Usher herpes accuser in $20m lawsuit reveals her identity

One of the women who recently came forward to accuse singer Usher Raymond of giving her herpes has revealed her identity in a new court filing.

Laura Helm of Fulton County, Georgia states in court papers filed on Tuesday that she is the 'Jane Doe' who alleged that Usher infected her with a sexually transmitted disease after the pair engaged in sexual relations on two separate occasions.

She also details these alleged encounters in her updated court filing, stating that Usher took showers before and after their hook-ups and that the singer would rush from the room towards the end so that she was never able to see him ejaculated


Helm was initially asking for $10million in her lawsuit but upped that to $20million after she tested positive for the Herpes Simplex 2 virus this past July.Helm claims that she and Usher were friends for years and that their relationship only became sexual in April 2017 

'Immediately after engaging in sexual and intimate relations with [Helm] on April 28, 2017, [Usher] leapt from the bed, grabbed his penis, ran to the bathroom,and began to shower again,' reads the complaint.

'[Helm], a bit confused by [Usher's] behavior, left [Usher's] hotel room while [Usher] was showering.'

Helm alleges that a few days later 'an unusual bump appeared on the inside of [her] cheek.'

A few days after that, 'an unusual bump the size of a green pea that was painful to the press touch appeared on [Helm's] vagina' according to the filing. 

In July, Helm learned that she had been infected with Herpes Simplex 2, and as a result claims to have suffered 'extreme and debilitating mental, emotional and physical distress and anguish, humiliation and embarrassment.'
