Oscar-winning actress Cloris Leachman's representative has dismissed reports the star was hospitalised with pneumonia last week (ends14Nov08) - insisting she is "totally fine".
The 82-year-old, who saw a recent resurgence in her popularity after appearing on the current season of U.S. reality show Dancing with the Stars, was reportedly struck down by the nasty illness and was under the care of medics.
But Leachman's publicists insists her condition isn't serious - and that the star is at home resting in preparation to film footage for Dancing with the Stars.
A spokesperson for The Last Picture Show actress says, "(Cloris) had a slight cough and wasn't feeling totally herself, so she went and sought medical attention from her doctor. She's totally fine. She was at a family event on Saturday.
"She is currently at her home, and is expected to tape something for Dancing with the Stars later this week."
