Lewinskymania has spread across the United States and Europe, as new revelations emerged of another affair by the President's former mistress, during which she became pregnant and had an abortion.
Television ratings soared as Monica Lewinsky gave interviews on British and American television - and her book Monica's Story hit the stores, racing to the Amazon.com Web site's No 1 slot. Some 70 million people watched her in the US, making it the most popular news broadcast of all time.
During the interviews, and in the Andrew Morton book, Ms Lewinsky revealed how, after she had been banished to the Pentagon and was being ignored by the President, she became pregnant during a fling with a colleague.
She also told how she and her family were driven to thoughts of suicide during the probe by Kenneth Starr, by whom she felt 'raped' and 'terrorised'. One of his investigators was a 'revolting specimen of humanity', she said.
During the two-hour ABC broadcast, a generally upbeat, sometimes defiant Ms Lewinsky, 25, told Barbara Walters she now thought President Bill Clinton was 'a much bigger liar than I ever thought'. 'Sometimes I have warm feelings, sometimes I'm proud of him still, and sometimes I hate his guts. And he makes me sick,' she said.
In the book, she keeps her most bitter feelings for Linda Tripp, the Pentagon colleague who recorded their phone calls and gave the tapes to Mr Starr.
