Kanye West is speaking out on the sexual harassment allegations brought on him by a former assistant.
More details below…
Speaking to Page Six, he released a statement via his lawyers on June 4.
“In response to these baseless allegations, Ye will be filing a lawsuit against Ms. Pisciotta. 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 statement reads.
“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,” it said and called the allegations against West “baseless.”
West’s team alleged that Pisciotta tried to use her position to gain clout and employment through “inappropriate means.”
She is suing the rapper for wrongful termination and sexual harassment.
