A former employee of Kanye West sues the rapper and his company Yeezy, alleging a pattern of antisemitic and misogynistic harassment.
A former employee of Kanye West , known for his controversial behavior, is suing the rapper and his company Yeezy for alleged discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. The employee, identified as 'Jane Doe' in court documents, claims West targeted her due to her Jewish faith and gender.
She alleges West engaged in a pattern of antisemitic and misogynistic behavior, including referring to himself as Hitler, making threats based on her heritage, and sending offensive messages about her appearance. The lawsuit, filed in California's Superior Court, details instances where West allegedly made hateful remarks, including calling himself a Nazi and threatening Doe with violence. The complaint also states that Doe was fired shortly after reporting West's conduct to her supervisor. Her legal team argues that West's actions constitute a campaign of harassment and bullying, exacerbated by his large social media following, which amplifies his harmful statements.West's recent behavior has drawn widespread condemnation. Several companies, including Shopify and his talent agency, 33&West, have severed ties with him. Elon Musk even labeled West's Twitter account 'NSFW' due to its offensive content. This lawsuit follows a string of incidents where West has made inflammatory and antisemitic remarks, ultimately leading to the termination of his partnership with Adidas in 2022.
