Report: Jensen Huang Hired PR Firm Known for Handling High-Profile Sex Scandals a Year Ago
Wired reported that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang hired Heller Inc., a crisis communications firm known for advising clients through personal scandals and sexual misconduct allegations, at least a year before he publicly acknowledged an extramarital affair with a former Megaspeed executive suspected of ties to Chinese intelligence.
Heller Inc. founder Risa Heller has represented prominent figures including former congressman Anthony Weiner, celebrity chef Mario Batali, and former New Yorker writer Jeffrey Toobin, according to a 2023 New York Magazine profile.
Wired also reported that Nvidia’s communications team was instructed to copy Heller Inc. on press inquiries about Huang shortly after an October 2025 New York Times report. That report examined whether Nvidia was helping Chinese companies evade U.S. chip export restrictions. It described Singapore-based data center company Megaspeed, which had acquired nearly $2 billion in Nvidia chips, and its CEO Alice Huang standing beside Jensen Huang at a gathering of Nvidia customers in Taipei.
Heller Inc. and Nvidia did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
On Sunday, Huang acknowledged an affair with a former Megaspeed executive in a statement published by Nvidia, but did not name Alice Huang. Separately, Nvidia’s board announced an independent investigation, citing reports that Huang “has been the target of a foreign intelligence effort.”
