Puck's catering Hepatitis A scare
By Stone Martindale Feb 28, 2007, 1:26 GMT
TMZ has reported that an urgent warning has been issued by the Los Angeles Health Department, notifying the celebrities that attended the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue party on Valentine's Day that they may have been exposed to acute hepatitis A.
The list of "possibly exposed" guests are cover girl Beyonce Knowles, Leonardo DiCaprio's Israeli girlfriend, Bar Rafaeli, and as TMZ quipped, dozens of hot bikini girls.
The Los Angeles County Department of Public Health confirms that an employee of Wolfgang Puck Catering was recently diagnosed with the disease, and has strongly urged anyone who attended the SI party, or any of the 13 other events catered by Puck between Feb. 1- 20, to get an immune globulin shot by tomorrow to prevent any Hep A illness.
TMZ contacted Puck's catering company, and they refused to reveal to TMZ which other events Puck catered, nor would they reveal how many other people may have been exposed to the illness. They did say, however, that no one who attended Sunday's Governor's Ball at the Academy Awards is at risk.
Beyonce's camp tells TMZ that they "were looking into it."
