Kanye West is taking legal action against his former assistant, Lauren Pisciotta, who accused him of sexual harassment. Pisciotta, an OnlyFans creator making $1 million a year, alleges that Kanye hired her to work on his fashion line and album “Donda,” but then subjected her to vulgar text messages, videos, and inappropriate behavior during phone calls.
In response, Kanye’s attorney provided a statement to Complex, claiming that Pisciotta pursued him sexually to secure employment and benefits but resorted to blackmail and extortion when rejected. The statement detailed incidents of Pisciotta’s alleged misconduct, including stealing Kanye’s phone, demanding a $4 million salary, sending unsolicited nude images, and making inappropriate advances.
Kanye denies the allegations and plans to file a lawsuit against Pisciotta. The statement also accuses Pisciotta of using her association with Kanye for material gains and clout. The statement concludes that Pisciotta’s actions are inconsistent with someone experiencing harassment or a hostile work environment.
Furthermore, it was revealed that Pisciotta has targeted other celebrities, with Jay Leno also suing her for theft.
