Kanye West has settled with his former personal ***** istant in a lawsuit that accused the rapper of ***** ual harassment, ***** ual ***** ault and wrongful termination, according to TMZ.
Attorneys for Lauren Pisciotta filed court documents in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday stating that the two sides reached an "unconditional" settlement on July 23, according to TMZ. A request to dismiss the case is expected to be filed within 45 days of that date. Terms of the agreement were not made public.
Representatives for West, who legally changed his name to Ye, did not immediately respond to a request for comment, according to TMZ.
The filing appears to bring an end to one of the most closely watched civil cases involving the rapper. Attorneys for both sides told Judge Nicholas F. Daum on June 29 that they had settled in principle following a mediation session held earlier that month, according to Complex, which reviewed the court record. An upcoming hearing was taken off the calendar to give the parties time to finalize the deal, with the case scheduled to return to court in late September if further proceedings were needed.
Pisciotta, who worked as West's personal ***** istant from 2021 to 2022, first sued in 2024, alleging ***** ual harassment, breach of contract and wrongful termination. She said she was promoted to chief of staff of West's companies at an annual salary of $4 million before she was fired in October 2022, and that she never received a $3 million severance payment she had been offered, according to Complex.

USMNT star Folarin Balogun is holding his head high after a red card that'll render him unavailable for Monday's Round of 16 match against Belgium. The controversial call came during the Americans' 2-0 win over Bosnia and Herzegovina in the Round of 32.
Referee Raphael Claus made the decision after video review of the 64th minute incident, as Balogun appeared to inadvertently step on Tarik Muharemovic's foot before they tumbled onto the pitch. USMNT coach Mauricio Pochettino didn't agree with the call, as did fans who pointed out a similar play by Argentina's Lionel Messi that didn't garner a red card.
While the country is in uproar over the red card and the inability to appeal it, Balogun is focused on what he can control while growing from this experience. So, he posted a fitting song to his Instagram story: Kanye West's Stronger.
"Nah-nah-nah that, that don't kill me," West, who now goes by Ye, raps in the 2007 hit. "Can only make us stronger."
Balogun, the Americans' leading scorer, certainly hopes his team gets strong enough to win and advance in his absence Monday.

North West made a statement at Vetements' Spring/Summer 2027 menswear show during Paris Fashion Week, debuting an edgy new faux facial-piercing look that perfectly matched her signature alternative style. The 13-year-old daughter of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West arrived in blue pigtails with her apparent angel-bite lip studs drawing attention. But North was far from the only headline-making guest. Sharon Stone returned to the runway for the first time in more than three decades, while Britney Spears' sons Sean Preston and Jayden James both took to the catwalk in their modelling debuts. Olivia Palermo, Natalia Vodianova and Alexandre Grimaldi were also among the glamorous crowd.
North West ensured all eyes were on her with an edgy all-black Vetements look. The 13-year-old paired an oversized graphic top with a pleated mini skirt, sheer tights and chunky black boots wrapped in oversized silver chains. Her vivid turquoise-blue hair was styled into high pigtails, while her apparent faux lip, cheek and nose jewellery, spiked collar and dramatic manga-inspired makeup gave the outfit a full punk-pop finish.
Britney Spears and Kevin Federline's eldest son, Sean Preston Spears, made a confident runway appearance in a striking all-black ensemble. He wore a long satin-finish black coat with graphic patches and labels , layered over a black **** on-down shirt and necktie. Faded blue jeans and glossy black shoes gave the tailored look a deliberately undone edge, perfectly suited to Vetements' subversive approach to menswear.
Jayden joined his older brother Sean on the Vetements runway, opting for a more stripped-back take on the collection. Britney's younger son wore a fitted white tank top with relaxed pale-blue jeans, finished with a brown leather belt, oversized buckle and a cluster of chains at his hip. Dark leather shoes and softly tousled hair completed the effortless, off-duty look.
Sharon made one of the show's most memorable runway appearances, returning to the Paris Fashion Week catwalk more than 30 years after her last turn for Valentino. The Basic Instinct star wore an oversized white blazer over a black shirt and white tie, paired with ultra-shiny black thigh-high boots. Her sleek centre-parted blonde bob and understated makeup allowed the sharply tailored, high-contrast look to take centre stage.

Kim Kardashian is hesitant about going ahead with her relationship with Lewis Hamilton. They are one of the "it" couples that have been making headlines ever since they made their relationship official. However, sources say, despite having "a very good connection," the reality TV star is hesitant about her romance due to her past relationships.
After the Monaco Grand Prix, paparazzi captured Kim Kardashian and F1 star Lewis Hamilton "enjoying a romantic getaway in Monaco aboard a luxury yacht". The couple has been in the news ever since they made their relationship official in April. According to a source, the SKIMS founder took her time before entering the relationship, as she wasn't too keen on "dating around." However, the Formula 1 driver "was very charming" and "worked hard to romance her," according to the source.
"Privately, she's confided that she sees him as husband material," a source told Star. They insisted that the British racing star "is totally gaga for Kim too." Elaborating on their bond, the tipster **** erted that the couple is "very much in love and things are getting more and more serious all the time." Before starting to date, the two had been friends for years. Hence, looking at how things are going, the mom of four is confident that they "can fast-track things and move forward fairly quickly," instead of going for the "courtship phase."
However, the source adds that Kim is somewhat nervous about marriage due to her past relationships. "The divorce process was pretty rotten, and she's still carrying those scars in many ways, especially after what Kanye's put her through," revealed the source. But despite this, being an "old-fashioned romantic," she is still hopeful about finding love. Although she's reportedly trying to follow her head and make cautious decisions, her heart is set on Hamilton.

The world of celebrity real estate is a heady place, one that is filled with glittering megamansions, luxury developments, and buzz-worthy listings. But there is also a much darker side to this gleaming industry, one plagued by scandal, backlash, and a very hefty dose of uproar.
In recent years, there has been no shortage of headlines about these dramas, the most recent of which centers around first daughter Ivanka Trump's plans to build a $1.4 billion resort on an island in Albania, a project that has sparked furious protests among locals.
Together with her husband, Jared Kushner, Ivanka is aiming to transform Sazan, a former Soviet weapon's base, into a 10,000-room hotel, complete with every high-end amenity the richest and most privileged travelers could ever imagine.
But the plans have been met with outrage from the people of Albania, who have turned out in the thousands to protest the development in recent days.
However, the couple are far from the only high-profile figures to have found themselves at the center of a real estate scandal, instead joining the likes of pop star Katy Perry, rapper Kanye West, and developer Mohamed Hadid, all of whom have courted controversy with their own property moves in recent years.

Bianca Censori, Kanye West's wife, makes her latex ensemble the standout moment at his 49th birthday celebration. The "Runaway" hitmaker hosted the special night with a concert in the Netherlands. However, Censori claimed the focus with her jaw-dropping outfit.
Ahead of his birthday concert in the Netherlands, Bianca Censori stepped out in Amsterdam with Kanye West, turning the city streets into an impromptu runway.
The couple left the Mandarin Hotel in Amsterdam, walking hand in hand. Censori wore a fitted tan bodysuit that followed her silhouette closely. The "Heartless" singer seemed upbeat and was seen smiling at the 31-year-old, who styled her hair in pigtails. The model completed the look with nude makeup and white and nude wedge heels (via TMZ).
Ye and Censori entered a waiting Mercedes-Maybach and were driven off. Later, he performed at GelreDome Stadium in Arnhem, the Netherlands, for his birthday.
Ye and Australian architectural designer Bianca Censori moved from working together at Yeezy to dating, and quietly married in December 2022. Since then, their relationship has included frequent travel, bold fashion choices, and reports of breakups followed by reconciliations.
