Model, Jenn An is suing Kanye West and Universal Music Group for alleged gender-motivated violence, as reported by TMZ.
Jenn An, who was a contestant on cycle 13 of
“America’s Next Top Model,”
has filed a federal lawsuit against West. She claims that during a video shoot in 2010, Kanye singled her out from a group of girls, and things took a horrible turn.
“Give me the Asian girl,”
she claims he said.
The shoot was for La Roux’s
“In For the Kill”
music video. According to documents obtained by TMZ, West picked Jenn because of her revealing lingerie, telling her,
“That’s why I chose you.”
During the filming, Jenn claims that Kanye began to strangle her with both hands and then
smothered”
her face with his hands. He then
“rammed several fingers down her throat, continuously moved them in and out, and gagged her to emulate forced oral sex,”
the lawsuit claims.
Jennifer says this lasted for over a minute. She said Ye screamed,
“This is art. This is f**king art. I am like Picasso.”
Kanye had only featured on the remix of La Roux’s song
“In For the Kill.”
Jenn claims that La Roux later told a friend she had witnessed some
“upsetting, unsettling”
behavior during the shoot.
The scene never made it into the final cut, as the music videos for the song available online do not include Ye or Jenn. In the suit, she alleges the record label and other
“high-profile figures”
in the business tried keeping the incident under wraps.
