Farrah Fawcett In Legal Mess With National Enquirer

Farrah Fawcett, currently battling cancer, now has another fight brewin. The U.S. General Attorney and the FBI are in the process of determining whether or not the National Enquirer paid a hospital worker to leak confidential information about her condition, according to Entertainment Weekly.

A story in the L.A. Times reported Lawanda Jackson, an administrative specialist, was the UCLA Medical Center employee who allegedly accessed Fawcett's records. When the hospital tried to remove her in July 2007, she quit her job.

American Media Inc., the parent company of the National Enquirer, continues to write stories about Fawcett, despite the severity of the pending issue.

Fans of the former Charlie's Angels star showed their support through Twitter.
