Moakler has posed nude several different times and shouldn't be lecturing Carrie Prejean about posing nude.
Adam Lambert Gets Sexual During American Music Awards
As Carrie Prejean has learned... Homosexuality is a huge topic right now and Adam Lambert obviously doesn't care.
Adam Lambert was the runner-up this year on American Idol and a lot of rumors have started that Adam's homosexuality caused him to lose the title since his competitor was a good little Christian boy.
Adam Lambert made a special performance during the recent AMA event were he kissed another man on stage and made a rather nice pelvic thrust with another man's face rested against his crotch.
This performance sparked a whole new debate, which led to Adam Lambert getting removed from upcoming television shows and has sparked numerous responses from GLAAD.
Cassie Ventura's Computer Gets Hacked - Nude Photos Released
In May of 2009, Cassandra (Cassie) Ventura accidentally threw a fit after she realized that her computer had been hacked into and then proceeded to post a thread about it on the popular networking website, Twitter.
"IT SEEMS THAT SOMEONE HAS HACKED INTO MY COMPUTER...THAT'S REAL FOUL AND EVIL. NOW STOP ACTING LIKE YOU HAVEN'T SEEN A TITTY BEFORE."
Following this childish outburst... Two Nude photos of Cassie Ventura got leaked on the Internet. Given the fact that Cassie had already given everyone a heads up... People all over the world started searching for the nude photos since they knew that the nude photos were in fact REAL.
Cassie later wrote a response on her blog saying, "The recent personal pictures that have been leaked on the internet of me were hacked and stolen out of my computer. These photos were obviously never intended for the world to see and it’s sad that people would really take time to steal and post them, it’s just evil. At the end of the day breasts are breasts, mine weren’t the first you’ve seen and they won’t be the last… people need to grow up, let’s move on. Thank you."
Following this statement... A third nude photo of Cassie Ventura was released and this time it was a lot more revealing than the previous breast photos as this new one caught Cassie completely spread eagle... Completely open for the world to see.
Hopefully Cassie learned a lesson... Don't go off and tell the world that you're computer got hacked into...
Nude Photos of Rihanna Surface
Immediately following the release of the Cassie Ventura photos there were also some nude photos of Rihanna leaked. Rihanna was a little smarter than Cassie though in that she didn't publicly complain about it... Rihanna fled to Hawaii and focused on recording her new album until the nude photo scandal passed.
Emma Watson Black Bikini Nip Slip
Harry Potter star Emma Watson was recently spotted swimming with her boyfriend, Jay Barrymore... Unfortunately for Emma though... The skimpy little black bikini couldn't keep her perky nipples contained.
Miley Cyrus Gets A Tattoo
Miley Cyrus has been all over the news several different times (Vanity Fair and Sexting photos) but she recently made headlines again after photos of Miley Cyrus in a pink bikini hit the Internet... But the pink bikini wasn't the topic of discussion... The tattoo under her left breast that says, "Just Breathe" was!
A lot of people wonder why her parents would allow her to get a tattoo under her breast since she is only 17 years old. Personally... I don't consider it a surprise since her parents had already let Miley Cyrus pose partially nude for Vanity Fair magazine.
Tiger Woods Sex Addiction Surfaces - Causes Car Accident
Tiger Woods is a very famous African-American golfer that is known for both his golfing skills and his ability to maintain privacy... It would appear though that Tiger Woods is private about anything and everything other than his private parts.
Recently Tiger Woods got into a car accident where he smashed his Cadillac SUV into both a fire hydrant and a tree. Immediately following this incident... Rumors surfaced that Tiger Woods wife, Elin Nordegren had assaulted Tiger due to Tiger having an affair, which caused Tiger to flee his house quickly, which ultimately caused the car accident.
Shortly after the car accident Tiger Woods wrote a statement on his website saying, "I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart. I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves. I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect. I am dealing with my behavior and personal failings behind closed doors with my family. Those feelings should be shared by us alone.
Although I am a well-known person and have made my career as a professional athlete, I have been dismayed to realize the full extent of what tabloid scrutiny really means. For the last week, my family and I have been hounded to expose intimate details of our personal lives. The stories in particular that physical violence played any role in the car accident were utterly false and malicious. Elin has always done more to support our family and shown more grace than anyone could possibly expect.
But no matter how intense curiosity about public figures can be, there is an important and deep principle at stake which is the right to some simple, human measure of privacy. I realize there are some who don't share my view on that. But for me, the virtue of privacy is one that must be protected in matters that are intimate and within one's own family. Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn't have to mean public confessions.
Whatever regrets I have about letting my family down have been shared with and felt by us alone. I have given this a lot of reflection and thought and I believe that there is a point at which I must stick to that principle even though it's difficult.
I will strive to be a better person and the husband and father that my family deserves. For all of those who have supported me over the years, I offer my profound apology."
Given the claims that have surfaced that Tiger Woods had an affair with four or more women simply means that Tiger Woods is a sex addict and he needs to get psychiatric help. Obviously this will hurt his image since he is refusing to admit that he is suffering from an addiction to sex.
A new rumor has also surfaced that one of Tiger Woods mistresses... Rachel Uchitel is pregnant. Some people think that Elin Nordegren found out that Rachel was pregnant and this led to Elin losing control and then she attacked Tiger.
Given the fact that Rachel canceled a press conference at the last minute is also an indication that this rumor is true. Rachel claimed she was afraid for her life and if she really is pregnant with Tiger Woods baby... Uchitel has a very legitimate fear.
Nude Photos of Ashley Greene Surface
Nude photos of Twilight's Ashley Greene hit the Internet this past August. Needless to say... Given the fact that Twilight is a big draw amongst the teenage crowd... These nude photos got a lot of extra attention (stimulation?).
Ashley Greene quickly had her lawyer confirm that the photos were indeed real; that Ashley took the photos herself and that she wanted all the websites to take the photos down unless they wanted to be sued for copyright infringement.
Well... There it is... Some of the biggest celebrity blunders of 2009. I wonder what will happen in 2010? We'll all find out soon enough!
What was your favorite celebrity blunder this year? Feel free to post your comments and let everyone know or feel free to let us all know what you think we will see in 2010 (Miley Cyrus Turns 18!).

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe has decided to take it all off in a broadway production...
While some may disagree... This seems a little inappropriate to me... I would expect that producers would have created contract clauses that voided these types of things from happening until AFTER the kids Harry Potter craze passed.
Tiger Woods has admitted to cheating on his wife Elin Nordegren in some round-a-bout ways. Tiger posted a statement on his website saying...
"I have let my family down and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart. I have not been true to my values and the behavior my family deserves. I am not without faults and I am far short of perfect. I am dealing with my behavior and personal failings behind closed doors with my family. Those feelings should be shared by us alone. But no matter how intense curiosity about public figures can be, there is an important and deep principle at stake which is the right to some simple, human measure of privacy. I realize there are some who don't share my view on that. But for me, the virtue of privacy is one that must be protected in matters that are intimate and within one's own family. Personal sins should not require press releases and problems within a family shouldn't have to mean public confessions." Now it doesn't take a rocket scientist to read between the lines and see that Tiger Woods has admitted to sticking his driver in women other than his wife, Elin Nordegren. While I must applaud Tiger for wanting to maintain some level of privacy (most celebrities would leech this type of material dry like an infant suckling at it's mothers breasts) a statement is actually needed... Tiger Woods has had an affair with at least one other woman for sure and there are alleged reports that Tiger Woods has had an affair with several different women. This type of behavior goes beyond a casual 'mistake' like everyone is trying to pass it off as. To me... I'm seeing some potential sex addiction issues, intimacy issues and many other possible issues that might mean Tiger Woods needs professional psychiatric help. More than 10,000 people have posted comments on Tiger's website offering him support. Some of these encouraging comments have come from religious people stating, "All people make mistakes and now you've seen an error in your ways." I recall a time that my grandfather randomly spoke to me about the one and only affair he ever had. He spoke to me about how he got married too young and had one stupid moment were he wondered if he was missing something... My grandfather made a mistake... a mistake that cost him dearly... a mistake that he deeply regrets... and a mistake that he has never repeated. Tiger Woods on the other hand... Has CONTINUALLY committed this SAME mistake over and over and over again for multiple years... with MULTIPLE women. If Tiger Woods felt any guilt or remorse for cheating on his wife, Elin Nordegren he would NOT have continued cheating for several years and he would not have cheated with multiple women.
