Kanye West is making headlines for all the wrong reasons again. This time, he’s being sued by a former assistant who’s accusing him of wrongful termination and harassment. The details in this lawsuit are jaw-dropping and could potentially lead to more stories from others who’ve worked with him.
It seems Kanye’s workplace drama has reached new heights, with his employees now coming forward with serious allegations. His wife, Bianca, is also reportedly feeling uneasy about the situation. Reports indicate Kanye has been sending nasty texts and making outrageous demands. To make matters worse, he’s been pressuring Bianca to start a family with him while using her as a promotional tool for his new adult entertainment ventures.
Here’s what’s going on.
Just as Kanye was trying to make a comeback with his clothing line and new music, he’s hit with a sexual harassment lawsuit from his former assistant, Lauren. She started working for Kanye in July 2021 after meeting him through his fashion line and even collaborated on a few of his songs.
According to her, about a year into her job, Kanye made an odd and troubling request: he wanted her to delete her OnlyFans account and promised her $1 million a year if she did. He also demanded she acknowledge his ‘Godlike’ status, which raises some serious questions about his behavior and control over his employees.
Breaking News: Kanye West Sued for Wrongful Termination and Harassment
Kanye West is in hot water after a former assistant, Lauren, filed a lawsuit accusing him of wrongful termination and harassment. According to Lauren, Kanye offered her a $1 million annual salary if she quit her job, which she agreed to. Things took a troubling turn after her resignation.
Lauren claims that Kanye began sending her a barrage of explicit and disturbing text messages. One message reportedly included a graphic description of his sexual preferences and fantasies. The texts were said to be filled with vulgar language and offensive content, including racially charged remarks.
In addition to the texts, Lauren alleges that Kanye would engage in inappropriate behavior during phone calls, asking if she could hear or guess what he was doing. He was also reportedly fixated on the size of her boyfriend’s genitalia.
Lauren’s lawsuit claims she received a range of disturbing materials from Kanye, including videos of him with a model. Despite being promoted to Chief of Staff with a $4 million salary, she says Kanye used his position to make her feel trapped and coerced. After being fired in October 2022, she accepted a $3 million severance package, but Kanye never paid up.
Now, Lauren is suing Kanye for breach of contract, harassment, wrongful termination, and creating a hostile work environment. The case is attracting attention, but Kanye has yet to publicly respond, as he’s currently in Italy. This situation might lead to more stories or revelations from others, and we’ll keep you posted as new details emerge.
Someone tweeted, “I’m glad Kim left when she did. It’s just sad that he has daughters.” Another person commented, “We stand with the assistant. Kanye did it with or without proof.” Someone else said, “That nurse—he’s out again.” And another tweet read, “He paid her a million dollars to leave and then $4 million a year. He thought that would keep her quiet.”
This isn’t Kanye West’s first legal battle—he’s been sued multiple times, as we’ve talked about on my channel. I could see this ending in a settlement, but it might also lead to more people coming forward, especially with the current climate and high-profile cases like Diddy’s. I didn’t think Kanye was on the same level as Diddy, but this situation is pretty disturbing.
I’ve also heard rumors about his issues with inappropriate behavior and explicit content. It’s frustrating—why not just get some help? Personally, I find depositions oddly entertaining. It’s one of the rare times I feel like I can truly be myself. I remember a deposition with Suge Knight where I was resting my face on my hands. His lawyer asked me to move them, and I told him, “You’ll need to ask me nicely to take my hands off my face. Please speak to me respectfully.” He said, “Okay, Mr. West, could you please take your hands off your face?” And I replied, “No.”
Let’s talk about the latest lawsuit involving Kanye West. Trevor Phillips, a former employee, has filed a lawsuit against Kanye, making some pretty serious allegations. Phillips claims that Kanye treated Black staff members much worse than white employees, often yelling at and berating them while staying calm with white staff. Phillips says he was a frequent target of this unfair treatment and harassment.
Phillips also accuses Kanye of spouting hate-filled comments, including anti-Semitic and anti-LGBT rhetoric. One shocking claim is that Kanye almost engaged in self-harm. Feeling deeply violated and unable to continue working under these conditions, Phillips decided to take legal action.
The lawsuit also highlights troubling incidents related to Kanye’s Donda Academy. Phillips alleges that Kanye made unsettling comments, like expressing a preference for dating white women, telling students they should shave their heads, and even suggesting he wanted to build a jail at the school. There were also bizarre claims about Kanye raving about Hitler and making derogatory statements about gay people.
Additionally, Phillips says Kanye demanded a Black security guard shave his dreadlocks or be fired and made some outlandish statements about Jewish people and population control. In one particularly bizarre moment, Kanye allegedly threatened to punch Phillips but then celebrated with a “Super Mario” dance before deciding to give him another chance.
These allegations paint a disturbing picture of Kanye’s behavior and raise serious questions about his actions and the environment at his ventures.
Let’s talk about another lawsuit involving Kanye West, this time from a former employee named Talia. Talia, who worked as Kanye’s design assistant, sued him, claiming he broke labor laws by treating employees like independent contractors. She said he didn’t pay her for required travel, off-the-clock work, and other expenses. She also alleged that Kanye didn’t allow any breaks for employees. They reached a settlement in March 2024, with Kanye and his companies paying Talia to settle the issue and keep it out of the spotlight.
But Talia’s case isn’t unique. Another ex-employee, who worked as Kanye’s security, said he was forced to sleep outside in an unfinished Malibu mansion under really poor conditions. Working for Kanye was apparently a wild ride—you never knew if you’d get the friendly Kanye, the religious Kanye, or the erratic Kanye.
This security guard is now suing Kanye for labor code violations and claiming a million dollars in unpaid wages. It seems Kanye often doesn’t pay his workers properly. He might give a bit of money up front but then change his mind or forget about the rest. Sadly, this is a common issue with some celebrities. For example, Sean Kingston recently faced legal problems for similar reasons.
Kanye West’s wife, Bianca Sor, is reportedly having a tough time with his latest move into the adult industry. Sources say Bianca is quite upset, and it’s easy to see why. Kanye’s been showcasing her in flashy public appearances, leading her to believe it might help her own career. But now, with Kanye’s interest in adult content, things have gone too far for her.
Kanye did announce he’s looking to dive into the adult film world, but some think it might just be a publicity stunt or an idea that didn’t really pan out. On top of that, Kanye has recently parted ways with his longtime Yeezy Chief of Staff, Milo Yiannopoulos. Milo left after more than two years, partly due to Kanye’s new plans. He expressed his best wishes for Kanye but voiced concerns about the new team and the direction they’re heading.
In his resignation letter, Milo mentioned he was uneasy about Kanye’s plans for a Yeezy studio, particularly because it might put him at risk due to his own struggles with addiction. Multiple sources have confirmed that key staff members are leaving, and Kanye’s rep did confirm earlier this year that the Yeezy studio project is still on the table.
In some pretty bizarre news, Kanye West recently tried to impress Bianca Sor with a luxury gift, but it didn’t last long. Kanye gave Bianca a 1992 Porsche, which was valued at around $120,000. They even went to the dealership together to pick it up. However, it looks like the excitement was short-lived, as the car was towed earlier this month—probably due to missed payments. Maybe they realized it was a bit too extravagant after all. There’s also a rumor that Kanye might be thinking about having a baby with Bianca, but we’ll have to wait and see!
Now, let’s switch gears and open a PO Box package. This one is from Talia Tucker in New Jersey. You know how much I love getting your letters and gifts. I just read a really sweet letter from a fan in the last video, so I’m excited to see what’s in this package.
It looks like Talia sent a book! And there are some stickers too. The book is called “100 Mil, Five Colleges, One Road Trip: Rules for Rule-Breaking.” Here’s a note from Talia: “Hi Slam, I know this book might not be your usual read, but I’m a huge fan and wanted to show my appreciation for the work you do. I hope you enjoy it. With so much love.”
Thank you so much, Talia! I’ll check if it’s on Amazon and drop a link below. It’s so cool to see how creative and thoughtful you all are. Maybe I’ll write a book someday—who knows? Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this video. I’ll catch you in the next one. Bye for now!
