What is the most false story you have heard about a celeb?
Or what are the mags/papers which are unreliable for showbiz news?

Bild had a story of Brad Pitt seeing another actress and a picture of them kissing, they failed to mention that they two were in a film and the picture was a scene in the film and from someone in the crowd watching the filming

If you discount the fake celebrity death and criminal accusation stories it's tough to beat the Starr hamster story. |

I don't know about most false, but the Jason Donovan being gay one was pretty bad. IIRC, there was literally no evidence, suggestion, implication or anything that the publication could cite as even the merest hint of justification to print it. It was purely maliciousness on their part.

I suppose you could count the long standing allegations against Obama, right from when he first took office, that he was either a Kenyan or Indonesian born Muslim. Probably the worst false story against a famous person in recent years. Many still believe it's true and Trump helped that the story.

I remember a story but not the celebs name, It went 'X in romp with prince harry' then when you read it all that is said was that person x would love to date him, Probably the most pathetic headline ever

The one that Marc Almond had to have his stomach pumped after swallowing a litre of baby gravy.
The story was later attributed to a number of other celebs. |

Many years ago one Sunday standing in a shop spotted the Sunday Sport.
The headline: Hitler was a woman.

Why do hamsters get such a bad rap from the press? They're small and cute and never did anyone any harm, yet they're subjected to vile smears such as these.

Lots of stuff involving Benedict Cumberbatch. Seems like a decent, down to earth guy but he has some seriously unbalanced people out there making up rubbish about him. I won't repeat the rumours as some of them are as poisonous as they are improbable.
I've seen them coming from two camps - the first is people who don't get why women fancy him and have developed an irrational hatred of him because of that, the second is obsessive fans who want to try to break up his marriage. Oh, and of course, pretty much anything about anyone that is published by the Mail/Sun/Fox News/etc.

I knew her (as well as his assorted aunts, uncles and cousins). His family (on his mother's side) are a whole lot less than impressed by The Donald.
