Gina Gershon is lying in the same bed as Bill Clinton. But not in the way you think!

In fact, if you were thinking that way, then you'll understand the whole reason Gershon is complaining about Todd Purdum's Vanity Fair article in the same way Clinton was: Because she claims the insinutations made about her – that she enjoyed the romantic company of the ex-president – aren't true. So she's got her mouth-off-y lawyers at Lavely & Singer demanding VF issue a retraction for a story … that just keeps on giving.

Here's what VF said about Gershon (in the only instance in the 10,000-word article that she's mentioned):

Over the last few years, aides have winced at repeated tabloid reports about Clinton’s episodic friendship and occasional dinners out with Belinda Stronach, a twice-divorced billionaire auto-parts heiress and member of the Canadian Parliament 20 years his junior, or at more recent high-end Hollywood dinner-party gossip that Clinton has been seen visiting with the actress Gina Gershon in California. There has been talk of a female friend in Chappaqua, a woman in a bar at a meeting of the Aspen Institute, and a public sighting of Clinton, Bing, and a ravishing entourage in a New York elevator that, a former Clinton aide told me, led a business leader who saw them to say: I don’t know what the guy was doing, but it was so clear that it was just no good.

From that, Gershon's attorneys say the the article "outrageously insinuates that Ms. Gershon has had an inappropriate sexual relationship with President Clinton. This is absolutely false." [TMZ] Which, uh, is totally true.

Funny, because wasn't it Purdum who was just on CNN insisting the article didn't "insinuate" anything? Why yes, yes it ridiculously was.
