Lauren Pisciotta Responds to Hate Comments Amid Kanye West Lawsuit: “I’ve Never Had a Desire to Write Anything Like That to Anyone”

Lauren Pisciotta, formerly an assistant to Kanye West who is now known as Ye, recently expressed her feelings regarding the significant online backlash she has faced following her lawsuit against the artist. On Wednesday, October 16, 2024, she took to her social media platforms to address the intensity of the negativity aimed at her, stating:

“I want to understand what goes through your minds when you type things like, ‘Go kill yourself’ or ‘I hope your car crashes, catches fire, and you die a slow, painful death.’ What prompts you to write such things to me?”

She elaborated further:

“I have never felt the urge to write anything like that to another person.”

Below is a repost of Lauren’s original video featured on @akademiks:

In June, Pisciotta filed a lawsuit against the rapper, claiming instances of sexual harassment, breach of contract, wrongful termination, and an intimidating work environment. She alleged that Kanye sent inappropriate texts and videos her way. Just earlier this week, she updated her lawsuit to incorporate claims of sexual assault.

Lauren Pisciotta alleges Kanye offered her a $1 million salary with conditions

Within her post, Pisciotta went on to remark:

“The hate I’ve experienced has been overwhelming. I realize that not everyone believes me or likes me, which is completely understandable. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.”

According to a report released by TMZ in June 2024, which referenced Pisciotta’s original allegations against Kanye, she began her employment with him in June 2021. In her lawsuit, she claimed that Kanye had promised her a $1 million salary to close her OnlyFans account and join his team. However, she contended that his behavior quickly shifted to harassment.

Kanye allegedly sent her explicit texts, photos, and videos. One alleged message cited by the publication read:

“My issue is that I want to engage sexually, but then afterward, I want to hear a girl tell me how intensely she was satisfied during our encounter. I also want her to be unfaithful to me.”

Pisciotta also alleged that West would engage in masturbation during their phone discussions, challenging her to guess what he was doing at that moment. The ‘Vultures’ artist reportedly sent her two videos depicting sexual acts with another model.

According to her complaints, Pisciotta was tasked with locating women for Kanye and his wife, Bianca Censori, to engage with romantically. He was said to have frequently invited her to become intimate with him and reacted negatively if she pursued relationships with other individuals.

She further claimed that she was dismissed from her position in October 2022 but accepted a severance offer of $3 million, which she alleged was never fulfilled.

Just earlier this week, Pisciotta revised her lawsuit to also assert claims of rape, detailing a troubling incident that allegedly transpired during a 2021 studio session organized by Diddy, during which she claimed she was drugged and awoke the next morning with no recollection of the events.

The updated complaint states that years later, while still working with Kanye, he alluded to the incident, suggesting that they had indeed been involved (meaning she was assaulted).

Importantly, it should be noted that Lauren is not implicating Diddy in any wrongdoing.

In a statement given to Page Six in June 2024, Kanye’s legal representatives refuted Pisciotta’s allegations, asserting that she had harassed West and attempted to extort him financially.

As of now, neither Kanye nor his team have publicly addressed the latest developments in this case.
