According to 93.9 WKYS, Starkeema Greenidge is reportedly
suing MAC cosmetics. Greenidge alleged
that she contracted herpes from a Rihanna-endorsed lipstick sample applied to
her lips by MAC Cosmetics representative at a popup shore outside the Barclays,
while attending the singer’s concert at the Barclays Center on May 7, 2013. Greenidge
filed the suit in Manhattan Supreme Court on June 3, 2013. In her
court documents, Greenidge stated that the MAC Cosmetics representative “applying
the lipstick told her to press her lips together and spread the lipstick
around. (MAC) didn’t use a fresh or new lipstick tube, but rather one that had been
used for other patrons.”
