Near the point of tangent bifurcation, the scaling properties of the laminar length of type-I intermittency are investigated in the presence of noise. Based on analytic and numerical studies, we show that the scaling relation of the laminar length is dramatically deformed from $\frac{ 1}{ \sqrt{ \epsilon}}$ for $\epsilon >0$ to $\exp\{ \frac{ 1}{ D}|\epsilon|^{ 3/2}\}$ for $\epsilon<0$ as $\epsilon$ passes the bifurcation point $(\epsilon=0)$. The results explain why two coupled R\"ossler oscillators exhibit deformation of the scaling relation of the synchronous length in the nearly synchronous regime.
