Shakira
& Alejandro Sanz Deny Sex Tape Prank 4/2/08
A sex video April Fool's Day (01Apr08) prank involving pop
collaborators Shakira and Alejandro Sanz has been exposed as a hoax by the
singers' publicists.
Bogus Internet reports suggested the stars and Shakira's boyfriend,
Antonio de la Rua, were caught on film enjoying a threesome, but
representatives for Sanz and Shakira insist there is no sex tape.
PeopleEnEspanol.com claims the rumor got started when Argentine DJ
Javier Ceriani commented on a little Internet report on his Zona Cero
radio show.
He said, "It's been said... there is a private video recorded on a
yacht, one that could implicate Alejandro Sanz, Shakira and Antonio de la
Rua."
He suggested the tape was in the hands of the courts.
In a joint statement, the singers' representatives say, "This is a
false rumor. This is totally absurd any way you look at it. There is no
possibility that such a video exists. It is a baseless and malicious rumor."
Sanz and Shakira teamed up on the song La Tortura, and appeared
together in the tune's steamy video.
