Don't believe the rumors: Patrick Swayze is "alive and well."
The Internet exploded this morning with rumors that the Dirty Dancing star had lost his public battle with pancreatic cancer, but the actor's rep has quickly corrected the record.
"This is to confirm that Patrick Swayze did not pass away this morning contrary to severely reckless reports stemming from a radio station in Jacksonville, Fla.," his publicist says in a statement to E! News.
"Patrick is alive, well and is enjoying his life and he continues to respond to treatment."
The 56-year-old Beast star has been dogged by rumors of failing health since he made public his diagnosis last year.
