Another woman has come forward and filed a lawsuit against R&B singer, Usher, for allegedly exposing her to herpes without her knowledge.
Here’s What Happened:
According to TMZ, an unidentified woman is claiming that she had sex with Usher earlier this year. The woman decided to come forth after news spread that Usher allegedly gave another woman herpes. The woman is suing Usher for millions of dollars because she says she had no idea that he was allegedly exposing her to herpes.
The woman claims that on April 16th of this year, she engaged in sexual intercourse with Usher in Atlanta at her home. According to the lawsuit, the woman alleges that she and Usher engaged in heavy petting, some kissing, and she performed oral sex on him. They eventually had intercourse, and she says he wore a condom. Keep in mind that Usher is married to Grace Miguel. If these claims are true, this would mean that Usher broke his marital vows again.
The fling they had on April 16th wasn’t just a one night occurrence, according to the woman who is labeled as “Jane Doe” in the court docs. In her court fling, the woman claims they had sex again 12 days later in a New Orleans hotel room, however, they did not use a condom. It appears that the woman decided to come forward after hearing the latest news about Mr. “Ursher baby.” When the unidentified woman read news reports and court documents that strongly suggest that Usher has Herpes Simplex 2, she became worried about her own health. Interestingly enough, the woman does not say she’s infected. However, she is concerned because she was “exposed” and says she wouldn’t have had sex with Usher if she was knowledgeable about his sexual history.
TMZ reported that the woman is suing Usher Raymond for negligence, battery, emotional distress and is seeking at least $10 million in damages.
Earlier in the week, news surfaced that Usher supposedly paid out $1.1 million to settle a lawsuit with a stylist who claimed he’d infected her with herpes. Legal documents posted by Radar Online– appearing to be dated back in late 2012- allege that the 38 year old “Confessions” singer, whose real name is Usher Raymond IV, was diagnosed with herpes in 2009 or 2010, according to the court papers, which were filed at the Superior Court in Los Angeles.
Ex-Wife Speaks Out
Tameka Foster, former wife of Usher, commented on the drama that her former husband is facing and she wants the world to know that she is doing well and is 100% healthy (in other words, she doesn’t have herpes). Tameka, who was married to the “Confessions” singer from 2007 to 2009 and has two sons with him, took to Instagram to say the following:
‘Do not come on my page discussing rumors or adult people that have NOTHING to do with me. I have been divorced 8 years… Some issues are not my business… ex husbands, ex friends, b—h-maids, snakes, h–s, characters, etc. Not my circus, not my clowns,” Foster wrote on Instagram alongside a photo calling her “unf–kwithable. I’m good and my health (Everywhere is great), well my right knee hurts and I need reading glasses but otherwise I’m awesome and enjoying the sun. Miss me with other grown folks crazy gossip.. Not my business at all. I’m living my bestest life. Always. Miss me with the bulls–t. Thank you.’
So far, Usher has not made a comment. Again, we do not know for fact that the herpes claims are true because neither he, nor the first young lady have confirmed this. However, based on the legal docs that have surfaced, they appear to be highly likely. Regardless of if they are true or not, this is just another reminder of how incredibly important it is for everyone to use protection. Hopefully, something good can come out of these Usher allegations- maybe this will indirectly encourage his young fans to practice safe sex.
