Lawsuit Alleges Kanye West Called Himself Hitler & Abused Jewish Employee

Kanye West is facing a lawsuit from a former Yeezy employee who alleges he made antisemitic remarks and created a hostile work environment.

The anonymous plaintiff, who began working as a marketing specialist for Yeezy in late 2023, claims that West referred to himself as "Hitler" and a "Nazi," and made derogatory comments about her Jewish heritage.

She also alleges that West sent inappropriate messages, including nudity and Nazi greetings, and insulted her appearance. After reporting his conduct to her supervisor, she was terminated the following day. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages exceeding $35,000 and a jury trial.

This legal action comes amid broader controversies surrounding West's recent antisemitic behavior, including selling swastika-emblazoned T-shirts, which led to the shutdown of his Yeezy website and the termination of business relationships.
