Gina Gershon has hit out at a Vanity Fair journalist who claims in a new article that she had an affair with former U.S. president Bill Clinton.
Todd S.Purdum alludes to Clinton's infidelity following his recovery from heart surgery in 2004 in a controversial report in the July issue of the magazine - including insinuations that he made frequent stopovers in California to "visit" Gershon.
But the Face/Off star's spokesperson Mara Buxbaum has blasted the story and is demanding her client's name be removed from the piece.
She fumes: "Todd Purdum's insinuation is a lie and is irresponsible journalism. We are demanding a retraction."
Clinton has also responded to the allegations, branding Purdum "dishonest" and "slimy" for suggesting he has continued to cheat on his wife Senator Hillary Clinton, who is running for president in the November 2008 elections.
Clinton was famously caught having 'inappropriate relations' with White House intern Monica Lewinsky in 1998, while he was still in office.
