In new leaked emails released on June 19, it seems Sony executives were worried about the spread of herpes.

The document shows that some stars were asked to fill out questionnaires about their cold sores, Us Magazine reported.

In order to be insured for a film shoot, numerous actors working on projects for the studio were required to fill out and sign a "Cold Sore Questionnaire" and were asked to "describe cold sore locations."

The stars were then pressed to confess when the sore or sores first appeared, admit how long their cold sores generally last, reveal potential triggers, and disclose whether or not they had taken any medications to treat them.

 

One unidentified star refused to answer, while another Academy Award-winning actress supposedly revealed she had some sores.
