Oscar-winning actress Reese Witherspoon is suing America's Star magazine, claiming the tabloid invaded her privacy by publishing a "fictional" story about the actress' pregnancy.

In the lawsuit, filed yesterday in Los Angeles County Superior Court, the Legally Blonde star insists Star published the false story that she was pregnant "in a callous effort to boost the tabloid's sagging sales."

The story claimed the actress, who is married to Ryan Phillippe, was pregnant with her third child. The couple already have two children, Ava, six and Deacon, two. Papers filed in the lawsuit claim, "Contrary to the fabricated Cover Story, the true facts are that (Reese) is not pregnant, does not have a 'baby bump' and has not otherwise gained weight such that she has had to resort to wearing 'empire-waist dresses,' 'baggy clothing,' or an 'old-fashioned 1920s bathing suit'." The lawsuit claims the magazine portrayed her in a false light and is an invasion of her privacy, according to website TMZ.com. No damages were specified.
