Site Creates Needless Drama Over A Ringless Emily Blunt

Truth rating: 1
(X17Online.com)

“Newlywed Emily Blunt Has Already Removed Her Ring!” screams a headline on X17Online.

“Emily Blunt has only been married to John Krasinski for about a month and a half and she’s already removed her ring!” continues the site. So, is there trouble already in the marriage?

Robert Pattinson Paparazzi Showdown Sensationalized

(GettyImages.com)

X17Online.com is completely sensationalizing a confrontation between Robert Pattinson and paparazzi who hounded him as he drove this weekend. He supposedly “yells” at a photog after committing a “hit & run.” He got “pissy,” claims the site.

It’s a total misrepresentation.

Lindsay Lohan Tells Gossip Cop Latest Model Makeout is Bogus

Truth rating: 0

From X17, the same site that claimed Lindsay Lohan was punched by Samantha Ronson (um, nope), hooked up with John Mayer (wrong again!), and was “all over” model Petey Wright (whoops!), comes word that she is having “more than just a fling” with a different model, Sam Webb.

X17 Fails Again With Fabricated Lindsay Lohan Story

Truth rating: 0
(X17Online.com)

It’s beginning to seem like X17 has a simple formula:

When things get slow, make up something about Lindsay Lohan.

Now, according to the site’s “source,” when Lohan showed up while Samantha Ronson was spinning records at the nightclub Bardot, the concerned DJ “enlisted the help of two security guards” to keep Lohan at bay. Like so much of what X17 has claimed about Lohan (and Ronson), it never happened.

Tiger Woods Fleeing by Yacht Rumors Are Adrift

Truth rating: 1

Gossip Cop has to “dock” a lot out outlets for this one. Weeks of scandal allegedly pushed Tiger Woods out to sea, with reports everywhere announcing that the golf great had set sail from Florida aboard his yacht.

Gossip Cop Busts X17 for Bad Michael Lohan Police Work

Truth rating: 0

It’s easy to score an “exclusive” when it dances around the facts. X17Online.com proves it (and not for the first time) with a post claiming, “Michael Lohan NOT Arrested… Phony Online Report!” That’s interesting. Because everyone else – including the police in Suffolk Couty, New York – seems to think Lindsay Lohan’s troublemaking father WAS arrested for criminal contempt of court, after allegedly violating an order of protection filed for his ex-girlfriend, Erin Muller.

Site Fakes Near Collision of Brangelina & Jennifer Aniston

Truth rating: 0

When it comes to placing people near Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, X17Online just can’t get it right. The same site that insisted George Clooney was moving next to Brangelina in the south of France (he wasn’t), now makes an even bigger goof – with a correspondent at the UNICEF Snowflake Ball claiming that Pitt ex Jennifer Aniston arrived just minutes before Pitt and Jolie, and that the trio were “all in the same room right now, as I type this!”
