World Wide Web- Hell hath no fury like an intern scorned.

Monica Lewinsky broke her silence and bared her claws yesterday, branding ex-lover Bill Clinton a creep who “destroyed” her and made her feel like “an insignificant piece of dirt.”

As the former President stumped for his best-selling memoir, Lewinsky fumed that he belittled their romance and never apologized for smearing her reputation during the Sexgate scandal.

“He says he was proud of the way that he defended the presidency – at my expense. In the process, he destroyed me,” she said.

“I was a young girl and to hear him saying some of the things he was saying today – it’s a shame.”

Lewinsky said her life would have turned out much differently if she’d never met Clinton.

She imagined that she would be a forensic psychologist, a wife and a mother.

“I have spent the last several years trying so hard to move on. I’ve lost a lot of time.”

Lewinsky, 30, refused to comment to the U.S. media when Clinton’s autobiography, “My Life,” was published to enormous fanfare this week.

Instead, she gave a paid interview to London’s Daily Mail and Britain’s ITV News, which aired the half-hour segment last night.

In her most candid remarks since the scandal that rocked the country, Lewinsky portrayed Clinton as a money-grubbing cad incapable of telling the truth.

“It’s offensive,” she said of his chapters about their fling. “He could easily have chosen to take a few less million dollars and just not write about it.”

At various points in the two interviews she referred to him as “the creep,” a “liar,” a “revisionist of history” and “a wax figure – without humanity.”

She seemed unable to reconcile the Bill Clinton of today with the “tender” man who called her “dear” and “baby” and gave her gifts like Walt Whitman’s “Leaves of Grass.”

“This is someone I used to be in love with?” she asked incredulously.

While she kept her mouth shut when Sen. Hillary Clinton published her memoir last year, Lewinsky said she’s speaking out now to correct the account in “My Life.”

She’s also angry about the “60 Minutes” interview in which Clinton said he cheated on his wife with Lewinsky “for the worst possible reason – just because I could.”

“I was really upset when I first heard it,” she said.

“He talked about it as though I had laid it all out there for the taking. I was the buffet, and he just couldn’t resist the dessert,” she fumed.

“That’s not how it was,” she said. “This was a mutual relationship, mutual on all levels, right from the way it started and all the way through.”

What’s more, she claims she can prove it with tapes of messages Clinton left on her telephone answering machine and gifts he gave her, all of which she kept.

“If I was just something he used ‘because he could,’ why call me?” she said. “Why fake all the emotions and the looks and the tenderness?”

“He touched me first,” she added.

Adding to the insult is Clinton’s refusal to apologize for the way he and his protectors maligned her at the height of the scandal.

“His strategy was to debase my character,” she said.

Clinton doesn’t seem to appreciate the fact that she refused to wear a wire and get him on tape, even though she was threatened with prison, she said.

“How would he feel if [Chelsea] was picked up in a shopping mall as I was by the FBI, taken to a hotel room, told she couldn’t call an attorney and threatened with jail for 27 years?

“How would he feel if she was trashed by the person she had the relationship with?”

Now that she and Clinton are back on the front pages, she has just one question for him: “Can’t you just step up to the plate and correct the things you did that were wrong?”

Clinton’s spokeswoman did not return calls.

Pain – in her own words

On Clinton’s comments about their affair: “He’s acting as though it was nothing more than a bug bite that got infected.”

On how he treated her: “He says he was proud of the way that he defended the presidency – at my expense. In the process, he destroyed me.”

On his chapter about the affair: “He could easily have chosen to take a few less million dollars and just not write about it.”

On her life: “When I look at photographs of me before all this happened, I can see a happiness there that has gone. He could have made it easier on me, but at least I have the advantage of truth.”
