The publicist of Lindsay Lohan denies that she was sent to hospital this past weekend following a motorbike accident.

The Mean Girls star is believed to have been hit by a bike during a night out on Saturday, and treated at the Beth Israel Medical Center in Manhattan.

But now her aide claims the news report is all wrong.

She tells news show Entertainment Tonight: "I spoke to Lindsay and she said this didn't happen."

But the actress' father Michael insists the incident, which happened outside a club on 32nd Street did happen - and she was treated in hospital.

He tells the New York Post: "She's not hurt. That's all I really care about."
