Did oral sex bring about Michael Douglas' cancer diagnosis? Not exactlyWhen the world first learned that Michael Douglas was battling cancer in 2010, all that was disclosed was that the actor had a tumor in his throat and that he was optimistic about beating the disease. Now, three years later and after declaring victory over his diagnosis, the 68-year-old star has opened up on what could have potentially caused the harrowing experience - one of them being oral sex.
In an interview with the U.K.'s Guardian, Douglas was asked whether he regretted smoking and drinking in the past, two activities that were presumed to be contributing factors to his illness. Douglas responded with a straightforward "no," because "this particular cancer is caused by HPV [human papillomavirus], which actually comes about from cunnilingus." The "Behind the Candelabra" star, who didn't want "to get too specific," added that he 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." However, a rep for Douglas told CNN that the actor never specifically said that HPV caused his cancer diagnosis in 2010 - only that it was one of many possible causes. For more on the link between HPV and oral cancers, check out CNN Health: "Yes, oral sex can lead to cancer."

FACT: ALL IMMORAL PEOPLE WHO SLEEP WITH MULTIPLE PARTNERS KNOW MR.AND MRS.STD
GOOD TO REMEMBER WHATEVER YOU DO HAS RESULTS...SOME GOOD AND SOME NOT
SO GOOD.....
MAKE A LIST FOR CEO

I was reading all those comments and I was laughing so much , that my husband had to come see if I had somebody tickling me,,,,,Thank everybody....you made my day.
–
its way too deep
thanks
I like my kisses down low, makes me arch my back-Kelly Rowland

Nom nom nom nom!

Ah, you never quite get over the smell...
michael douglas(photo above) – admitted this morning its was not true about the fact he received cancer from the xual act–his father is one of the greatest actors of all time...why do that.
Thanks for indicating that Michael Douglas is the guy in the photo above. Like you, we are all so f*king stupid we might not have made the connection.
So what is his point? That he has been a good lover or a whiner, or simply, he is out of his mind with such xyz@# answer?
–
Now he is saying he didnt say that!!
Liar
No wonder his wife is in and out of clinics for mental problems being married to a disgusting pig.
You've never had someone go down on you, have you anna? Tsk, tsk, tsk...
.
Blasphemer!
Maybe CZJ needs to go see a gynecologist and have that lethal critter neutralized.
Cheap publicity.
So his 3pack per day cigarette habit, for multiple decades...had absolutely nothing to do with this cancer? Right, got it. Blame it on the muffdiving.
I don't always get cancer, but when I do its from eating pu*s*sy.
Stay juicy, my friends.
Hahahahah!!! Too funny. Good one!
and allow her to get away with hit.
Diet going very wrong, I guess...
I'm really glad he's doing so well, but, lmao at some of the comments!
Glad to see he's licked his afllllliction.
Members of the LGBT and prominent Dems blamed Michael Douglas's statement on the continued GOP-led war on women.
Bill Clinton's cigar club enthusiasts lauded MD's candor!
you know as well as I the war on women comes from the left.
just as one example, the women in obama's white house are paid much less than men
Wow!
If that was the case I would be dead now!
I think I was a lesbian in a past life!!!
I'll just say I'd love to honey, but I don't want to get cancer. hehehehe
You know Michael Douglas is a lot older than Catherine Zeta Jones. If Michael passes away Catherine will have trouble dating after this story.
I'll take my chances on that mean pearl holder of hers.
I know many of you think this is a funny topic, but you need to get educated. There is an epidemic in head and neck cancers caused by HPV; they know if the cancer is caused by the virus by the DNA signature. People are dying from this; especially young men are vulnerable because unlike women; they have no medical signs. Pediatricians are now recommending to vaccinate BOYS with the HPV vaccines like Gardasil because this is so worrying. Parents, pay attention to this. If you don't believe me, visit the Oral Cancer Foundation website.
Thank you for your comment to these immature idiots making these comments. My husband is celebrating his 7th year in remission from stage 4 tonsil cancer HPV virus related. Google his oncologist Dr. Maura Gillison and read her studies. You might not be laughing so much when you see that this cancer is 3 times higher in men than women.
In his golden years Kirk Douglas must be filled with pride by the activities of both his grandson and his son.
It'll make your head fall off
Is getting cancer better than going blind?
Close your eyes and get back to us.
I wonder: The cancer is in his throat. Is he SURE he got it from a woman?
So ERIN BURNETT thinks how Michael Douglas describes his getting cancer is "VILE."
Sounds like Erin needs to find a new playmate that knows how to pleasure her. Even with her box, t's not "vile" – it's called pleasure.
Come on Erin – there's more to life then being a princess news reader and cashing 6-figure paychecks.
Either that, or her boyfriend isn't doing it right.
You got a point. After all, the name of her show is OUT FRONT.
LOL, I saw Erin B. reporting on this too. However, I got a different read on her reaction. I think she gets it and likes it ALOT! Her noticeable on-camera distress was caused by thinking about how much she would miss it if her partner decided to hold off on going down as a result of Mike Douglas revelation. Ha, Ha! I also support a lot of givers and receivers may be feeling the same concern.
Well we all now know how Douglas landed Zeta. No need for the blue pill. Good on ya Doug....a little jealous too
Maybe he did use the blue pill – but just in a different location.
Sounds like he was bragging to me. "I'm the biggest stud in the history of the USA, and unlike you other celebrities, I can prove it....ate so much p*ssy, I got cancer. Top that Beatty, Jagger, Chamberlin!"
One guy asked him if it tasted like pumpkin pie.
He said, "Are you crazy? I've NEVER eaten pumpkin pie!"
Chamberlin?? Not Richard Chamberlin, cause he eats a whole nuther crotch. Dude's a flamer.
Dude, seriously - the only p*ssy you can connect Chamberlin to would be the one(s) he and his boyfriend(s) adopted over the years.
He's 68? Looks 88. Whoever it was, she would be better off with a giraffe.
From here on, he will be known as Michael "Qweef Breath" Douglas.
TMI TMI TMI TMI!
Not enough information. I can't find it on Youtube.
Michael Douglas should be ashamed of himself for making this statement. Did he consider his wife's feelings. Apparently it shows the caliber of women he was with. SHAME ON YOU MICHAEL.....for not taking responsible for your actions
I hope he took pictures.
um isnt him admitting his diagnosis and possible cause, taking responsibility for his actions?
I think he knows how to make his wife feel better.
He was implicitly referring to his EX-Wife not his CURRENT wife and his EX-Wife is quite P-O'd about his comment but she has been well paid for her anguish and pain. LOL
CNN your are disgusting and need a new leader. Time for someone out there to start a good all news station because CNN would be easy to run out of business.
Disgusting how? If they're so easy to run out of business, why hasn't anyone done that? Why are your panties in such a bunch?
Sounds like Bob has never had his p*ssy eaten out...
If he did that to a woman that spoke Spanish, would that make HIM bilingual?
He's a cunning linguist and a master debater.
I guess Michael Douglas was a member of the "Oral" majority.
It's for sure he's gotten more squirrel than Davy Crockett and Daniel Boone put together!
So nice to see so many disgusting miscreants trying to pass as amusing with their vile, vulgar disrespect to women.
It is so often embarrassing to be a male. To the women on the site, I apologize for all of the "animals" and their oral diarrhea. Please forgive.
Oral diarrhea! Hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!
If you eat sh!t, then puke: oral diarrhea.
I don't think your man is doing it right.
You're upset. I get it. Michael Douglas has something that will calm you right down.
Yeah, oral diarrhea is a problem. That's what the tic tacs are for.
Please take this article down before my wife sees it. Thanks.
Too late. I already emailed it to her. You should have told me sooner.
Jesus!
Can't you guys figure out when someone is pulling your leg a bit?
It's not the leg they're pulling on.
You're all crazy ? He didn't get it from his wife. It takes years for the virus to show up. It happened when he was young and free messing around.
Wasn't he on that TV show "The Streets of San Francisco"? Maybe it happened then.
He was married for years.
Wow. I never would have guessed that Catherine Z. was that toxic.
The word "toxic" has a negative connotation.
How about using the word, "zesty"?
maybe salty? or sour as in putrid dried urine?
Pu**sy juice or anal? Which will it be my Zeta?
Mmmm...good eatin.'
I'll have what he's having.
KFP – Finger Lickin' Good.
This needs to be brought up more often. HPV is incredibly common...it's estimated by the CDC that nearly everyone will have it, has it, or had it at some point. Some strains cause cancer in whatever holes are infected with the virus. And a condom doesn't always protect you (because it's skin-to-skin, not just what the condom covers). Farrah Fawcett's cancer was caused by HPV, as well. HPV is causing a rise in oral cancers, that's why dentists now check your tongue and glands at your regular visit. Everyone should get vaccinated and women should get regular paps. Also, there's no test for men for HPV (they know Douglas' tumor was caused by HPV because they tested it for the virus)...of they never get warts, they may not know they have it.
What's worse than a wife finding lipstick on her husband's collar? Smelling FDS on his breath.
FDS stands for Fish Do Stink
CNN should watch carefully with these stories lest it be counted as irrelevant.
An unforseen and unfortunate hazard to chin riding.

Kanye Should have cancer of the face if he's been eating at the Y. I wouldn't touch that trash(KIM THE PORN STAR ) without wearing a hazmat suit.....That PIG did porn with a bunch of them bros....
you would still do kim. just double wrap your jimmy and away you go.
Yeah, she has to keep ice in her drawers just to keep the crabs fresh.
All he has to do is use a roll of Saran Wrap.
Kanye goes downtown so much, that's why he needs auto tune. He can't sing because he has tongue damage.
You got that right Jason. I wouldn't touch Kim K. with a ten foot stick while wearing a full-body condom! Yuck! Nassssstttttyyy!
Michael Douglas has always been a player...a regular ho. His former wife caught him with her best friend. Young people really need to get immunized.
Not saying much for his wife...I would expect this from KIM CRAPDASHIAN.....I pity the fools who have had the nerve to go there....GROSS>>>>>>>
If it wasn't meant to be eaten, it wouldn't be shaped like a taco.
LMAO, Thanks for the laugh
Good one. Papa always said: "If it smells like fish, eat it."
I still dont beleive that he had stage 4 cancer. It was all a publicity stunt. There is no coming back from cancer in that stage.
He is disgusting bringing this up – who wants to know his dirtly little secrets. I feel sorry for his wife – she deserves better.
If only you knew what you were talking about. MANY people have come back from stage 4 cancer, and many of those were a result of the research and practices of Dr. Stan Burzynski.

My friend was diagnosed stage 4 cancer and after suregery and chemo was fine for 6 years, unfortunately it is back now and inoperable, but he's only 3 years out, so declaring he "beat " cancer is a bit premature, I hope he does, my brother had this same cancer told was stage 3, six years later told he was "cancer free" 3 months later dead from spreading everywhere. yes many are alive 3 years later from stage 4, depends on a lot of things, mostly how agressive the tumor was to start with, and how well the immune sytem responds to it, a tumor classifed as 'poorly differentiated" is MUCH more likely to have a bad outcome as a tumor identified as 'well differentiated"
I dunno, maybe you have a point.
I mean, if I told women I got cancer from eating fur pies, they'd be lining up around the block.
My husband is celebrating his 7th year of remission from stage 4 tonsil cancer HPV related. You do survive but you have to go to hell and back with daily chemo and radiation for 6 weeks. You end up with no saliva glands, no taste and some people lose parts of their tongues, jaws, etc. Head and neck cancer is not for the faint of heart. But thanks to a wonderful medical team at Johns Hopkins Hospital, he survived!!!! No publicity stunt, either. Get educated!
that eating at the Y could be hazardous to your health? Doesn't the health dept. inspect these "establishments?"
I never thought of them as "establishments".
On behalf of all the sn@tch snackers out there, we appreciate your candor and the public service announcement.
In cases like this, should he have run a background check, or a foreground check?
If Catherine Zeta Jones gave me throat cancer, I'd just have to find some other parts for her to give me cancer on.
What makes you so sure she's the one who gave it to him?
Obviously a tongue-in-cheek comment.
Or is that chick instead of cheek?
Uh, I hope you're not talking about THAT cheek!
Seems like anything you eat, drink, handle or look at too long causes cancer.
That explains it. Maybe he looked at it too long.
Some things are just worth dying–and killing–for.
Fish tacos may cause cancer!
Every time I go into a restaurant, and I see Fish Tacos on the menu, I think of all you crazy guys on this blog. I hope you are proud of yourselves. lol... I'm glad Michael is still doing good, regardless of what caused his cancer.
But did they try this on laboratory animals?
I'm sure Catherine was unhappy about hearing where this cancer came from. I hope she doesn't get any of the virus in her stuff.
or...that's where he got it from
Any chance she could have gotten it back from him? Maybe he forgot to brush his teeth one night...
No wonder this news wiped her elite clients .. Now she has few NewMan to after..
What? Your comment made zero sense. English is not your mother tongue, right?
Lucky he didn't, "...get too specific."
Fortunately, he "...didn't get too specific."
(I'm going home now to take a bath in liquid penicillin.)
In other news, Catherine Jones, Douglas's wife, wasn't immediately available for comment. (But we sure hope her schedule frees up in the near future.)
I'm in trouble!
If your tongue starts to glow in the dark, call 911 right away.
If I was married to Catherine Zeta-Jones, I would be a cunning linguist every second of the day too.
Yeah, I'd be speaking in tongues.
Yeah, but you'd be thalkig lige thith.
What a disgusting comment to make...
↓
Do you have any clue about female anatomy? If you think it bleeds for two weeks, the ladies are lucky that you don't attempt to pleasure them. I am guessing you are more into the gents anyway. To each their own.
You're as disgusting as 'joshmo.'
How insightful. Such subtle humor.
NAAAHHH! I'm just joking. Traci is many things. A man. A looser. A bore.
But not insightful. And not funny.
Pliny-troll
Once again you crawl out from under your rock to impersonate me. What a sad, BORING looser you are.
You are both LOSERS for your constant use of the word LOOSER in place of the correct word LOSER. Only a f-cking moron doesn't know the difference, idiot(s).
Agreed. I read it 16 times, all the while remembering who he's married to. I'm so disgusted, I'm going to re-read it several more times, just to be sure I fully understand the topic.
Absolutely no ill-effects from partaking in the old "tossed salad" from time to time.
correction, lickity spit
thanks
Yeah, I 'd be in that lineup
You have to protect yourself, though. You'll need a roll of saran wrap and a box of tic tacs.
Put it on Youtube – it'll go viral (get it?)
