According to the model’s recently filed lawsuit uncovered by TMZ, she was hired by Kylie Cosmetics for a couple of photoshoots to promote the brand’s products.
In the documents obtained by the outlet, Sasha alleged that she was “first hired for a one-day shoot back in June 2020 at a daily rate of $2,000.”
The influencer claims she was supposed to get paid by early July but that Kylie’s brand missed the deadline by more than a month.
The model asserted that Kylie Cosmetics was “perfectly able to pay her on time but they chose not to,” and as a result, she says they owe her up to $60,000 in penalty fees.
Sasha added that a similar incident occurred just one month later when she was hired for “another one-day photoshoot in August 2020.”
The beauty model claimed that again she didn’t receive her rate of $2,000 until more than 30 days after the deadline and is entitled to another $60,000.
As of Friday, June 16, a representative from Kylie’s team told TMZ that Sasha was in fact paid “before the NET 45 days per her invoice for both shoots,” adding that they “have documentation” to prove it.
Additionally, an inside source close to the makeup mogul has told TMZ that there’s a chance the model’s agent “could have held payment from her,” which would not fall on Kylie.
The informant added that “the same model later asked the company for a letter of recommendation, which Kylie’s brand did not do.”
According to the insider Sasha’s team “tried to get more work for her with Kylie’s company” after the 2020 photo shoots, despite her previous complaints of late payment.
The U.S. Sun has reached out to Sasha Palma’s rep for comment but have yet to hear back.
KYLIE IN COURT
Kylie is no stranger to legal issues and has even faced off against her brother Rob Kardashian’s baby mama Blac Chyna in 2021.
The 34-year-old sued his ex with claims that she attacked him with a six-foot metal pole just a month after their baby girl, Dream, was born in 2016.
Both Kylie and Kim, as well as their mom Kris Jenner, testified during the trial, according to documents obtained by Radar.
Kylie was said to have spoken about the alleged threats Rob’s ex made against her, while Kim reportedly discussed Blac Chyna’s alleged substance abuse issues.
In 2020, Rob claimed in court docs that he “believed that Chyna intended to inflict severe injury on him and feared for his life,” The Blast reported.
He alleged Blac Chyna attacked him and strangled him with an iPhone cord.
More claims about the supposed 2016 assault against him by the model were also made in court filings, including that she was under the influence of cocaine and attacked him with a six-foot metal pole.
Blac Chyna had responded to the claims via her lawyer, claiming there was no truth to the allegations.
Her lawyer Lynn Ciani said there was “NO violent attack, and that this is just another one of Rob’s lies.”
The Kardashians ended up winning their legal battle against the reality star in Los Angeles County Superior Court.
