Kanye West is facing more shocking revelations in a lawsuit filed by his former assistant.
Lauren Pisciotta is now accusing the rap star of a near second rape after she claimed he drugged and raped her at a Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs recording session and party years earlier. The 36-year-old artist manager, fitness model and former OnlyFans star alleged West told her of the rape in 2022.
According to Britain’s Daily Mail, a new lawsuit claims that West, 47, asked to have sex with Pisciotta numerous times. After continuously being rebuffed, the rapper nearly raped her a second time.
The suit also states that West choked her when they ran into each other at a concert shortly after she was fired in October 2022, in addition to being terrorized by his friends when she was at home.
According to the lawsuit, West was in San Francisco in July 2021 to work on his Donda album. Pisciotta, his assistant at the time, was staying at a hotel when the rapper banged on her door at 6 a.m.
She states that she opened the door and West ran to the shower claiming his room’s faucet wasn’t working.
After running the water for two minutes, West came out of the bathroom with a towel around his waist, dropped it to the floor, then pushed her onto the bed and climbed on top of her.
“Ye then stepped onto the bed and stood tall, straddling himself over (Pisciotta’s) body and looking down on her,” the lawsuit states.
“(Pisciotta), in a shocked state, somewhat braced herself for what might happen next.”
According to the filing, West leaned closer to Pisciotta and braced himself by reaching for the wall behind the bed.
“He attempted to forcefully thrust his naked body onto and penis into (Pisciotta’s) face,” the lawsuit said.
“[Pisciotta] started to move her body to get up, pleading with West to stop. West removed his hand from the wall behind the headboard, forcing [Pisciotta] to stay in place. At first, [West] ignored [Pisciotta’s] pleas to stop, [Pisciotta] stated over and over again to West ‘I don’t want to do this, I don’t want to do this.’”
The lawsuit claimed West became “annoyed and tired” and eventually got off the bed. West told her he was “sorry” and that it wouldn’t happen again before grabbing his clothes and leaving the hotel room.
According to Pisciotta, West’s sexual harassment also occurred in Paris, New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, Atlanta and Austin, Texas.
