“Selling Sunset” newbie Alanna Gold has apologized to the tiny California community of Pioneertown … after falsely claiming on the Netflix show’s newest season she owned the place … TMZ has learned.
In a note apologizing to the residents of Pioneertown, seen by TMZ, Alanna says she’s super sorry for the mix-up, admitting she definitely doesn’t own Pioneertown … and definitely didn’t mean any harm by making the claim.

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.
