HATCHER SETTLES SKIN CARE SUIT

Actress TERI HATCHER has settled her lawsuit with a cosmetics company after Hydroderm bosses retracted their claim she promoted a rival brand.
Hydroderm heads filed a $2.8 million (GBP1.9million) suit accusing the Desperate Housewives star of not upholding an endorsement deal she made with them in 2005, by praising the effects of a rival, City Cosmetics.
Hatcher fought the suit, claiming she had done "absolutely nothing wrong".
The actress was awarded an undisclosed financial settlement on 12 December (08), with Hydroderm bosses retracting their earlier accusations.
A spokesperson for the company says: "Hydroderm LLC has specifically retracted all accusations made against Teri Hatcher including that she endorsed any competing products.
"Teri Hatcher is a woman of the highest integrity. We sincerely apologise for the adverse publicity resulting from our lawsuit."
