Kanye West Suing Ex-Assistant After NSFW Allegations, Claiming He's the One Being 'Blackmailed'

Kanye West's former assistant, Lauren Pisciotta, previously alleged that the rapper sent her NSFW messages and videos. More recently, the Yeezy founder clapped back and denied the allegations against him, saying his team would file a lawsuit against the model.

In a statement provided to Page Six, the Donda rapper's lawyers claimed that his former assistant attempted to pursue West "sexually to coerce employment and other material benefits," adding that Pisciotta, who is an OnlyFans model, blackmailed him after her advances "were rejected."

In response to the "baseless allegations" by the online content creator, the musician will file a lawsuit against her.

"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," the legal team added.

The lawyers later explained that Pisciotta was terminated for "being unqualified" and for demanding "unreasonable sums of money," including a $4 million annual salary.

She also allegedly had documented incidents of her "lascivious, unhinged conduct."

Ye's team went on to list down some of her alleged inappropriate behavior while working for the rapper, stating that there was one time she offered him "sex on his birthday," to which the musician declined.

They also claimed that she had sent the rapper unsolicited nude photos and sexual narratives and was seen twerking in the office.

She also allegedly bragged about having a sexual encounter with a soccer player while texting her boss.

After her advances were rejected, the lawyers stated that the woman's blackmail demands went from $60 million last year to $50 million last week after filing the lawsuit against the rapper.

They concluded their statement by saying that the model used her position at Yeezy to seek material gains, clout, and employment despite being inappropriate.

The recent news comes after Pisciotta filed a lawsuit against West, alleging sexual harassment and wrongful termination.

The woman claimed that she was hired in 2021 with a starting salary of $1 million, but she was required to be available to the musician all the time.

She further alleged that Ye offered her another $1 million if she deleted her OnlyFans account, but she was never paid the money she was promised.

Pisciotta continued alleging that West had sent her inappropriate text messages, sent her videos of having sex with models, and would allegedly masturbate while he was on the phone with her.
