Kanye West’s former assistant sued him for sexual harassment and wrongful termination, according to court documents obtained by Page Six.
In the filing, Lauren Pisciotta shared that she started working with the disgraced rapper in July 2021 as he prepared to launch his Yeezy fashion line.
The influencer — who also collaborated with West on a few “Donda” songs — was offered $1 million for the job. The only condition was that she would be available to the “Heartless” crooner 24 hours a day, seven days a week — which she accepted.

In her lawsuit, Pisciotta detailed that she was also making an additional $1 million from OnlyFans until West, 46, asked her to be more “God Like” and delete her account in 2022.
In return, West — whose legal name is Ye — allegedly raised the model’s salary to $2 million a year to compensate for the lost income. However, he allegedly never adjusted her salary.
Shortly after her raise, the father of four allegedly started sending her vulgar text messages.

“See my problem is I be wanting to f–k but then after I f–k I want a girl to tell me how hard they been f–ked while I’m f–ing them. Then I want her to cheat on me,” one of the text messages allegedly read.
Along with the crude messages, he allegedly shared explicit details of sexual acts he wanted to experience, as well as photos and videos of West having intercourse with other women.
Pisciotta also allegedly received intimate photos of “current and former” Yeezy employees — both “men and women” — from West.
Per the filing, Pisciotta started receiving inappropriate messages from the “Heatless” singer.laurenpisciotta/Instagram

In the lawsuit, Pisciotta detailed multiple other incidents with the “Bound 2” singer, which included him allegedly masturbating while they were on the phone, asking about her boyfriends’ penis sizes and even allegedly forcing her “to remove her cardigan while she was in the office because he said ‘it was covering too much.’”
In another instance, he allegedly locked them in a room together and masturbated next to her before falling asleep. She also claimed that he got angry after she shut down any advances to “date or have sex” with him.
By September 2022, Pisciotta was promoted to chief of staff of several of West’s companies and offered a $4 million salary. However, just a month later, he fired her.
Pisciotta was offered $3 million in severance, which she also allegedly never received.
Now, in her lawsuit, Pisciotta is seeking compensation for breach of contract and hostile work environment.

In a statement to Page Six Tuesday, West’s legal team slammed Pisciotta’s lawsuit as “baseless” and alleged she’s been blackmailing the rapper.
“In response to these baseless allegations, Ye will be filing a lawsuit against Ms. Pisciotta, who actively pursued him sexually to coerce employment and other material benefits, then engaged in blackmail and extortion when her advances were rejected,” the statement reads.
“Prior to her termination as an assistant, Ms. Pisciotta stole his cell phone in an attempt to destroy phone records that would contradict her claims, all of which have been preserved.
“She was terminated for being unqualified, demanding unreasonable sums of money (including a $4 million annual salary) and numerous documented incidents of her lascivious, unhinged conduct.”

West’s legal team also argued that “Pisciotta offered Ye sex on his birthday to which he declined, sent Ye unsolicited nude images, sexual narratives and was seen twerking in the office during business hours.”
They also cited an instance in which Pisciotta allegedly bragged about being “ejaculated on by a soccer player while simultaneously texting her boss.”
Pisciotta also allegedly “used sexual coercion” in an attempt to get more money as well as other incentives, such as Hermes Birkin bags, a Lamborghini and funds for plastic surgery.
“Upon having her advances rebuked, Pisciotta’s blackmail demands have gone from $60 million last year to $50 million in last week’s frivolous filing,” the lawyers continued, adding her “behavior is entirely inconsistent with someone who claims to have been sexually harassed or experienced a hostile work environment.”

West’s latest legal battle comes more than a month after he was accused of firing a black former employee because of the color of his skin.
According to the filing obtained by Page Six, Benjamin Deshon Provo was employed to work as a security guard at the Grammy winner’s Christian school, Donda Academy, in August 2021.
During his employment, Provo alleged that West “screamed at and berated black employees” and “regularly expressed negative beliefs associated with prominent black leaders.”
