USHER RIP 2
Woman’s claim: Singer didn’t tell of herpes
THE PRICE of unprotected sex is going up for R&B hitmaker Usher.
The “U Got It Bad” singer, after a $1.1 million settlement with a woman who claimed he infected her with herpes, now faces a $10 million lawsuit from a second woman making a similar allegation.
According to TMZ.com, the woman first hooked up with the married Usher in her Atlanta home back on April 16, with the singer donning a condom before they had intercourse.
The woman also acknowledged performing oral sex on Usher Raymond IV during their steamy session.
The couple reconnected 12 days later in New Orleans, where they had sex in a hotel room, according to her account.
The suit alleges the eight-time Grammy-winning singer never donned protection — and never warned her that he was carrying the herpes virus, TMZ reported.
While the woman never alleges in the lawsuit that she’s infected, the Jane Doe insists she would never have slept with Usher if she knew about his herpes.
Her lawsuit charges that she was entirely clueless about Usher’s sexually-transmitted disease until she recently read about his settlement with the other woman.
She’s seeking damages for negligence, battery and emotional distress, TMZ reported.
RadarOnline broke the news Wednesday of the December 2012 settlement where Usher paid off a celebrity stylist who accused him of infecting her.
That suit alleged that Usher was diagnosed in 2009 or 2010, around the time he split with his first wife Tameka Foster.
Celebrity stylist Foster swore off the drama when fans started commenting on the scandal online last week.
“Do not come on my page discussing rumors or adult people that have NOTHING to do with me” she wrote on Instagram. “I have been divorced 8 years... Some issues are not my business... Not my circus, not my clowns.”
Court documents claimed Usher’s original accuser was afflicted with fevers and vaginal sores.
He was accused of “consciously and purposefully” hiding the infection from his lover.
The “Confessions” singer is now married to Grace Miguel, a former executive chef on “The Cosby Show.”
The couple wed seven years ago — two years before the first herpes case settlement.
Usher has not commented on the allegations.
