LOS ANGELES, Nov. 18 (UPI) -- Cloris Leachman is at home recovering from a bad cold, says a publicist for the U.S. actress and recent "Dancing with the Stars" castoff.

A representative for the 82-year-old entertainer told People.com: "She went to seek some medical attention. She's totally fine. She was at a family event on Saturday. She's at home now."

The publicist added that Leachman plans to later this week tape a surprise segment for the dance competition series, which wraps its seventh season next Tuesday.

The Oscar-winning actress is to begin work on Quentin Tarantino's World War II epic, "Inglourious Basterds," next month.
