Woman Files Lawsuit Against MAC After Contracting Herpes From Used Rihanna Lipstick


A Harlem woman claims in a lawsuit that she got herpes at a Rihanna concert in Brooklyn from lipstick the singer endorsed. Starkeema Greenidge, 28, alleges she contracted the virus when a representative of MAC Cosmetics applied a used tube of RiRi Woo to her smackers.
“I wasn’t able to work for two weeks. It cost me a lot of money,” Greenidge, a waitress, told the Daily News on Wednesday.
She said she slapped MAC with the suit in Manhattan Supreme Court in hopes of forcing the company to be more sanitary in the future. Greenidge also said the company should train its employees to use disposable tubes or swabs to apply the lipstick.

  1. Right, except: "Right now genital herpes and oral herpes are only treatable, not curable."

    Taken from about.com article, "Is There A Cure For Herpes?" @ http://std.about.com/od/herpes/f/microrna.htm

    .. so she'd been incredibly stupid, or naive, to bring this onto herself; surely she could've picked something else, or, perhaps, she was magically cured of herpes?..:)

    True story.
