Kanye West Accused of Sexual Assault, Sex Trafficking by Ex-Assistant | E! News

Kanye West is facing more troubles. Over a year after the musician was first sued by his former assistant, Lauren Piscata for wrongful termination and sexual harassment, among other complaints, her attorneys filed a second amended complaint on July 8th with additional accusations. According to documents obtained by E! News. Piscata, who worked for West for a year and a half after being hired in July 2021, accused him of a hostile work environment, assault, battery, sex trafficking, gender discrimination, stalking, false imprisonment, intentional infliction of emotional distress, as well as failure to prevent harassment, discrimination, and retaliation. In her filing, the 36-year-old accused West of being a sexual abuser, sexual harasser, online bully, anti-semite, bigot, and a misogynist who proudly boasts about being all these things. Her attorneys argued that the rapper had presented a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity as his employee that Piscata believed would further her ambitions and launch her career to new heights. Instead, according to the amended complaint, she said West made obscene comments about her body, demanding that she wear tight fitted clothing, as well as groping her regularly and forcing her to watch Yay perform sexual acts with other women. West was accused of falsely imprisoning Piscato when he knowingly locked her inside of his bedroom on an airplane with him, which her attorney said resulted in her being confined to the room with Yay for a significant period of time, enough for Yay to masturbate until he fell asleep. The complaint said that Piscato was allegedly expected to engage in sexing with West, was asked to join his sexual encounter repeatedly despite declining, and accused him of sexually assaulting her on one occasion. Her attorneys accused West of threatening her with termination if she did not follow his orders. The document said Yay terrorized and dominated his employee Miss Piscata’s life for approximately two years, all under the pretense of offering serious career advancement opportunities in the music and fashion industry. Her attorneys further alleged that even after being abruptly terminated in the fall of 2023, West continued to subjugate and intimidate Piscata through assault, battery, stalking, and harassment. Piscata allegedly moved to Florida after the rapper moved into her Los Angeles apartment complex, placing her in fear for her safety. Piscata is requesting general damages to be determined at trial, past and future earnings in an amount determined at trial, attorney’s fees, punitive and exemplary damages, and what relief the court may deem proper. E-News has reached out to West’s team and Pascata’s reps for comment, and has not yet heard back. [Music]
