PICTURES! Those naked Adrienne Bailon leaked photos stemmed from a publicity stunt, says Bailon’s publicist now. Adrienne Bailon’s leaked nude pictures of Cheetah Girls star last Sunday now are getting a whole different explanation today.

Here’s the latest.

As LALATE first broke to you Sunday, reports had claimed that Bailon’s laptop was allegedly stolen from JFK Airport NYC in October of this year. LALATE had reminded you that Kim Kardashian, sister to Bailon’s boyfriend Rob Kardashian, had claimed her laptop stolen from that airport in November of 2007.

Well, today, Fox reports the following Bailon mess is coming out:

“Bailon’s (now ex) Hollywood publicist/pal Jonathon Jaxson (who only started working with the songstress “as a friend” two weeks ago to help spice up her image) admitted to Tarts that after the laptop was stolen he and the 25-year-old decided to “juice up” the story by saying that “nude pictures could have possibly been stolen.” “

In fact the pictures weren’t from a laptop.

“Oddly enough, Jaxson said that the steamy snaps were actually stolen from the starlet’s Sidekick phone (not her laptop) so it’s under suspicious circumstances as to how the pics have been made public.”

So where did the photos come from?

Jaxson tells Fox:

“Adrienne and her boyfriend (Kim Kardashian’s younger brother Robert) swear they didn’t leak them, but it wouldn’t surprise me if Adrienne did. It’s either her or someone very close to her. Things are pretty ugly, what should have been an image boost has really turned around and bitten her.”

In comparison, US Magazine is reporting it as follows:

” “Bailon and JJ’s Dirt Web site founder Jonathan Jaxson leaked the story that racy shots were stolen from her laptop “purely to get attention,” a source tells Usmagazine.com. In an interview with a local CBS affiliate, Jaxson confirmed they made up the scandal “to juice” things up.” “
