Gershon told "Live with Regis and Kelly" that she's met Clinton "three times at, you know, events at the White House, or, you know, different places."

She says stories like these should never make it into print. She says "lies are the new facts.

Gershon has played roles in Cocktail (1988), Showgirls (1995) and Bound (1996). She has also appeared on TV shows, such as "Ugly Betty," "Rescue Me" and "Curb Your Enthusiasm," among others.
