A few weeks ago the British paper The Express reported that Russell Crowe had been tossed from a pub outside London called Brickmakers for causing a ruckus after being told he wouldn’t be served drinks after closing time. At the time the paper said, “Eventually he left . . . but not before smashing a plate.” The manager was quoted as adding that “He’s been asked not to return.”
As we pointed out then, and will repeat again now – Crowe was NEVER at that bar. Well, The Express was apprised of their mistake, which Gossip Cop corrected, and now the tab is eating Crowe. In an apology, the paper wrote, “We have been informed that Mr Crowe has never been to the Brickmakers pub and therefore the incident never took place. We apologise to Mr Crowe for our error.”
Gossip Cop is already on to the next case.

Busting bad dish! This site is the best.
You guys are great!!! Thank you for what you do!!!!
The Daily Express is the prime example of trashy journalism of the worst kind! This media must’ve been threatened with gargantuan amount of lawsuit by Crowe’s legal team. I’m willing to bet that the apology didn’t come out of remorse and good intention. Geez! That’s just SO LOW!! They’re simply just a bunch COWARDS for issuing the apology by the time Crowe has returned home to Oz. Sweet! They must be scared shitless. And where the hell did they get the source of the lies? Wait a minute, they have to “protect” their valuable sources, right? Christ!! Apology’s not accepted, buster! Major damage has been done on Crowe and his family.
Hope you guys would keep doing what you do, busting garbage tabloids that spread nothing but hatred and lies. Public waste, all of them! Great job, Gossip Cop.
