Shmuley Boteach Hitches His Wagon to Tiger Woods’ Tarnished Star
By Jewcy Staff / December 17, 2009If there’s a Jewish, quasi-Jewish, or non-Jewish celebrity who needs spiritual guidance of the Old Testament variety, they can count on Rabbi Shmuley Boteach to be close at hand. And it just so happens that Shmuley is in the market for a new mentee: first, his friend Michael Jackson passed away (but Shmuley still managed to exploit Jackson in a book documenting some of their private conversations); then TV dad and Shmuley advisee Jon Gosselin was ordered to stay out of the public eye while being sued for breach of contract by the TLC network. So who’s next? Maybe Tiger Woods is in need of more help in his image rehabilitation project. It looks like Shmuley’s trying to position himself as Woods’ potential new BFF, as evidenced in this clip below.

And I couldn’t agree with you more, Lilit (reading your comment). Celebrity and religion make uncomfortable bedfellows.
Oh, man, I went to that debate and it was painful: http://www.jewcy.com/faithhacker/royal_rumble_hitchens_vs_boteach
