LANCE Armstrong wants to set the record straight. “Ashley Olsen and I are strictly friends,” the world-renowned athlete told us. “We have hung out amongst other friends, and she strikes me as a nice, smart lady.” Meanwhile, his ex, Sheryl Crow, is hitting back at a Life & Style report about her supposedly being upset over Armstrong’s relationship with Olsen. Crow writes on her blog: “Lance and I are friends. I have a lot of respect for him and what he does in the world of cancer. What he does in his personal life . . . is none of my business. Nor would I ever comment on it.”
