LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- Actress Zsa Zsa Gabor's condition was upgraded from serious to fair Tuesday as she recovered from a car accident last week, according to a spokeswoman at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

The spokeswoman gave no details on Gabor's injuries or when she may be released.

The 85-year-old Gabor was hurt Wednesday when a car in which she riding with her hairdresser slammed into a light pole on Sunset Boulevard.

Sgt. Bruce Thomas of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department said Gabor was not wearing a seat belt, but her daughter, Constance Francesca Hilton, disputed that.

The glamorous Hungarian-born actress, the middle of the celebrated Gabor sisters, is most famous for her eight marriages. Among her husbands were hotel millionaire Conrad Hilton and Oscar-winning actor George Sanders.

Her more prominent films include John Huston's 1952 Toulouse-Lautrec biopic, "Moulin Rouge"; "The Story of Three Loves," 1953; "The Girl in the Kremlin," 1957; and Orson Welles' classic "Touch of Evil," 1958.

In 1989, Gabor was sentenced to 72 hours in jail for slapping a Beverly Hills police officer after a traffic stop. She also had to perform community service at a battered women's shelter.

The other Gabor sisters were Magda, the oldest, who died in 1997 five days shy of 83, and Eva, the youngest, who died in 1995 at 76.

Magda, an occasional stage actress, also was married to George Sanders at one time.

Eva is probably best remembered for her role as a socialite turned farmer's wife on the 1960s' TV sitcom "Green Acres."
