See. I was right all these years. Maureen Dowd is a carcinogen. She needs to be stamped out for the health of the nation...

Michael Douglas – the star of Basic Instinct and Fatal Attraction – has revealed that his throat cancer was apparently caused by performing oral sex.

In a surprisingly frank interview with the Guardian, the actor, now winning plaudits in the Liberace biopic Behind the Candelabra, explained the background to a condition that was thought to be nearly fatal when diagnosed three years ago. Asked whether he now regretted his years of smoking and drinking, usually thought to be the cause of the disease, Douglas replied: "No. Because without wanting to get too specific, this particular cancer is caused by HPV [human papillomavirus], which actually comes about from cunnilingus."

Douglas, the husband of Catherine Zeta Jones, continued: "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."

The actor, now 68, was diagnosed with cancer in August 2010, following many months of oral discomfort. But a series of specialists missed the tumour and instead prescribed antibiotics. Douglas then went to see a friend's doctor in Montreal who looked inside his mouth using a tongue depressor.

"I will always remember the look on his face," Douglas has previously said. "He said: 'We need a biopsy.' There was a walnut-size tumour at the base of my tongue that no other doctor had seen."

Shortly afterwards he was diagnosed with stage four cancer, which is often terminal, and embarked on an intensive eight-week course of chemotherapy and radiation. He refused to use a feeding tube, despite his palate being burnt on account of the treatment, and so lost 20kg (45lb) on a liquids-only diet. "That's a rough ride. That can really take it out of you," he told the Guardian. "Plus the amount of chemo I was getting, it zaps all the good stuff too. It made me very weak."

The treatment worked and Douglas is now more than two years clear of cancer. He has check-ups every six months, he said, "and with this kind of cancer, 95% of the time it doesn't come back".

The cause of Douglas's cancer had long been assumed to be related to his tobacco habit, coupled with enthusiastic boozing. In 1992, he was hospitalised for an addiction which some at the time claimed to be sex. Douglas himself denied this and said he was in rehab for alcohol abuse. He has also spoken of recreational drug use.

".........But Kumar (the doctor) expressed scepticism that Douglas's cancer was caused solely by HPV, and surprise at Douglas's assertion that cunnilingus could also help cure the condition. "Maybe he thinks that more exposure to the virus will boost his immune system. But medically, that just doesn't make sense."

I still stand by my assertion that MoDo should be quarantined or put down for the safety of the country. Just look what she did to this man. She is a disease vector.

if that causes throat cancer commonly, then I am doomed. and half of the people in the US would be too. has to be rare.

Michael Douglas is merely playing a Doctor. Actors assume roles of characters. How macho of him to assert that he got CA from being this mega lady pleaser.

Wow Man!!! And then what does he say cures it? More of the same of course!

Head up the ______ actor!!! That and some heavy chemotherapy you douchebag!!! I'm so sick of actors telling us bull____!!!!

I have to ask:

Why would he want to go down on someone who did not wash their Hoo-Haa?

Cunnilingus is an oral sex act performed on a female.

Kaposy's sarcoma comes from smoking a pole.

im sure there are some positive benefits to this form of love making somewhere... but a cure for cancer isnt one of them.

This discussion reminds me of the Sopranos episode where it comes out that Uncle Jun is into cunnilingus and Tony rides the hell out of him over it...

Honestly, whats the big deal ? No need for teenage humor. It was always a normal part of a normal sex life for us (on hold due to health issues). Michael Douglas is a loon
