Kanye West facing sexual harassment lawsuit from former assistant

Kanye West, now known as Ye, is facing a lawsuit from his former assistant, Lauren Pisciotta. She claims he sexually harassed her and did not fulfill promises made to her. Pisciotta alleges that West sent her inappropriate messages and engaged in sexual acts while they were on the phone. She also states that she was fired in 2022 without receiving a promised promotion and severance package. Pisciotta, who had been working in the music industry for 15 years, collaborated with West on his Yeezy women's fashion line and contributed to his Donda album. She was hired as West's executive/personal assistant with a salary of $1 million per year, with the condition of being available at all times. Pisciotta also mentions that West had explicit demands and behaviors towards her, including sending lewd messages and masturbating in front of her. The lawsuit against West includes allegations of breach of contract, sexual harassment, and wrongful termination. Pisciotta claims that West's actions caused her emotional distress and that she is owed $3 million. Despite these accusations, West's representatives have not responded to the lawsuit. Before this lawsuit, West had been accused of inappropriate behavior by former employees of his Yeezy fashion line. The lawsuit sheds light on the alleged misconduct within West's business dealings and personal interactions.
