Gossip & Rumors
X17's Apology -- Greatest Understatement Ever

Posted Apr 6th 2008 11:09AM by TMZ Staff

Hmmm ... let's get this straight, you falsely accuse someone of having an affair and then apologize -- calling it an inconvenience. Oh, that little thing.

That's exactly what X17 just did to Tony Parker and Eva Longoria. Last December the photo agency posted the scandalicious claims of model Alexandra Paressant, who said she had an affair with Tony after he married his little Eva. Problem was -- Parker had never even met Paressant! We know -- details, details.

X17 posted an apology Friday, saying, in part, "X17online.com and X7 [sic], Inc. regret having been misled by Ms. Paressant and her representatives and apologize to Mr. Parker for any damage or inconvenience this may have caused him or his wife."

In a related story, X17 apologized to Sharon Tate's family on behalf of Charles Manson for that little thing a while back.

2. I still give the Parker marriage another year tops. Longoria is an attention whore and will not remain faithful.
It's only a matter of time before this " love story" ends.

3. I don't think an apology is enough! How quick they were to start rumors. Check the facts people.............think before opening your mouth!


Lies hurt people!

4. #2 Sabrina, I have the same thoughts. She seems like a media whore and is everywhere except with his man or at home.

8. So basically X17 did what TMZ does on a daily basis ( name calling and false accusation) but they had the balls to apologize. Good for them.

9. Brandy Navarre needs to get her act together over there at X17. She's worse than TMZ, but played the "innocent" role on a recent Dr. Phil. Give me a break!

10. And where is TMZ's apology for the Elliott Yamin remark last week that caused such an outrage that they had to remove it from their website?

11. I don't know about their marriage, but i agree that Longoria can't get enough of publicily. She just loves being right there in front of you to look at her.

12. Being just a TAD bit hypocritical here, aren't we, TMZ? Like YOU never said anything hurtful about anyone that wasn't true!

13. This is one of many things they've been caught doing. This is the same couple that tried to sue Perez Hilton, worked with Sam Lufti and Michael Lohan to make money off Britney and Lindsday, admitted during an intereview that they lie because they know it makes headlines and gets pageviews.

After the Parker scandal I refused to visit X-17 again. That story was fake and they knew it! Everytime you visit their site you are helping them make money. They reportedly live in a $5 million mansion in Beverly Hills. All their money was made off of ruining celebrities' lives.

Don't feed the sharks.

14. Why was the Sharon Tate murder even brought up? WTF does that have to do with anything? Your writers suck & have no heart?
