Melanie Griffith's Skin Cancer Scare

How sad!

Rumors were flying around about Melanie Griffith yesterday after a picture surfaced with Melanie sporting a black eye. The speculation forced her rep to come out and explain the horrible truth about Melanie’s current condition.

Apparently, the bruising around her eye is a result of a procedure she had done to remove cancer cells from her face! The news follows Melanie’s most recent stint in rehab, as she battles an addiction to pain meds.

What a year she’s had!

We hope she is feeling better and stays strong through this ordeal she is facing.
