MICHAEL Douglas, self-declared former sex addict, star of Fatal Attraction and husband to Catherine Zeta Jones says he ‘caught’ throat cancer from oral sex.

In reply to the question as to whether his cancer was brought on by drinking and smoking, he replied:

“No. Because without wanting to get too specific, this particular cancer is caused by HPV [human papillomavirus], which actually comes about from cunnilingus… I did worry if the stress caused by my son’s incarceration didn’t help trigger it. But yeah, it’s a sexually transmitted disease that causes cancer. And if you have it, cunnilingus is also the best cure for it.”

Michael Douglas is 68. He should have waited until he was 69 to share.

PS – He did not get it from Romancing the Stone (geddit?!)
