An Atlanta woman who sued Usher for allegedly giving her herpes, is now suing insurance companies, claiming they outed her medical records to a blog, according to gossip tabloid TMZ.com.
Singer Laura Michelle Helm, 32, is suing 3 insurance companies, claiming an application she filed for insurance ended up on a blog post which revealed her “private sensitive health information” to a blog.
TMZ did not identify the blog.
Last year, Helm dismissed the lawsuit against Usher. Now she’s trying to get money by any means necessary.
According to the lawsuit, Laura filed her application with an insurance broker — representing 3 companies — on July 31, 2017.
In the suit, Laura says the broker took screenshots of her application and gave them to the blog. She’s suing the 3 companies — United Healthcare, Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Louisiana and Golden Rule Insurance Company — as well as the blog.
Laura also claims the blog defamed her by saying she committed insurance fraud.
Helm initially sued Usher anonymously in July. The blog posts with her medical info were published in August — and she only revealed her name in docs subsequently filed in September.
