LOS ANGELES, California (KABC) — Ye, formally known as Kanye West, is set to appear in a downtown Los Angeles courtroom Friday. He’s being sued by a man who worked on his Malibu beach house renovations.
Ye’s wife, Bianca Censori, took the stand Thursday, with her testimony lasting all day.
The case revolves around Tony Saxon, a former employee who sued Ye, claiming he was hired as a project manager but was only paid once. He said that he was fired after seven weeks.
Saxon is suing for more than $1 million for alleged unpaid wages, dangerous working conditions and wrongful termination.
During questioning, Censori said she has degrees in architecture and in 2021 she was lead architect for Ye’s $57 million house. She added that she worked on it for a few weeks before Saxon came on board.
She was asked about the plans for the house and the changes. She said her role was to visualize plans, renderings and concepts that Ye had.
Saxon claimed that Ye’s plans for the property were constantly changing. He said Ye wanted all plumbing, wiring and other items removed.
Saxon claims he was severely injured and was later fired.
Ye is set to testify in court Friday.
