Kanye West is facing a new lawsuit from a former employee who claims he harassed her with antisemitic remarks and disturbing messages.
The woman, who is Jewish and suing under the name Jane Doe, says she worked as a marketing specialist for West’s Yeezy brand for six months.
She alleges that during this time, West frequently made offensive comments about Jewish people and even praised Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.
According to court documents, West once sent a text message saying, “Welcome to the first day of working for Hitler.” In another message, when the woman suggested he speak out against antisemitism, he allegedly replied, “I Am A NAZI.”
The lawsuit also claims that West verbally abused her and sent her unwanted explicit content. She was fired in June 2024, just one day after reporting his behavior to her manager.
The lawsuit accuses West of discrimination, harassment, creating a hostile work environment, retaliation, and breaking a verbal agreement to pay her wages. The former employee is seeking damages for the harm she says she suffered.
This is not the first time West has faced backlash over antisemitic remarks.
In recent years, he has been criticized for controversial statements that led to business and sponsorship losses. Now, this lawsuit adds to his growing legal troubles.
