Allegations Shake Yeโs Inner Circle
Rapper and fashion mogul Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, is under fire again. A second amended lawsuit filed by his former assistant, Lauren Pisciotta, accuses him of sexual assault, sex trafficking, stalking, battery, and false imprisonment.
Pisciotta worked for Ye between 2021 and 2023. Her complaint paints a harrowing picture of repeated abuse, coercion, and intimidation. She claims Ye groped her, verbally degraded her, and demanded she wear revealing clothing.
Worse still, she says Ye forced her to watch him engage in sexual acts with other women, and pressured her to join. When she refused, the suit alleges, he became more aggressive.
Abuse Allegations Include Drugging and Rape
The most explosive claims involve alleged incidents of rape and assault. Pisciotta says Ye once orally raped her without consent. On another occasion, she alleges he tried to penetrate her with his fingers.
She also accuses him of forcibly kissing her, grabbing her throat, and offering her up as a sexual favor to another person in exchange for sex.
According to the complaint, these incidents happened during and after a studio session with Sean โDiddyโ Combs. Pisciotta says Ye drugged her and later forced himself into her hotel room naked.
Ye Accused of Retaliation Tactics
After Pisciotta first filed suit in 2024, she claims Ye tried to retaliate. The new filing says Ye arranged for someone to falsely report her to police. Law enforcement soon descended on her home under suspicions of child abuse and other fabricated accusations.
Pisciotta describes this as a coordinated campaign of harassment and intimidation designed to silence her.
Sex Trafficking Allegations Add New Layer
Perhaps the most damning new charge is sex trafficking. Pisciotta alleges that Ye lured her in with promises of career success, then used force and manipulation to push her into his sexual orbit.
She says he tried repeatedly to coerce her into sexual activity under the pretense of professional opportunity. When she continued to resist, he allegedly fired her.
Legal Teams Clash Over Claims
Yeโs representatives have fired back, calling Pisciottaโs claims โbaseless.โ They say she was unqualified, erratic, and demanding millions in salary. In a statement to Rolling Stone, Yeโs lawyer accused Pisciotta of extortion.
Despite this, her lawsuit is gaining traction. The latest filing has sparked public outrage and calls for investigation. Some say itโs part of a broader pattern of abuse by powerful men in entertainment.
Online Reactions Reflect Growing Concern
Social media users responded with disbelief and anger. Many voiced support for Pisciotta, applauding her courage for coming forward.
โHow many more women have to suffer before someone stops this man?โ asked one X (formerly Twitter) user. Others compared Ye to Harvey Weinstein and expressed shock that he still has a platform.
Meanwhile, memes and comment threads calling for Ye to be held accountable have gone viral. Some expressed concern about Yeโs mental health, while others dismissed those arguments as distractions from the gravity of the charges.
What Happens Next for Ye?
As the legal battle heats up, Ye could face major career fallout. Pisciottaโs case adds to a growing list of lawsuits and public controversies that have already tarnished his brand.
Though Ye is no stranger to scandal, these new allegations could mark a turning point. If proven in court, they could open the door to criminal charges, civil penalties, and a full-scale industry backlash.
Observers say the case may also push lawmakers and the public to demand stricter accountability for celebrity abuse. Victimsโ rights advocates are calling for transparency, stronger protections, and swifter justice.
One thing is clear: the pressure is mounting. Yeโs fame and fortune may no longer be enough to shield him from the consequences.
As this lawsuit unfolds, the world will be watching.
