Kanye West was hit with a $1 million dollar lawsuit by the employees who participated in his 2019 opera, Nebuchadnezzar. According to documents obtained by Dazed via The Blast, West and Live Nation “failed to properly compensate the hair assistant and many dozens of other persons who performed services on the production, including the background actors, performing as audience members.”
The lawsuit continued by saying “the defendants oversaw, controlled and ran the production, and the aggrieved employees worked many hours on the production and were not timely paid for their work, or paid at all.” West hasn’t publicly responded to the lawsuit.
