Rachel Uchitel canceled a press conference last week where she was scheduled to discuss her relationship with Tiger Woods, but instead chose to talk to [OK! Magazine](http://www.okmagazine.com/2009/12/rachel-uchitel-gives-ok-her-side-of-the-tiger-woods-story/).  
  
Unlike the approximately ten other women, Uchitel chooses to not talk about sex or Tiger in the interview at all, but instead talks about things like "Twilight" and the names of her pets. When asked about the situation between her and Tiger, she says, "In every story, you need a villain and a hero. I've been characterized as a villain. People have called me a home wrecker, gold digger, tramp, whore. I make mistakes, but I'm not those things. I have very good qualities. When you're judged by the nation, it's really difficult. It's horrible."
