Elin Nordegren gives her first and last interview. Lindsay Lohan is freed from rehab. Heidi Montag wants her old boobs back, but not before she sells her sex tape. Wednesday gossip declares its independence.

  • Elin Nordegren gave her first and last interview to People magazine: "I've been through hell." The interview is a class act, which means it's terribly boring, but Elin "fee[s] stronger than I ever have," so that's good. "I have been through the stages of disbelief and shock, to anger and ultimately grief over the loss of the family I so badly wanted for my children," the she says. The former Mrs. Tiger Woods won't say how much she got in the divorce settlement, only that "money can't buy happiness or put my family back together." She denies physically abusing Tiger: "There was never any violence inside or outside our home. The speculation that I would have used a golf club to hit him is just truly ridiculous." She adroitly avoids all juicy topics and burning questions (like How the hell did he his pack-a-day hooker addiction from you?) which is pretty impressive given the inherent juiciness of the situation. Avoidance is the new eloquence. [People, HuffPo]
