Doherty denies brawling with Garth

Los Angeles -- Shannen Doherty says a widely circulated story that she and her "Beverly Hills, 90210" co-star Jennie Garth once engaged in fisticuffs is untrue.

Doherty and Garth are both set to reprise their roles on "90210," CW Television's new spin-off of their iconic 1990s teen soap.

Tori Spelling, their co-star on the original show, wrote in her autobiography that Doherty and Garth didn't get along and once got into a fist fight.
But Doherty denied the story to Us Weekly.

"We never did," Doherty said. "I think I would remember Jennie's fist connecting with a part of my body or a part of my face. ... It just goes to show you how people will lie."
