New trouble for Kanye West; the musical artist gets sued for alleged sexual assault during a 2010 music video shoot

Former America’s Next Top Model contestant Jenifer An has filed a lawsuit against Kanye West, alleging that he sexually assaulted her during the 2010 video shoot for La Roux’s In For The Kill remix. An, who was hired as a background actor, claims West choked and strangled her until she blacked out. The lawsuit further alleges that the incident, which An describes as “pornographic gagging,” was filmed. An is seeking compensatory and punitive damages.
