Katie Holmes Settles Lawsuit with Star Magazine


LOS ANGELES (AP) - Katie Holmes has settled her lawsuit with the publishers of Star magazine over a cover story that insinuated she was a drug addict.

The magazine published an apology to the actress on its cover and inside, saying it did not intend to suggest that Ms. Holmes was a drug addict or was undergoing treatment for drug addiction.

It apologized for any misperception and said it would be making a substantial donation to charity for any harm that we may have caused.

Holmes sued American Media Inc. last month for a January magazine cover with a headline that read Katie DRUG SHOCKER!

Financial terms of the settlement were not disclosed. Holmes had been seeking more than $50 million in damages.
