Susan Lucci Hits Back At Rumors She Wants Cloris Leachman Off ‘Dancing’

Susan Lucci has hit back at rumors that she is frustrated with Cloris Leachman’s continued presence on “Dancing With the Stars.”

A host of reports crept up on the Internet following Toni Braxton’s elimination from the celebrity dance competition earlier this week. And at least one report in the Chicago Sun Times suggested that Lucci, the star of ABC’s “All My Children,” was “fit to be tied” after Leachman was saved to dance for another week.

Lucci herself, however, she said the reports in the media claiming she is mad Cloris has been saved to salsa again, are absolutely false.

“It’s a ridiculous rumor,” Lucci said in a statement to Access Hollywood. “I adore Cloris. We are very supportive towards each other. I enjoy her and we have wonderful conversations all the time.”
