Kanye West, also known as Ye, has been hit with two more lawsuits, piling onto his growing list of legal troubles. Last Thursday, an anonymous former employee, referred to as John Doe, filed a lawsuit claiming emotional distress and retaliation. The suit also alleges that Ye asked Doe to investigate the Kardashian family for ties to “sex trafficking” and hired private investigators to follow his wife, Bianca Censori, while she visited family in Australia.

Just two days later, another legal challenge emerged. West’s former assistant, Lauren Pisciotta, amended a lawsuit she originally filed in June to include new allegations that West drugged and sexually assaulted her during a studio session co-hosted by Sean “Diddy” Combs. Pisciotta claims that she blacked out after being given a drink and that West later admitted they “did kind of hook up.”

Although Combs co-hosted the session, he is not named in the lawsuit and no allegations are made against him. West has not yet responded to the updated claims.
