LOS ANGELES, Feb. 13 (UPI) -- Hollywood actor Eric Dane is said to be "mortified" about a magazine cover story that erroneously claims he is fighting cancer.
Dane, 35, is one of the stars of "Grey's Anatomy" and previously acted on "Charmed."
He recently had some malignant cells on his lip frozen off with liquid nitrogen at a doctor's office, Usmagazine.com said Wednesday.
However, OK! magazine apparently exaggerated the incident in its Feb. 18 issue, stating he was in a "fight against cancer."
"Eric Dane does not have cancer," the actor's representative told Us Weekly. "He spoke with OK! to clear up some inaccuracies they were planning to run. His story certainly does not compare with those actually suffering from the disease."
A source also told Us Weekly Dane was "mortified" by the report.
"Never in a million years would he have expected they would exploit his story," the insider said. "He's considering legal action."
