Kanye West Facing New Lawsuit From Former Employees
“The suit alleges Kanye and co. engaged in “forced labor and cruel inhuman, or degrading treatment.” The two were accused of making false promises to pay their adult and minor employees and forcing them to work insanely long hours as they were openly mocked with racist jabs and called “new slaves,”‘ TMZ writes.

West in More Legal Trouble
This is not Kanye’s first rodeo with legal trouble this year. The Grammy winner is being sued by another one of his former employees.

“Kanye West’s ex-executive/personal assistant claims he gave her the boot after sending her vile sexual texts and videos,” TMZ wrote.
“Lauren Pisciotta says in her lawsuit, she was an OnlyFans model who posted a bunch of bikini and lingerie pics and was super successful — making $1 mil a year.”
