Lauren, a former OnlyFans model, has filed a lawsuit against Kanye West, claiming sexual harassment, wrongful termination, and breach of contract. According to TMZ, Lauren began working for Kanye, 46, in July 2021 after they met while he was developing his fashion line. She collaborated with Kanye on three songs for his album “Donda.”
The legal filing states that a year into her employment, Kanye approached Lauren, asking her to delete her OnlyFans account and be “God like,” promising to pay her $1 million a year if she complied. Lauren agreed to the request, but shortly after, she alleges that Kanye began sending her inappropriate text messages. One message read, “See my problem is I be wanting to fk but then after I fk I want a girl to tell me how hard they been fked while I’m fking them. Then I want her to cheat on me.”
Lauren claims that the texts escalated to even more explicit messages about his sexual fantasies. The lawsuit also alleges that Kanye sent her numerous explicit texts, sexual videos, and photos, including at least two clips of him having sex with a model. Despite being promoted to Chief of Staff for Kanye’s companies and paid $4 million, Lauren alleges that she was fired in October 2022 and offered $3 million in severance, which she accepted but never received.
Lauren is suing Kanye for breach of contract, sexual harassment, wrongful termination, and creating a hostile work environment. The U.S. Sun has reached out to Kanye’s representatives for comment.
This case is not the first time Kanye has faced accusations of inappropriate behavior. In November 2022, a former Yeezy staffer claimed that Kanye showed them intimate photos of his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, among other inappropriate actions. Rolling Stone reported that various Yeezy staffers sent an open letter to Adidas, which eventually severed ties with Kanye due to his hate speech. The letter detailed instances where Kanye allegedly played pornography during meetings and showed explicit images of Kim to employees.
One specific incident reportedly occurred in Chicago in 2018 during a job interview. A young creative recalled Kanye showing him a sexual photo of Kim, saying, “My wife just sent me this.” Another former Yeezy employee in Cody, Wyoming, told Rolling Stone that Kanye was not “afraid to show explicit images or talk about situations that should be kept private.”
In October 2023, Adidas dropped Kanye following his antisemitic comments online and in interviews. Major brands like Gap and Balenciaga also ended their partnerships with him. Kanye has publicly admitted to having a porn addiction, describing Hollywood as “a giant brothel” and claiming that “pornography destroyed my family” in a since-deleted online rant.
