Elizabeth Wagmeister Senior Correspondent A paparazzi photographer is suing Ye — the musician formerly known as Kanye West — for assault, battery and negligence after he was caught on-camera grabbing her phone and throwing it into the street. The photographer, Nichol Lechmanik, says she was just doing her job as a celebrity photojournalist when she was capturing content of Ye. “He reached into my car as if he were going to hit me, he grabbed my phone out of my hand and then angrily threw it into the street,” Lechmanik said on Thursday during a press conference. “He caused so much fear that I have not been the same since.”
Lechmanik filed a lawsuit this week with the Ventura County Superior Court near Los Angeles, Calif., which has been obtained by Variety.
The freelance photographer previously called 911 and filed a police report after the incident. Following an investigation, earlier this year, the Ventura County District Attorney’s Office said Lechmanik declined to press charges against Ye. But now, in her lawsuit, the paparazzo is seeking damages, claiming she sustained “great mental and emotional pain” and has been prevented from doing her job, therefore suffering from “lost earnings.” The suit says Ye’s conduct was “willful, wanton and malicious.” The incident occurred on January 27, 2023, when Ye was outside of a sports academy in Ventura County where he was attending his daughter’s basketball game. His ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, was also at the game. According to the lawsuit, after Lechmanik took photos of Kardashian entering the sports academy, she noticed Ye outside of his vehicle “angrily confronting” another photographer on the street and started filming the alleged incident from her cell phone. “Given

the cloud of Canadian wildfire smoke while my entire head was wrapped in a layer of black tulle — with my shoulders and elbows pinned to my sides by a massively exaggerated upper-body collar and my hands sheathed in nylon stockings — was no walk in the park.And as I strutted through the city streets in the getup, repeatedly overhearing “What the f- – k?,” and “Oh my god!,” from wide-eyed passersby, I thought to myself: “It’s freakin’ hard being Kanye West’s wife.”The “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” rapper’s new bride, Bianca Censori, 28, inspired the look when she sported a similarly eye-popping ensemble to a church service in Los Angeles Sunday alongside Kanye, 46.Censori — a Melbourne native who works as the “Head of Architecture” at her hubby’s sportswear line YEEZY, according to her LinkedIn — caused an online uproar in the bizarre, all-black bodycon outfit, inspired by COMME des GARÇONS.Her little number featured a huge cushioned sphere that encircled her chest and shoulders, covering two-thirds of her face and a sheer body glove that encased her entire frame, including her arms and platinum blond pixie cut.

Gap is suing its former business partner Kanye West over alterations that were made to an LA building it rented in 2021 and 2022, that building having been used – it seems – as a place to sell the Yeezy products that were created by the rapper in collaboration with the retailer.According to a lawsuit filed last month, it was West’s team that instigated the alterations, putting Gap in breach of its agreement with the building’s owner.According to the New York Post, the alterations included “erecting an exterior ramp in the east side parking lot; installing a tunnel in the lot; removing ceiling lights; building a wall; and nixing three bathrooms”.The building’s owner sued Gap over the alterations last year, seeking to hold the retailer responsible for the costs of restoring the property back to how it was prior to West’s meddling.
