So, like, what's up with Tiger Woods this morning?

...brought to you by some delicious Swedish Christmas saffron buns.

Elin is going home for Christmas "Escaping the media glare, Elin Nordegren is taking the kids and traveling to her homeland for the holidays, a source tells People. “Elin is going to Sweden soon,” the source says. “Two stewardesses and one pilot are in Sweden with the plane now getting it ready to come pick them up.” The initial plan was for Nordegren, 29, and the family to travel to Sweden in January. But those plans changed. Woods is not expected to come along. Nordegren’s mother, Barbo Holmber, has returned to Sweden after coming to her daughter’s side after the Thanksgiving morning crisis, and ending up in the hospital after complaining of stomach pain. Sources caution that Nordegren’s holiday trip to Sweden, where she recently purchased a $2.3 million country retreat outside Stockholm, is not a permanent one as she plans to split her time between both countries. But she still still intends to separate from Woods. “She plans to leave Tiger,” a source told People after she was photographed sans wedding ring near her Florida home."

Jessica Simpson denies silly story "A report that Jessica Simpson and Tiger Woods once flirted is a complete lie, the singer says. "Can't believe that I'm on the cover of star magazine with Tiger Woods, what a JOKE! 'The Shocking Inside Story' is (insert drumroll) A LIE!" Simpson, 29, Tweeted Wednesday. According to the Star magazine report, the two exchanged e-mails and phone numbers after clicking at the AT&T National Pro-Am golf tournament in Bethesda, Md., in July. Woods had been partnered with Tony Romo, who split with Simpson later that month. Kenny Chesney has shot down similar rumors of a flirtation with Simpson that supposedly happened around the same time." People.

Cobain family says Courtney is a bad parent "Kurt Cobain's family claims Courtney Love has been an unfit parent for years - and the plan to take custody of Frances Bean Cobain has been years in the making. Charles Fradenburg - Kurt Cobain's uncle - told TMZ his sister Wendy O'Conner "has been trying to get custody of Frances for quite a few years." As we first reported, a judge appointed Wendy - who is Kurt's mother - as one of the two guardians of Frances Bean last week. Fradenburg also tells us, "Courtney is not fit to take care of Frances, she can barely take care of herself ... Courtney wasn't doing any parenting at all, she was hiring nannies to do all of the work."

Carrell and Fey to work together again? From THR: "Are Steve Carell and Tina Fey teaming up once again? The duo, who will be seen opposite each other in next year's "Date Night," are loosely attached to star in "Mail-Order Groom," a Warner Bros. comedy about a naive single woman who can't find love and ends up with a husband from Eastern Europe, bringing him home to the States."

I like the way that Rich Ross guy thinks "In what marks the third high-profile film that Disney has halted since Rich Ross took the studio reins, “Wild Hogs 2: Bachelor Ride” has been scrapped.  The Touchstone Pictures sequel to the 2007 hit was revving up to begin production by next summer, with Walt Becker back as director, and John Travolta, Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence and William H. Macy reprising their roles as biker pals in mid-life crisis. The move comes after the studio pulled the plug on another Touchstone comedy - the Robin Williams-Anna Faris comedy “Wedding Banned.” Last month, Disney drydocked “20,000 Leagues Under the Sea,” a Disney label production which was steaming toward a February production start." Variety. 

Spawn "Director Sofia Coppola and Thomas Mars, the frontman for the band Phoenix, are expecting their second child, the rocker has confirmed. In a backstage interview with Chicago's WXRT, the French-born musician, seemingly surprised, nodded affirmatively when asked about partner Coppola being pregnant." People.

People Magazine claims Elin is leaving Tiger

Well, well, well. Let's remember that People rarely gets it wrong. "The holidays may bring a final showdown in the marriage of Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren, a source close to the golfer's wife tells People, saying, "She plans to leave Tiger." Another source says, "She's made up her mind. There's nothing to think about: he's never going to change," People reports in its upcoming issue, on newsstands Friday. Photos circulated this week, showing Nordegren, 29, pumping gas into her vehicle near the couple's home in Windermere, Fla., last Saturday, also captured the Swedish-born former nanny and mother of two (Sam, 2, and Charlie, 10 months), not wearing her wedding ring. While the missing band "meant nothing," insists a source, a high-profile Florida divorce attorney tells People that Nordegren has met with lawyers to renegotiate the Woods' prenuptial agreement. On Thursday, workers began moving large items including what appeared to be works of art out of the couple's home in Windermere, Fla., and Nordegren was seen giving them instructions, according to the New York Post."
