After a second woman came forward and filed a lawsuit against Usher, with the claim that he had exposed her to herpes without disclosing his infected status, many began to suspect that one accuser coming out within 48 hours of another might be the tip of the iceberg. Afterall, while the R&B star is indeed married, he has an admitted history of infidelity, thus the potential for groupies to come out of the woodwork with accounts of unprotected sex, whether valid or not, could threaten to sink his reputation. And as it turns out, those prospects, according to celebrity attorney Lisa Bloom, have already begun to manifest, with more than one alleged victim having approached her since the original story broke.
"How much-unprotected sex did Usher have after his herpes diagnosis? Women are reaching out to me. How dare he endanger women's health?" Bloom tweeted on Saturday, July 22, before laying out the law for the father of two. "It's also a violation of criminal law in many states to have unprotected sex without disclosure of your STD. As it should be," she continued on to say in a second tweet.
On Friday it was learned that a $10 million lawsuit had been filed against Usher by a woman who claims to have had sex with him twice in April. The second time they shared intercourse, she says in the suit, she consented to do so without protection. However, she says she was never informed that in doing so she'd be at a risk to contract the STD. Earlier in the week ex-girlfriend Maya Fox-Davis had filed suit for $1.1 million in damages for her having actually contracted the virus.
