Which celebrity sells more magazine: Angelina Jolie or Elin Nordegren?

Angelina could now take a breather as her selling prowress is still unmatched.

However, Tiger Wood's ex-wife did gave Jolie a good fight with 2 million copies of People magazine featuring Elin Nordegren on the cover.

"Early numbers show that [Elin Nordegren] sold around 2 million copies, way up from its average of 1.4 million," a souce quoted by Pop Eater website said,  "yet not quite the 2.5 million Angelina sold." 

But unlike in the case of Angelina, People Magazine bagged a profitable feature without shelling out a single dime for Tiger's estranged spouse. Angelina Jolie asked for $12 million dollars for the pictures of her twins, Knox and Viv.

A source close to the Sweden-born Nordegren said Elin did not grant the interview with money in her mind.

"It was about telling her story once and for all. She will be happy that so many people bought the issue and finally read the truth," the source said."But now she hopes they all go away and leave her and her family alone. The last thing in the world Elin wanted to be was a celebrity."

In press conference last week, Elin's former husband Tiger Woods  stressed that the estranged couple is trying to get their kids situated to the new living conditions.
