Tiger Woods’ Celebrity Friends Concerned About His Isolation
Tiger Woods’ seclusion is a cause of concern for many of his celebrity friends.
Charles Barkeley said on the CNN HLN program, “With All Due Respect,” that Tiger has changed his cell phone number and is not talking to some of his equally famous friends.
“I think when you have these fires in your life, as I call them, you need to talk to somebody else who is famous who [has] been through things in their life,” Barkley said. “I don’t think you can talk about it to your family and friends, because your family and friends, they’re not famous.”
On the same progam, filmmaker Spike Lee said he had hoped Barkley or retired NBA star Michael Jordan could counsel Woods on how to survive the crisis.
“He’s insulated,” Lee said. “If Charles Barkley and Michael Jordan can’t get to him, and those are his boys, then other people are making bad moves.”
CNN reported that Woods, in a written statement that acknowledged “my infidelity,” announced last week that he is taking “an indefinite break” from professional golf.
