Alanna clarified she got a bit carried away on the show because she’s just so in love with Pioneertown -- it’s where she had her first date with her husband, and they even tied the knot at the historic Soundstage.
She told us they wanted to become part of the community ... so they bought a home and some properties there, which is how the mix-up came about.
The apology came after Pioneertown officials called for it ... blasting her "baseless claims" on the Pioneertown Gazette’s IG. They said her falsehoods were a slap in the face to the town’s 78-year history and its generations of residents.
They made it clear Pioneertown is a mile-square census-designated community with over 400 residents, and is privately owned by more than 100 independent artists.
As for Alanna, they said she only has a tiny, non-controlling stake in an entity that owns 6 of the 35 parcels on Mane Street -- less than 1% of Pioneertown’s total 640 acres. So, claiming she owns the whole town is just plain wrong.
