You’d think that being Hollywood royalty would protect you from culinary efforts of dubious origin. Not so – Drew Barrymore, Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant may all have Hepatitis A picked up at a post-premiere party.

The trio were attending a US post-premiere party for Barrymore and Grant’s new film ‘Music and Lyrics’ on February 7 which was catered for by Wolfgang Puck’s company. It emerged later that one of the cooks had Hepatitis A.

A letter was sent to guests warning them of a “public health issue” and saying they may be at risk of infection if they had eaten uncooked food. Click for full details
Guests at risk were advised to get a gamma globulin shot within 14 days of exposure – before February 21.

How helpful, considering the letter was sent out on March 1.

Sponsors of the party claim the Los Angeles County department of public health did not inform them of the problem until February 28th.

The letter read: “The Department of Health has reassured the hosts on how very low the risk of infection is.”

Hosts of the ‘Music and Lyrics’ party insist – and pray – no one who attended contracted Hepatitis A.

Beyoncé Knowles was one of the guests at risk of infection, but was given the all clear.

Poor Puck had already been involved in another Hepatitis scare – this time at a Sports Illustrated bash. It is unclear what his masterplan is, possible theories include sabotaging sub-par romantic comedies or perhaps straight-forward revenge on the beautiful people.
