INTRODUCING RACHEL UCHITEL: FROM 9/11 VICTIM TO CELEBRITY SEX TOY
Tiger Woods with wife Elin Nordegren
The story of Tiger Woods‘ car crash this week is very odd. Initial reports suggested he’d innocently driven into a fire hydrant at the bottom of his drive, but we’re now hearing that he was found with facial lacerations that were more consistent with an attack, and that his Swedish model wife Elin Nordegren was on the scene and had smashed in his car windows with a golf club – apparently to rescue him. The facts of the case are not yet clear, but all clues are starting to point to a domestic incident and the internet is awash with rumours that the reason may have been an affair Tiger was allegedly having with NY socialite Rachel Uchitel.
Rachel Uchitel: Distraught on 9/11
Rachel wasn’t on our radar until this week but having done our research she jumps immediately onto our B list for being perhaps the most talented social climber of our lifetime. Her curious story begins on 9/11, when she lost fiance Andy O’Grady in the Twin Tower attacks and became something of a celebrity following the publication of a photograph of her looking distraught as she searched for him. Rachel appears to have used the resulting media attention as a platform for launching herself onto the New York party circuit, finding that a glamorous make-over and suggestions of a few C-List notches on her bedpost were all it took to gatecrash the socialite scene.
Rachel Uchitel: Famewhore
Rachel has undergone something of a transformation since 2001 and is practically un-recognisable from the 9/11 photo that launched her. Following a four month marriage to Wall Street Trader Steve Ehrenkranz in 2004, she’s been linked to a string of men including nightclub entrepreneur Jason Strauss and Bones actor David Boreanz. Most recently there were rumours of an affair with Tiger, fuelled by her staying at the same Melbourne hotel as him during the Australian Open. We wouldn’t be surprised if poor Tiger is completely innocent and this crazed attention-seeker set the whole thing up!
One thing is for sure, this sort of scandal is exactly what Rachel needed to move from the fringes of celebrity slap bang into the pages of every gossip column in the world. Hats off to her for a job very well done.

Tiger Woods’ serious car accident was so funny (guess wifey caught up with his lies). It was reported that Woods went for a drive after having a fight with wife Elin Nordegren over an alleged affair the golfer had with Rachel Uchitel prior to the accident. But what I’d really want to know, who exactly is Rachel Uchitel and is she Tiger Woods’ mistress??
good article as usual!
Good blog. Much of it sounds like I wrote it myself! It’s reassuring to see I’m not the only one who generally regards celebrities as a bunch of pimps and whores with very little in the way of scruples. Scruples get in the way of the fun, don’t ya know!
