Ye's former assistant Lauren Pisciotta now claims the rapper drugged and sexually assaulted her during a session at Sean "Diddy" Combs' studio.
According to a report TMZ published on Saturday, October 12, Pisciotta amended her previous lawsuit to include a stunning allegation against her former boss. Earlier this year, the former OnlyFans model sued Ye for sexual harassment after she accused him of sending several vulgar messages and sexually explicit videos before he fired her two years ago. Now, Pisciotta has alleged the multifaceted artist hooked up with her while she was unconscious during a recording session Combs' co-hosted in Santa Monica.
In the lawsuit, Pisciotta said she attended the studio session with Ye and a former client. While they were there, Ye allegedly ordered someone to pour her a drink that was "laced with an unidentified drug," per Page Six. She claimed the drink made her feel disoriented and later lost control of her body and speech. She woke up the next day and couldn't remember anything that happened the night before. She felt ashamed because she thought she had an embarrassing night in front of her colleagues. Despite the mounting allegations against Diddy, Pisciotta said Combs had nothing to do with the incident and only named him as a "co-host" of the studio session.
It wasn't until years later when Ye himself allegedly told her that they “did kind of hook up a little one time." The artist was reportedly married to Kim Kardashian at the time. Before they finalized their divorce in 2022, Kardashian reportedly accused Ye of cheating on her with Pisciotta, which made him confess.
“Still to that day, up until that conversation and revelations of true facts and actions taken that night, Plaintiff did not know or think she was sexually assaulted that night, as Plaintiff only thought she was roofied by a studio assistant, likely embarrassed herself and then took the blame,” the lawsuit said.
Pisciotta originally sued Ye for breach of contract, sexual harassment, wrongful termination and hostile work environment. She claimed he never paid her the $3 million severance she was promised when he fired her. Ye's legal team denied the "baseless" claims from the first lawsuit and alleged that she tried to extort him. As of this report, they have not responded to the new allegations.
