    Kanye West hits out at ‘absurd’ sex trafficking and assault lawsuit from ex-assistant

    Cliff Notes – Kanye West hits out at ‘absurd’ sex trafficking and assault lawsuit from ex-assistant

    • Kanye West has vehemently denied allegations of sexual assault and sex trafficking made by his former personal assistant, Lauren Pisciotta, describing the claims as “absurd” and contradictory.
    • Pisciotta’s amended complaints include serious accusations such as assault, battery, and false imprisonment, which West’s representatives claim are fabrications.
    • In response to the allegations, Pisciotta’s attorney asserts that West’s own admissions will be detrimental in court, as he has previously acknowledged aspects of her claims.

    Kanye West hit back after being accused of sexual assault and sex trafficking by his former personal assistant in a bombshell complaint.

    Lauren Pisciotta originally sued the Gold Digger rapper, 48, last June, alleging that he stalked and sexually harassed her while she worked for him—claims he previously denied.

    After amending her complaint in October, she has reportedly now made fresh allegations in a second complaint, accusing him of assault, battery, sex trafficking, and false imprisonment.

    In a new statement via his representatives, West blasted the claims as ‘absurd,’ noting that Pisciotta has advanced her legal complaint ‘four times’.

    ‘Each new revision contradicts the others; each is more absurd and outlandish than all previous claims combined,’ the Yeezy spokesperson told DailyMail.com.

    ‘Does Ms. Pisciotta actually believe her confabulations? We cannot know. But this breathless new instalment of fantasy fiction discredits all past, present, and future testimony.’

    The response continued: ‘We stand ready to annihilate Ms. Pisciotta’s tall tales before a jury—an exoneration so inevitable that even she, lost in her fog of fantasy, must surely see it coming.’

    Yeezy representative Milo Yiannopoulos also issued a statement regarding ‘the absurdity of Pisciotta’s quadruply revised claims, which now include kidnapping, battery, rape, false imprisonment, and even sex trafficking.’

    ‘She picked the one rapper who loathes violence, has never been arrested, and doesn’t even own a gun,’ Yiannopoulos said.

    In the original documents obtained by TMZ, Pisciotta, who worked under the dad-of-four between 2021 and 2022, said that the pair travelled to San Francisco to break ground on his Donda school.

    While on the work trip, the OnlyFans model claimed that he made unwanted advances, which she tried to fend off, before he kissed her and asked personal questions about her vagina.

    She further alleged that, during a writing session in his hotel suite, West masturbated and touched her vagina but fell asleep mid-sentence.

    The outlet reports that he then showed up at her hotel room to use the shower but shoved her onto a bed and pinned her down, forcing his penis into her mouth.

    Influencer Pisciotta reportedly begged him to stop and then ‘froze in shock and ’fear’—the Grammy winner eventually apologised and walked out of her room.

    It was also claimed that he offered Pisciotta as a sexual gift to an unnamed person in exchange for letting him have sex with their partner.

    She added that the musician ‘notoriously offered women as sexual gifts to men’.

    After West’s public response this weekend, Pisciotta’s attorney, Lisa Bloom, also spoke out.

    ‘While Kanye West’s publicist has come up with a slickly worded (and outrageously false and defamatory) attack on Ms. Pisciotta, Kanye himself has publicly admitted much of what she’s claiming,’ Bloom began.

    ‘Kanye’s publicist is deafeningly silent on Kanye’s own admissions, which will destroy him in court.

    ‘We look forward to seeing him there, where he cannot hide behind a high-priced spin team.’

    West hired Pisciotta in July 2021, and she was promoted to Chief of Staff for his various companies the following year.

    She alleged that she was fired in October 2022, and offered $3million (£2.2m) in severance but never received the money.

    Last year, she filed a lawsuit suing him for breach of contract, sexual harassment, wrongful termination, and a hostile work environment.

    The fashion designer has already denied all allegations made against him once before, accusing his former employee of ‘blackmail and extortion’.

    ‘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,’ his team told TMZ last June.

    ‘It is evident that Ms. Pisciotta leveraged her association with Ye and his company, and her proximity to him, to seek material gains, clout, and employment through inappropriate means.’

    In mounting claims last October, she claimed that he drugged and raped her while attending a party thrown by Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.

    It’s not the only blow dealt to the rapper. Rubicon Festival in Slovakia was cancelled on July 11 following a huge outcry after Ye was set to headline.
