The accusations against Kanye \u2018Ye\u2019 West<\/a><\/strong> continue, with a model now accusing him of physical harm.<\/p>\n Jennifer An, a former contestant on \u201cAmerica\u2019s Next Top Model,\u201d recently recounted her alleged experience with the rapper in a new interview.<\/p>\n The allegations of choking come amid a series of shocking claims against Kanye West, who is legally known as Ye.<\/p>\n ZUMAPRESS.com \/ MEGA<\/p>\n An did not hold back when recounting her experience with Ye on the set of a music video in 2010. The rapper reportedly made a cameo appearance in the music video, where he allegedly choked An and stuck his fingers in her mouth to simulate oral sex.<\/p>\n According to the model, she was 24 when the incident occurred, noting that she had been hired to appear in the music video for La Roux\u2019s hit song \u201cIn For The Kill.\u201d An stressed that she did not know Ye would be a part of the production until the last minute.<\/p>\n An told BBC\u2019s \u201cFame Under Fire\u201d podcast<\/a> that things took a turn for the worse when she arrived for the shoot at the Chelsea Hotel in New York. The filming for the music video was allegedly mid-shoot when the crew members suddenly stopped work to prepare for Ye\u2019s arrival.<\/p>\n Thecelebrityfinder\/MEGA<\/p>\n An claimed the models for the music video were arranged to welcome Ye, recalling that they \u201cwere lined up in the hallway.\u201d Then the Hip-Hop star walked in and \u201cchose three girls to be in the scene with him,\u201d including An.<\/p>\n The model accused Ye of making things difficult during filming, noting he \u201ccouldn\u2019t remember his lines\u201d and eventually pushed to shoot a different scene. He pulled a chair in front of the camera and positioned himself on a chair behind the camera.<\/p>\n An stressed that she was given no direction and \u201cwas just told to sit\u201d in the empty chair Ye had placed before the camera. She recalled getting choked with both of Ye\u2019s hands before he shoved his fingers down her throat, leaving her feeling \u201csuffocated, unsure, and scared.\u201d<\/p>\n SETC \/ MEGA<\/p>\n An added that no one on the set intervened as Ye choked her, claiming he not only stuck his fingers down her throat but smeared her makeup \u201cin a way that just felt wrong.\u201d She argued that she couldn\u2019t fight back because she had been petrified of losing her job.<\/p>\n According to the model, Ye allegedly \u201cyelled something like, \u2018this is art, I\u2019m Picasso’\u201d after he was done. An eventually tried to seek justice against Ye in 2024 when she filed a civil lawsuit under New York City\u2019s Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Act.<\/p>\n Ye fired back by trying to get the lawsuit dismissed early this year, with his attorneys arguing that the First Amendment should protect him. They claimed Ye\u2019s behavior was an \u201cintense and provocative theatrical performance\u201d serving as an homage to \u201cAmerican Psycho.\u201d<\/p>\n Thecelebrityfinder\/MEGA<\/p>\n An isn\u2019t the first woman to file a lawsuit against Ye, as his former assistant similarly sued him in 2024. The Blast<\/a> covered the story last July, reporting that Lauren Pisciotta had updated her allegations against Ye, adding claims of sexual assault.<\/p>\n The updated allegations also included sexual battery, sex trafficking, false imprisonment, stalking, and more scathing crimes. Pisciotta claimed she had been abused during her time as Ye\u2019s assistant, detailing several alleged incidents in the lawsuit.<\/p>\n One alleged incident claimed that Ye was masturbating while touching her private parts, and another claimed that he allegedly forced Pisciotta to have oral sex. The former assistant\u2019s tales of horror continue, with Ye allegedly offering her as a sex gift to someone because he wished to get intimate with the person\u2019s partner.<\/p>\n Xavier Collin\/Image Press Agency \/ MEGA<\/p>\n Women weren\u2019t the only ones suing Ye, with The Blast<\/a> reporting in April that a man had filed a lawsuit under the alias John Doe. The plaintiff accused Ye of battery and infliction of emotional distress over an alleged incident that occurred in April 2025.<\/p>\n According to the lawsuit, the man had been at a table inside Chateau Marmont when he punched him out of nowhere. The plaintiff recalled losing consciousness after hitting his head on the ground, with Ye allegedly punching him as he lay unconscious.<\/p>\n The man stressed that the attack was unprovoked, but Ye later accused him of behaving inappropriately towards a woman in his group. The plaintiff lamented suffering emotional distress from the false allegations, with his pain worsening when Ye made those public.<\/p>\n The Kanye West Allegedly Defends Choking Model: \u2018This Is Art\u2019<\/a> first appeared on The Blast<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The accusations against Kanye \u2018Ye\u2019 West continue, with a model now accusing him of physical harm.
