坎耶·维斯特在新的诉讼中被指控威胁要把学生关在笼子里
As it turns out, Kanye West may not be the best boss in the world. Trevor Phillips, a former employee of the rapper's Donda Academy and Yeezy fashion brand, filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles on Tuesday that accuses West of racism, homophobia, antisemitism, and harassment against both the school's students and employees like Phillips.
事实证明，坎耶·维斯特可能不是世界上最好的老板。特雷弗·菲利普斯是这位说唱歌手的Donda Academy和Yeezy时尚品牌的前雇员，周二在洛杉矶提起诉讼，指控韦斯特种族主义、同性恋恐惧症、反犹主义，并对学校的学生和菲利普斯这样的员工进行骚扰。
"From the start of Phillips’ tenure working at Yeezy and Donda, it was immediately apparent to him, and others, that Kanye treated the Black staff considerably worse than white employees," according to the lawsuit. "Even when class was in session, Kanye would scream and berate Black employees, while never even as much raising his tone at the white staff."
“从菲利普斯在Yeezy和Donda工作的一开始，他和其他人就立即意识到，坎耶对待黑人员工的态度比白人员工差得多，”诉讼称。“即使在上课的时候，坎耶也会尖叫和斥责黑人员工，而对白人员工却从来没有提高过语气。”
Phillips' lawsuit also alleges that the plaintiff saw West "spew forth hate, profess antisemitic tropes and lies, threaten the LGBTQ+ community, and even on one occasion, almost sexually stimulate himself." Phillips also allegedly witnessed West harassing Donda Academy students by threatening to shave their heads and lock them in a cage.
菲利普斯的诉讼还称，原告看到韦斯特“散布仇恨，宣扬反犹主义的言辞和谎言，威胁LGBTQ+社区，甚至有一次几乎对自己进行性刺激。”菲利普斯还声称目击了韦斯特骚扰东达学院的学生，威胁要剃掉他们的头发，并把他们关在笼子里。
Representatives for West did not immediately respond to Entertainment Weekly's request for comment.

Phillips was originally hired in 2022 to work at Yeezy, West's fashion brand, but was eventually directed to also work with Donda Academy, the Christian K-12 school founded by West earlier that year.
菲利普斯最初于2022年受聘于韦斯特的时尚品牌Yeezy，但最终又被安排到当年早些时候韦斯特创办的基督教K-12学校东达学院工作。
After West talked about how much he admired Nazi leader Adolf Hitler and hated Jewish people in December 2022, his business relationships with brands like Adidas collapsed, and "West's wealth nosedived," according to the lawsuit. With Yeezy's accounts frozen by Adidas, Phillips was paid with funds from Donda Academy and started working there as well.
根据诉讼，在韦斯特于2022年12月谈到他多么钦佩纳粹领导人阿道夫·希特勒并憎恨犹太人之后，他与阿迪达斯等品牌的商业关系破裂，“韦斯特的财富急剧下降”。由于Yeezy的账户被阿迪达斯冻结，菲利普斯得到了Donda Academy的资金，并开始在那里工作。
The lawsuit also details a few specific incidents of West's strange behavior. In one meeting with both Donda Academy staff and two students, the lawsuit claims that, "Kanye started to openly discuss how he only likes to date white women. Then addressing the two school children, Kanye told them that he wanted them to shave their heads and that he intended to put a jail at the school — and that they could be locked in cages. The staff quickly distracted the children, and escorted them out of the room."
该诉讼还详细说明了韦斯特奇怪行为的一些具体事件。诉讼称，在与唐达学院的工作人员和两名学生的一次会面中，“坎耶开始公开讨论他如何只喜欢和白人女性约会。然后，坎耶对两个学生说，他想让他们剃光头，他打算在学校里建一个监狱——他们可以被锁在笼子里。工作人员很快分散了孩子们的注意力，并把他们护送出了房间。”
Another incident detailed in the lawsuit involved West allegedly inviting Phillips to meet him alone at the Nobu Hotel in Los Angeles. When the two were by themselves in a hotel room, the lawsuit claims that West (dressed in the same black outfit that he wore during his 2022 interview with Alex Jones) spewed more antisemitic rants, saying “I hate Jewish people" and "Hitler was great," among other things.
诉讼中详述的另一件事是韦斯特据称邀请菲利普斯单独在洛杉矶Nobu酒店见面。诉讼称，当两人单独在酒店房间里时，韦斯特(穿着他在2022年接受亚历克斯·琼斯采访时穿的那套黑色衣服)发表了更多的反犹言论，说“我讨厌犹太人”、“希特勒很伟大”等。
The lawsuit also claims that he sexually harassed Phillips during this meeting, talking about porn and orgies while he moved his hands in a masturbatory motion. Fearful for his daughter and his younger brother (who were both students at Donda Academy) and reluctant to disappoint his mother, who also worked at Donda and helped get him the job with West, Phillips says that he stayed at the hotel with his boss until 1 a.m.
诉讼还称，他在这次会面中对菲利普斯进行了性骚扰，一边用手做手淫的动作，一边谈论色情和狂欢。菲利普斯担心自己的女儿和弟弟(他们都是东达学院的学生)，又不愿让他的母亲失望，他的母亲也在东达学院工作，并帮助他得到了韦斯特的工作。菲利普斯说，他和老板在酒店里呆到了凌晨1点。
Phillips alleges that he was repeatedly abused and humiliated in front of other employees and staff, and was never paid termination or severance after Donda Academy shut down in August 2023. West has since said he will reopen the school at some future date.
菲利普斯声称，他在其他员工面前多次受到虐待和羞辱，而且在2023年8月东达学院关闭后，他从未得到过解雇费或遣散费。韦斯特后来表示，他将在未来的某个时间重新开放这所学校。
