Monica Lewinsky - Single, living with her mother and still struggling with her weight - but 'set to make $12m with a tell-all book about her affair with Clinton'
Stepping into the pouring rain, her thick hair swept up underneath a cap and rather bizarrely wearing sunglasses despite the gloomy New York weather, the woman went about her business without attracting a single gaze from passers-by.
The first picture of Monica Lewinsky, 39, in public for the first time in a year, paints a very different portrait from the young intern who achieved global notoriety after her sordid Oval Office affair with President Bill Clinton.
But her low-key life may not last much longer amid reports she is planning to pen an intimate, tell-all book about her affair with President Clinton that will plunge her right back into the spotlight.
She's been offered $12m to write the book, according to reports and it is said to include her intimate love letters to the ex-president and how he desired threesomes.
Is it revenge on her former flame? She certainly must have been aggrieved to watch as he managed to keep his family and career together in the fallout that followed the affair. But for Monica, she has never been able to emerge from its shadow and be known for anything other than that girl who wore that dress and had that affair.
There is no husband, as she dreamed of, no boyfriend, and no children, despite saying that she was 'romantic at heart' and that getting married and having kids was 'the most important thing to me.'
Monica cuts a much different figure now than at age 22
I saw her at an event at the time of the scandal and she was ghostly white, chubby and out of shape back then.
Bill Clinton obviously never cared about Monica Lewinsky, she was just a foolish young girl he could do stuff with.
That top article was funny as hell, and right on the money.
Well, we were all young once. I could crack jokes about what the term “Lewinsky” means these days, but I look back at 22 and the dumb stuff I did at that age. No married women, but a couple of bad decisions were made to say the least.
Is there any evidence she was in love? Keep in mind she was blabbing to Linda Tripp and I don’t recall her saying she was in love. More worried Clinton might have her killed, and there was lots of talk about Clinton doing something wrong and Monica being encouraged to keep evidence to protect herself.
OMG...that is SO Funny! LOL!
Fist, I don't see how anyone can let themselves look like that and second - how could you go out in public looking like that???
Really...I always thought she was sort of pretty back then. I suppose if she hadn’t been so chubby she’d have gone and gotten someone for herself instead of Hillary’s husband.
Janet Reno? Donna Shalala?
Having said that, my life from 19-30 was fraught with bad decisions. Some I shudder to recall, even at age 45. Then again, no one has asked me to write about them for 12 million, either..
By the grace of God go I. I can’t imagine what pain she is in. She was a very young girl who was taken advantage by the most powerful man in the world at the time. She loved him and thought he loved her. I pray that she can get some closure and find a husband who will love her. I think conservatives need to stop making fun of her and start to see her with eyes of a father whose daughter has been taken advantage of. No more jokes at her expense. This is her only life and we should not add to her pain and grief. Bill Clinton destroyed her life and he should be the one to bear responsibility
LOL! Perfect match!
So when do I get my $12mil for being a young, dumb, slut? Hmmm? I’m still waiting!!
Yep. A common noun. As in gave or got.
The word even made it into some late night police reports, if memory serves.
Well, what did she think would happen? As my husband would say “think about where her mouth has been!”
I’m sure with $12 million she’ll find some fool.
If you are a man, would you be seen with a woman who is not only world famous for fellating the president but whose name has become an euphemism for doing so?
But as compensation, she is the eponym of fellatio.
When you go back to 1998 and read some of the stories about her parents and the public comments they were making at the time, you realize that this country is filled with people who are 'effed up because they were raised as kids by 'effed-up adults ... and in 1998 a lot of these kids became young adults, and in 2012 these adults are 14 years older. I wouldn't spend a nickel to read a book about any of them.
By at least some definitions, both participants in an adulterous act are guilty of adultery. She knew he was married. Even as a horny young man, I avoided married women, and I did have opportunities.
I don't know what the rules are, but if it's possible, she should also waive attorney client privilege and instruct her lawyers to tell all. It's history now. I've always regretted that the principals in the celebrated controversies so often take their secrets to the grave. You hear me, G. Gordon Libby?
