Michael Douglas has slammed press reports that he has an addiction to sex.
The actor claims the stories were merely an exaggeration on his visit to rehab 16 years ago, which was for alcoholism.
He said: "Times have changed and sex sells. Around 1990 I voluntarily went into rehab because I was drinking too much and some smartass editor said, 'Oh another boring story about an actor going to rehab. Let's give him sex addiction.' Then it became 'Self-confessed sex addict!' And I don't remember ever mentioning it!"
