BREAKING NEWS: Tiger Woods Takes Indefinite Hiatus from Golf
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Sports, Rumors,
I guess the paparazzi can stop staking out the golf courses.
In a statement just posted on his website, Tiger Woods says he’s going to be taking an indefinite leave of absence from his sport:
I am deeply aware of the disappointment and hurt that my infidelity has caused to so many people, most of all my wife and children. I want to say again to everyone that I am profoundly sorry and that I ask forgiveness. It may not be possible to repair the damage I’ve done, but I want to do my best to try.
I would like to ask everyone, including my fans, the good people at my foundation, business partners, the PGA Tour, and my fellow competitors, for their understanding. What’s most important now is that my family has the time, privacy, and safe haven we will need for personal healing.
After much soul searching, I have decided to take an indefinite break from professional golf. I need to focus my attention on being a better husband, father, and person.
Again, I ask for privacy for my family and I am especially grateful for all those who have offered compassion and concern during this difficult period.

Lily Allen to Take 2-Year Break
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Rumors,
Despite what her rep tried to cover up, Lily Allen is quitting music!
Well, okay, maybe just taking a two-year break from it, anyway.
The “Smile” singer - who failed to renew her recording contract in September - confirmed she will indeed take a break from pop and plans to start a record label for new artists.
“My last concert is my Dizzee Rascal concert at The O2 Arena in March. That’s the last thing I’ve got planned. I’m just going to concentrate on doing some behind the scenes sort of stuff. I will take one or two years off from recording and performing music.”
While she takes a break she wants to set up a rental fashion store with her sister Sarah called Lucy In Disguise.
“It’s about making fashion democratic, that’s the idea behind it. It’s about getting really nice clothes but letting people rent them for affordable prices so they can go out and feel like a million dollars and it won’t cost them a million dollars.”
During her hiatus, Lily also plans to just “spend some time in the home” she’s built for herself.
