Usher Facing New $10 Million Lawsuit For Allegedly Exposing Another Woman To Herpes…This Year



It’s been a week of woes for Usher.
Prior to now, the singer had been relatively scandal free. A feat in itself given the length of his 20 year career.
However, that all changed when reports hit the wire that he paid $1.1 million to a woman in 2012 after allegedly infecting her with herpes.
Now, another woman has come forward with similar claims about the married star.
Full story below…

Via TMZ:
According to the suit, filed by a Jane Doe, she and Usher hooked up in Atlanta on April 16 at her home. She says there was some heavy petting, some kissing, and she performed oral sex on him. They eventually had intercourse, and she says he wore a condom.
However, in the docs, she says they had sex again 12 days later — this time in a New Orleans hotel room — and they did not use a condom.
Cut to this month … when Jane Doe says she read news reports about Usher admitting in docs, connected to an earlier legal case, that he has Herpes Simplex 2.
In this new suit, the woman does not say she’s infected. She is concerned because she was “exposed” and says she wouldn’t have had sex with Usher if he’d disclosed he has the virus.
She’s suing “U.R. IV” — Usher Raymond IV — for negligence, battery and emotional distress … and is seeking at least $10 million in damages.
What a mucky, muddy mess.
To make matters worse, Ush is married to Grace Miguel and has been since 2015. As such, if there’s any validity to the claims, it means there’s infidelity involved too. Assuming the couple are still together.
In any case…
At this junction, he quite literally has to say something and soon. Because silence could well be the undoing of his career more broadly (i.e. beyond the “currentness” of now).
