Mosshart Says She Didn't Fight White

Alison Mosshart has shot down reports she got in a fight with her Dead Weather bandmate Jack White at a New York bar after a major bender.

Mosshart, who's also a member of The Kills, issued a statement refuting the claims made in an article in U.K. tabloid The Sun that they came to blows.

"I don't usually bother responding to ridiculous fabricated tabloid rumours, but this one is particularly grotesque," Mosshart said. "The stories circulating from a UK tabloid of a 'fist fight,' or Jack punching me, or the two of us 'being at each others throats' are untrue.

"I'm just wrapping up a tour with The Kills and then I'll be back with The Dead Weather for the release of the album and a tour. It's a really great group of people to work with and I can't wait for everyone to hear the album."

That album, Horehound, was supposed to come out on June 9 on White's Third Man Records label. It's been pushed back until July 14.
