Lauren Pisciotta, Kanye West’s former assistant, is reportedly “in hiding” after filing a sexual harassment and wrongful termination lawsuit against the rapper.
The lawsuit, filed in June 2024, accuses Kanye of sending Pisciotta graphic text messages, masturbating during phone calls, drugging her, and more.
In October 2024, Pisciotta amended the lawsuit with additional details. West has denied the allegations and plans to countersue, calling the claims “baseless.”
Pisciotta’s lawyer, Arick Fudali, recently discussed the emotional toll the lawsuit has taken on his client. He shared with Mediaite that Pisciotta has faced significant public backlash, especially from West and his supporters.
“Lauren has really suffered,” Fudali explained. “She’s afraid of the backlash and what might happen based on the public ridicule from Mr. West and his fans.” According to Fudali, Pisciotta is still in hiding, with the legal battle continuing to take its toll on her.
Despite facing mockery from West on social media, Pisciotta is reportedly focused on seeking justice in court. A trial date has yet to be set, but Pisciotta’s legal team remains determined to stand by her side through the process.
