Newly-engaged actress Jaime Pressly is laughing off reports she was caught urinating in public, insisting photos leaked online actually show her carrying out a party dare.

Pressly appeared to be crouching down and relieving herself outside Los Angeles hang-out The Abbey in the photos that appeared online on Monday - but she was actually carrying out an engagement bash prank.

In a post on her Twitter.com blog, the Joe Dirt star reveals, "That is me doing dare #8 at my bridal shower... Notice my hand in the back... it's pouring a bottle."
