Kanye West sued by ex assistant for sexual harassment as model claims he sent inappropriate texts before firing her
KANYE West has been accused of sexual harassment by his former assistant.
Lauren Pisciotta filed a lawsuit claiming the rapper sent her a series of vulgar texts before firing her.
The pair met while the hitmaker was putting together his fashion line.
According to the outlet, Lauren collaborated with Kanye and worked on three songs on his album, Donda.
Her filing states that one year later, Kanye approached her asking her to be "God like" and delete her OnlyFans.
He reportedly promised to pay her $1million a year if she obliged.
The model stated in her filing that she did agree.
She claims, however, that a short time after the incident, Kanye started sending her inappropriate and vulgar texts about his sexual fantasies.
Lauren also alleges in her filing that the performer would perform sexual acts while on the phone with her.
She claims he would ask if she could hear what he was doing, or urge her to guess.
Additionally, Lauren claims that Kanye was fixated on the penis size of her boyfriends.
"My wife just sent me this," the rapper allegedly said at the time.
On the phone, the young main claims he saw a sexual photo of Kim.
"It was very revealing and personal," the creative told the outlet.
"I didn't really react."
A source close to the potential employee recalled being told about the photo of the Hulu star shortly after the meeting.
Kanye allegedly showed an explicit video of Kim to members of the creative team at Yeezy at least one other time, a person who claimed to have seen the video told Rolling Stone.
Another former Yeezy employee who worked with Kanye in Cody, Wyoming, told the outlet that the Grammy-winner was not "afraid to show explicit images or talk about situations that should be kept private."
BAD DEAL
In October 2023, Adidas dropped Kanye as various social media sites barred him from their platforms for making anti-Semitic comments online, in interviews, and with his clothing.
Toward the end of the month, Kanye was dropped by Adidas over his "harmful" and "dangerous" comments.
He sparked outrage after making a series of anti-Semitic comments, which Kim and her family spoke out against.
Amid pleas from fans and threats of major boycotts, Adidas announced its decision to move on from the rapper.
Gap and Balenciaga followed suit.
Kanye has said in the past that he suffers from a porn addiction, making the comments in a bizarre online rant that has since been deleted.
He claimed at the time that Hollywood "is a giant brothel" and "pornography destroyed my family."

"I deal with the addiction, Instagram promotes it," he stated.
Kanye has not addressed the latest allegations against him.
