The artist formerly known as Kanye West is back in the headlines again after another woman claimed that he sexually assaulted her in a professional environment.

Former America’s Next Top Model contestant, Jenn An, claims that the Vultures rapper choked and gagged her until she blacked out during a music video shoot. The alleged incident took place in 2010 during the filming of West and La Roux’s “In For The Kill” visuals. Jenn claims that the Chicago MC singled her out saying, “Give me the Asian girl” before assaulting her.

The lawsuit claims that West “rammed several fingers down her throat, continuously moved them in and out, and gagged her to emulate forced oral sex,” before exclaiming “this is art. This is f**king art. I am like Picasso.” The alleged scenes were not included in the final cut of the video as neither West nor Jenn appear in the versions posted online.

Jenn described the experience as “pornographic gagging/deep throat/BDSM fetishes” rather than a professional music video environment. She filed the suit against both Yeezy and Universal Music Group for gender-motivated violence.

Jenn was a contestant on Cycle 13 of ANTM and appeared in music videos after. However, the public hasn’t seen or heard much since her reality TV debut.

Kanye West Accusers Continue Coming Forward With Abuse & Misconduct Allegations

Kanye, on the other hand, has been keeping himself in the news for the alleged lewd behavior he has exposed professional colleagues to during his time at Adidas and elsewhere. Ye’s former project manager, Murphy Aficionado, claims that he was summoned by the rapper to a Beverly Hills hotel room in 2022 where he was forced to listen to a sexual encounter between West and wife, Bianca Censori.

Aficionado also claims that West wore a swastika shirt during the meeting and accused right-wing talking head, Candace Owens of being a “Jewish spy.” The lawsuit also alleges that Kanye showed nude photos of his ex-wife Kim Kardashian to his former employee that same day. Aficionado, who was fired last year, is suing the rapper for discrimination, hostile work environment, retaliation and failure to pay wages.

This week in politics, the vibes are messy, alarming, and straight-up confusing. From late night TV being snatched off the air to vaccine policies getting hijacked, it’s giving “WTF is going on?” Let’s break down the headlines everyone’s talking about inside. First Amendment on the Chopping Block Jimmy Kimmel’s late night show has been pulled from ABC, and Stephen Colbert’s show? Cancelled completely. The official line is murky, but the bigger picture is loud. Free speech is being tested under the Trump administration. While Trump once said he’d “honor” the First Amendment, recent moves suggest he’s working off a remix version that only benefits him. Case in point? The Guardian reports his $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times. A judge already tossed it out, saying Trump’s claims about “false content” violated federal rules. Still, the fact that these lawsuits and cancellations keep happening has people questioning the future of free expression in America. CDC Shake-Up Sparks Health Concerns Meanwhile, over at the CDC, things are getting political fast. Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has basically turned the agency upside down, firing all 17 members of the vaccine advisory committee and replacing them with appointees that include vaccine skeptics. On top of that, the CDC director is out, high-level staffers are resigning, and decisions about vaccine safety are suddenly more about politics than science. Public health leaders are calling this move dangerous, saying it dismantles independent oversight just when Americans need clarity most. According to California’s government website, they are one of the few states pushing back on the federal government’s stance. California, Washington, and Hawaii aren’t taking it lying down. The states have formed an alliance pushing back on the feds, promising to keep vaccine guidance rooted in science, safety, and transparency. Their health officers are reviewing guidelines from trusted medical groups like the AAP and ACOG to ensure communities still have access to clinically recommended vaccines.

After years of “will they, won’t they?” drama, Trump announced that he and Chinese Premier Xi Jinping approved a deal for TikTok’s U.S. operations. According to BBC, the plan reportedly hands control to a group of U.S. investors, sidestepping a shutdown. Trump called the call with Xi “productive” on Truth Social, and even, teased a face-to-face meetup at the APEC summit in South Korea this fall. From free speech battles to vaccine wars and TikTok drama, this week in politics has us all asking the same thing: WTFGO?
