In case anyone cares, that might be (probably) pictures of Tiger Woods naked. Likely taken by one of his bajillion mistresses. Or maybe it was “Tiger Wang, Self-Portrait”. Anyway, Life & Style is reporting that Playgirl is trying to authenticate the photos, which they have already received. I would actually pay for a Playgirl subscription if Tiger was doing the same softcore “Wang, With Hockey Glove” poses as Levi Johnston.

But the real story isn’t about Tiger’s nude wang. The real story is how much money every single woman who has ever touched his nude wang is making from selling her story. I almost wrote “every single man or woman” and “his or her story”. Because, first and foremost, no judgment. And secondly, you know there’s at least one dude out there you touched Tiger’s wang in some kind of crazy, sexy Ambien haze. First up, The Original Mistress, Rachel Uchitel – except not really, she was just the first one we heard about. Thus far, Rachel has being quiet. Sources tell Radar that she’s going to stay quiet as long as she gets something in the neighborhood of $1 million to $3.2 million. Radar also reports that Uchitel has been offered mid-range six figures by the media to tell her story.

Tiger Woods made the decision to pay off his most recent mistress Rachel Uchitel after a secret phone call where she made it clear to the golfing great that she did not leak the story of their romance, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.

As Tiger’s serial cheating started to become national headlines after his one-car crash on November 27th, Woods believed that Uchitel posed the biggest problem for him.

Tiger and Uchitel had been having an affair for the past five months and the National Enquirer broke the news shortly before his accident. Uchitel vehemently denied the report publicly, even though she was caught in a series of lies and contradictions.

Suspicion immediately fell on Uchitel among Tiger’s team, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively. His lawyers and reps believed she had leaked the story of their affair, sources close to the situation told RadarOnline.com.

But in a secret phone call, Uchitel convinced Tiger that she had nothing to do with the publication of the story.

“She told Tiger, ‘I didn’t talk,’” one source with knowledge of the situation told RadarOnline.com exclusively. And Tiger believed her.

But Uchitel hired power attorney Gloria Allred and it soon became clear that the party girl was now going to cash in on the situation, either by making a deal with Tiger or talking to the highest bidder. With Allred involved, Tiger knew he could no longer count on Uchitel to remain loyal and he made the decision to pay her.

RadarOnline.com reported exclusively that Uchitel is collecting from $1 million to $3 million. And as we were first to report, Uchitel has hundreds of explicit text messages and emails from Tiger, communications that leave no doubt about the sexual nature of their relationship.

Tiger felt it was important to silence Uchitel more than any other woman because his relationship with her was current and intense. RadarOnline.com reported exclusively he paid for her travel to meet him in Australia in November. He was also going to pay for her to travel to meet him in Dubai, RadarOnline.com learned exclusively. And Tiger knew there would be little doubt about the intensity of their relationship if their texts and emails became public.

So despite advice from some people in his camp who didn’t want to give in to Allred or pay Uchitel anything, Tiger took control and made the final decision to pay her.

Next up, the other girlfriends/one-night-stands/pr0n stars/hookers/whatever. What, perchance, are they getting paid. Well, Tiger’s not paying them… yet. So far, they (and their friends) have been getting money from media outlets, like Us Weekly and Radar. Accordingly, Radar reports that Jaimee Grubbs (the one who sold her story to Us Weekly) was paid $150,000. I saw an Us Weekly editor on Reliable Sources over the weekend, and he wouldn’t confirm the number however – I tend to think the figure could be higher, considering Grubbs provided Us Weekly with voice mail messages, et cetera. Radar also claims Grubbs has hired a p.r. firm to make even more money from her tenuous claim to fame (“And introducing Tiger Woods’ third mistress!”).

Who else is getting paid? Jamie Jungers, the woman who came out this past weekend, the “Las Vegas model”. Apparently, the rumor is that Jungers got $60,000 from the British press for her story – even though she didn’t talk on the record about what happened. Meanwhile, just because some of these… ladies… aren’t selling their stories, keep in mind that their friends are potentially picking up five-figure paydays, like Uchitel’s “friends” who started this damn thing by selling their story to the National Enquirer. The Enquirer paid those women $25,000. Each. Incredible. I wish one of my friends nailed Tiger Woods. I would sell her (or him!) out so fast, it would make your head spin.
