Kanye beaks silence over ex-assistant’s ‘outlandish’ assault allegations

Kanye West has denied explosive allegations of sexual assault and trafficking made by his former assistant, Lauren Pisciotta, calling her claims ‘absurd and outlandish’.

In a statement issued on Sunday via a Yeezy spokesperson to DailyMail.com, the rapper’s team dismissed Pisciotta’s amended lawsuit as a ‘breathless new instalment of fantasy fiction’.

“Each new revision contradicts the others,” the spokesperson said. “We stand ready to annihilate Ms. Pisciotta’s tall tales before a jury –ؘ an exoneration so inevitable that even she, lost in her fog of fantasy, must surely see it coming.”

Yeezy representative Milo Yiannopoulos added, “She picked the one rapper who loathes violence, has never been arrested, and doesn’t even own a gun.”

The latest filing by Pisciotta includes serious claims of kidnapping, false imprisonment, battery, rape, and sex trafficking. She alleges West forced her to perform oral sex during a 2021 business trip to San Francisco shortly after she began working for him.

In response, Pisciotta’s attorney Lisa Bloom said  West’s team is ‘spinning a slickly worded and outrageously false attack,’ and said Kanye has publicly admitted much of what she’s claiming.

She added, “We look forward to seeing him in court, where he cannot hide behind a high-priced spin team.”
