Star sniffers and paparazzi are spreading an ugly rumor that Utah's acclaimed Cirque Lodge celeb-detox spa in Sundance is using a flesh-eating virus as part of its therapy. Says one photo parasite at Splash News:

Can someone please explain to me why it looks like someone tried to sand blast the freckles off of Lindsay Lohan’s face? Is there a flesh eating virus attacking rehabbed starlets? If so, I need to call up the Cirque Lodge and warn Eva Mendes.

Whoa, boys. Before you hotline the CDC, call in any Utahn for a second opinion. A glance at Lohan's face would diagnose her condition as high-altitude "Raccoon Face" from too much skiing and too little sunscreen. She, Mendes and Kirsten Dunst soon will have that beef-jerky complexion common to Utah powder junkies.
