Danger on the Set - Early Retirement for This Star

Not that this surprises me - I’m sure herpes is commonplace on these sets. Just the same, I keep constant track of herpes news and well, this is news people!

Belladonna, the unique and popular adult film performer, shocked fans last week when she blogged that she would no longer be performing. Her announcement came after she returned home from the set of a movie and discovered an enormous rash on her rumpuss. Her doctor told her it was probably a herpes outbreak, but he’d test it to be sure.

Belladonna knew she had herpes; she had contracted it five years ago while working in the industry. For her, it was the tipping point: Until now, she had only experienced outbreaks on her labia, but what if the herpes spread to her rear, her mouth, and other parts of her body?

On the one hand, she’s not alone: Some insiders think that nearly every performer has herpes.

Methinks the girl needs to educate herself on herpes. I’ve never heard of cases where it’s spread quite like she’s acting concerned about - but then again, stranger things have happened.

That’s the breaks of being THAT kind of star!

Jessica Alba could have caught herpes

I’d like to state for the record that I’m not posting the information as a slam to Ms. Alba. I’m merely stating what the rumor is and just how easy it is to encounter someone who has herpes. It’s not the end of the world by any means. I only wish we could find one very brave celebrity that would become the name and face behind our awareness efforts. Alba would be perfect. She’s the most beautiful woman alive and so sweet too! What more could we want?

Jessica Alba caught herpes from an ex-boyfriend, it has been claimed.

The ‘Fantastic Four’ star - recently voted FHM’s Sexiest Woman Alive 2007 - previously dated New York Yankees baseball star Derek Jeter and during their relationship she allegedly contracted the sexually transmitted disease.

A source who worked as Jessica’s assistant at the time claims they had to replenish her Valtrex prescription - a treatment for genital herpes - on a regular basis, according to website L.A. Rag Mag.

Jeter has also dated Mariah Carey, Vanessa Minnillo and most recently Justin Timberlake’s new girlfriend Jessica Biel.

Seventy percent of herpes spreading is said to happen when there is no sign of infection, according to a US STD awareness campaign.
