Usher’s alleged herpes scandal continues. The influential R&B singer is being sued for $10 million by a woman who says he exposed her to the sexually-transmitted disease, according to TMZ.
Identified only as Jane Doe, the woman claims that she had two sexual encounters with Usher. On April 16, she says that she performed oral sex on him before they had intercourse with the use of a condom. Twelve days later, she says they had intercourse once again, but this time without a condom.
This past week, the woman read a new report by Radar Online, which claims that Usher paid $1.1 million to settle a 2012 lawsuit, after allegedly spreading herpes to an unnamed ex. In legal documents, the Confessions crooner reportedly admitted to having Herpes Simplex 2.
As reported, Usher was reportedly exposed to herpes in 2009 or 2010. He allegedly had “green discharge” coming from his penis at one time, but was later labeled an “asymptomatic carrier” of the sexually-transmitted disease.
Now, Jane Doe is suing Usher for negligence, battery, and emotional distress for allegedly exposing her to the STD without disclosing that he has the virus. The woman, who does not claim she’s infected, is asking for $10 million in damages.
