After his former assistant filed court documents accusing him of sexual harassment and breach of contract, Kanye West has declared he will countersue her.

According to Lauren Pisciotta's lawsuit, the celebrity texted her obscenity and engaged in sexual acts over the phone.

Following Pisciotta's rejection of her sexual advances, West's attorney has now labeled those claims as "baseless" and claimed that the actress was subjected to "blackmail and extortion."

"Ye will be filing a lawsuit against Ms. Pisciotta in response to these baseless allegations," they continued, referring to the rapper by his current preferred name.

Pisciotta is thought to have worked for West from 2021 to 2022, first on his fashion line and then as his $1 million (£780,000) annual personal assistant. 

She claims that the celebrity sent her a ton of explicit texts while she worked for him, some of which included links to explicit videos. 

Additionally, Pisciotta stated that he once "trapped" her in a private room on his plane and that he then pledurised in front of her while speaking to her on the phone. 

In her lawsuit, the former OnlyFans model claimed that she was fired suddenly in 2022 and that she never received the promised severance pay.


West's lawyer challenged the story, saying that Pisciotta "was terminated for being unqualified" and "demanding unreasonable sums of money," including an annual salary of $4m (£3.13m).

They also accused Pisciotta of "lascivious, unhinged conduct," claiming that she "consistently used sexual coercion" to demand money and material items, including designer handbags and a Lamborghini car.

The statement also claimed that Pisciotta tried to blackmail West for $60 million (£47 million) after he turned down her advances. 

The BBC contacted Ms. Pisciotta to request a response, but she did not respond immediately. 

"Your soul becomes aligned with freedom when you allow others the liberty to dislike you, judge you, and disagree with you," she wrote in a message she shared on her Instagram story on Tuesday.
