According to the publication, the allegation is included in an amended complaint from ex-assistant Lauren Pisciotta, who worked with Kanye from 2021 to 2022.

In June of this year, she sued the rapper and producer for sexual harassment and wrongful termination, alleging that he masturbated in front of her and sent her sexually explicit texts and photos during the period of time that she worked for him.

The amended portion of the suit claims that, before she worked for Kanye, Pisciotta was drugged at a studio session co-hosted by him and Sean “Diddy” Combs, who currently faces many criminal charges as well.

Pisciotta alleges that “drinks were served to others in attendance, followed by an announcement that everybody had to drink if they wanted to stay,” and that after accepting her drink, “she felt less in control of her body and speech, and that is where plaintiff’s memories of that night escape her.”

Pisciotta also claims that Kanye later claimed that they “did kind of hook up a little one time,” and that “women love to say they don’t remember” after she said that she did not recall what took place at the studio session.

“Up until that very point, right before that very conversation, Plaintiff was unaware that she had been subjected to gender violence and sexual battery on that studio night by KANYE WEST a.k.a YE,” the amended lawsuit also reads.

We’ve reached out to Kanye’s manager for comment on this suit — we’ll let you know if we hear back. As far as the original lawsuit is concerned, a legal rep previously told People that Kanye is denying the claims and “will be filing a lawsuit” against Pisciotta.
