London, Dec 17 (Inditop.com) Pop star Jessica Simpson is planning legal action against an American magazine for romantically linking her to embattled golfer Tiger Woods.

A string of alleged mistresses have come forward with stories of secret relationships with the golfer, married to Elin Nordegren. And Simpson, who was once snapped with Woods at a golf tournament, was linked to the sports star by America’s Star magazine. The publication reported the pair had swapped contact details, reports contactmusic.com.

“Tiger liked what he saw and let her know it,” a source had told the magazine.

Simpson is furious with the insinuations and her representative has branded claims the two were more than passing acquaintances as “ridiculous”. Simpson’s legal team is already moving to shoot down the magazine’s allegations.

“Literally the only thing that’s true in the story is the fact that they met. It was a quick meeting and they posed for a photo together – that was it. Jessica’s lawyer is sending them (Star magazine) a letter,” the singer-actress’ publicist told E! News.
