Usher, who is known for his chart-topping hit tracks, became the talk of town after he sent a fan back in the audience.

While the 47-year-old was about to get intimate with the lady, she smiled at him which caused him to step back.

Although several netizens called him respectful for not going further, a wave of speculation sparked online about a past allegation.

One of the X users noted on the platform: “Usher has herpes. Don’t forget that,” while another netizen was of the opinion: “She don’t want Herpes lol and whatever else you got.”

Meanwhile, a fan shared their view on the situation: “This is really embarrassing moment for her.”

In 2017, the Yeah! crooner was slammed with lawsuits by two women and a man, claiming that the musician did not warn them about reportedly having the sexually transmitted disease.

According to their attorney, he involved in a sexual activity with each of the alleged victims after 2012.

When did Usher get Herpes?

Lisa Bloom brought forward a leaked document which was said to be revealing details about him being diagnosed with Herpes in 2009-2010.

The plaintiffs filed a case for sexual battery, emotional distress due to exposure and others.

In 2019, it was reported that the Good Good crooner and the other party settled the situation out of court.
