 Al Gore's surprising split from wife Tipper was prompted by an affair he was having with Larry David's environmental activist wife, Star magazine claims. 
 
 
 
 The tabloid weekly says the environment-friendly ex-veep and the comedian's ex have been involved for two years. 
 
 
 
 Gore friends called the report utter nonsense. 
 
 
 
 Laurie David is an outspoken Hollywood environmentalist and a trustee of the Natural Resources Defense Council who makes frequent appearances at political events. 
 
 
 
 She co-produced "An Inconvenient Truth," the Oscar-winning documentary about Gore and his campaign against global warming. 
 
 
 
 "Al and Laurie went from friends to lovers," Star quotes an unnamed insider as saying. "It couldn't be avoided." 
 
 
 
 A close friend of both Al and Tipper Gore's laughed at the report and said there was nothing to it. "It's complete crap," he said. 
 
 
 
 A Gore spokeswoman said Gore would not comment on the stream of stories about his separation. He normally refuses to comment on personal matters. 
 
 
 
 David divorced her husband, the "Seinfeld" creator and star of "Curb Your Enthusiasm," in 2007 amid reports that she was cheating with the married caretaker of their Martha's Vineyard summer home. 
 
 
 
 The Gores' stunning split after 40 years of marriage has prompted wildly varying explanations in the gossip sheets: Globe magazine said Al was gay, and the National Enquirer said Tipper was crazy. 
 
 
 
 The Enquirer, which blew the lid off John Edwards stepping out while he was running for president, blamed Tipper's unfounded suspicions of affairs. 
 
 
 
 "Tipper's jealousy was putting stress on their marriage," the National Enquirer quotes an unnamed insider as saying. 
 
 
 
 "Al finally told her their relationship was over because he couldn't stand her jealous rages anymore." 
 
 
 
 The tabloid weekly said there was no proof the former veep and green idol ever cheated on Tipper, but she suspected him constantly. 
 
 
 
 "I think she's always believed there was something going on between Al and many of the women in his life," the unnamed insider is quoted as saying. 
 
 
 
 Globe went the other way, saying Tipper left Al because he was having "a gay affair." 
 
 
 
 Al, 62, and Tipper, 61, were high school sweethearts. Their split, announced two weeks ago , shocked many Gore associates who had always thought the marriage one of the most solid in politics. ||||| RSS print email June 15, 2010 2:35 PM

 According to the National Enquirer, in 2006: 
 
 No criminal charges were brought against Gore, but the Portland police prepared a document marked "Confidential Special Report" - which records the explosive allegations of "unwanted sexual contact" by Al Gore "at a local upscale hotel." 
 
 The Oregonian reports that the Multnomah County District Attorney's office has confirmed that "a woman who alleged unwanted sexual contact by Al Gore reported it to police in 2006," . The initial report was filed December 16, 2006, "several weeks" after the alleged incident occurred in a fancy downtown Portland hotel. 
 
 But when police tried to follow up with the unidentified woman, she cancelled meetings three times before her attorney told them the case would be handled civilly (i.e. for money) and the investigation was closed in early 2007. The police briefly reopened the case in 2009, according to The Oregonian, though it's unclear what, if anything, they found. (The police report is sadly sparse on details. Update: Actually, a 2009 report is very, very detailed. See below.) 
 
 Maybe this masseuse just trying to get a piece of Al Gore's sweet global warming cash. (Her reluctance to meet with police is odd.) But, still: Crazy! Al Gore!? This hints that Al and Tipper's split was not the amiable drifting apart they've sold it as, and it adds to speculation that Al Gore had an affair with Larry David's ex-wife, Inconvenient Truth producer Laurie David. 
 
 Were Bill Clinton's trysts obscuring the sexual whirlwind hidden in Al Gore—strong enough to power an entire farm's worth of wind turbines? Only time, and a Tiger Woods-style parade of mistresses, will tell. 
 
 Update: 
 
 So, we just finished reading the police interview with the masseuse from 2009 and, Wow. That is 45 pages of (alleged) scary, sex-crazed Al Gore. Here's a very, very brief outline of what she alleges occurred in a hotel room in downtown Portland on October 24, 2006: 
 
 The woman, a Licensed Massage Therapist, showed up and was told her client was Al Gore. She was happy! But when Al Gore answered the door, he gave her a hug that was just a tad too long. Then, he asked for massages in weird places: Like, the inside of his thigh. Kind of creepy, but still within the purview of legitimate massage. But things went downhill during the massage, as Al Gore growled at her to "go lower": 
 
 I decided to clarify things... I said well, why don't you show me... he grabbed my right hand hard, shoved it down under the sheet to his pubic area, my fingers brushing against his penis and firmly planted my hand on his pubic crest region and said to me, "There!!" in a very sharp, loud, angry-sounding tone. 
 
 She refused, and he growled some more. When that didn't work, he started pleading with her pathetically "for release of his second chakra there. 'There's so much tension being held…'" Still, she refused! Then told him it was time to go. But while she was packing up he grabbed her in "an inescapable embrace" and "caressed my back and buttocks and breasts." She distracted him with a box of chocolates (really!) which backfired when he tried to get her to eat them out of his hand. 
 
 Al Gore then forced her to take a sip of minibar Grand Marnier. Then Al Gore "forced an open mouth kiss on me," and when she protested he "laughed, clearly enjoying himself at the expense of my discomfort." This groping and flailing and horrible seduction goes on for a while, and such things allegedly happened as: 
 
 He had been pressing his body up against mine, holding me tightly, holding me tightly and I was not certain if his robe was open or closed... It seemed partway open like the robes are small. He's rotund, you know? And I did not want to look down to see. I could feel what seemed to be an erection from him. 
 
 and: 
 
 he turned to me and he immediately flipped me flat on my back and threw his whole body face down over atop me, pinning me down and outweighing me by quite a bit. Get off me, you big lummox! I loudly protested to him and I struggled with my whole body to shove him as hard as I could to roll him off me... 
 
 and: 
 
 He insisted I look at his ipod… the song was 'Dear Mr. President' by Pink 
 
 Eventually she makes her way to the door. There, Al Gore made his final gambit: 
 
 He pleaded, grabbed me, engulfed me in embrace, tongue kissed me, massaged me, groped my breasts and painfully squeezed my nipples through my clothing, pressed his pelvis against mine, rubbed my buttocks with his hands and fingers and rubbed himself against my crotch… 
 
 She finally escapes, having somehow avoided being raped by Al Gore. But at home she examines her black slacks: 
 
 I took 'em off and I said what's those stains on the front of those? And I wondered if it was soap or bodily fluids from Gore pushing up against me repeatedly?

 Here's the 2006 police report (Click to enlarge):
– Star magazine weighs in today with a juicy rumor grabbing all kinds of attention: Al Gore broke up with Tipper because he was having an affair with Larry David's ex-wife. The tabloid says Al has been having a fling with Laurie David—an environmental activist who co-produced An Inconvenient Truth—for two years. It quotes an "insider" as saying, “Al and Laurie went from friends to lovers. It couldn’t be avoided." No word from the Gores, but a family friend tells the Daily News the story is "complete crap." The Davids have been divorced since 2007.
