Kanye West sued for sexual harassment by ex-assistant | Entertainment

Kanye West has been accused of sexual harassment, among other things, in a lawsuit filed by his former assistant Lauren Pisciotta. Pisciotta claims West masturbated in front of her without her consent after keeping her captive on his private jet under work-related pretenses. Ye allegedly sent her explicit text messages, including detailed descriptions of his sexual fantasies and personal pornographic videos. The lawsuit also included claims of wrongful termination and breach of contract. Pisciotta says she was promoted to chief of staff at his various companies, which included a $3 million raise. However, she was promptly fired from that position and accepted a $3 million severance package that she says she never received. In 2022, West was accused of sending sexually explicit material of his then-wife Kim Kardashian to Yeezy employees.
