Kanye West
Controversies continue to swirl around American rapper Kanye West. Things have not yet settled between Kanye and the sportswear brand Adidas. A month after the brand cut ties with West, a group of former employees sent an open letter to the shoe company, alleging that it turned a blind eye to bullying and inappropriate behaviour from the rapper.
Many former staffers recalled his obsession with porn, several of them detailing stories where West, 45, would show staffers or job candidates porn on his phone. The report also states that there were allegedly several occasions where West showed staffers and a job candidate intimate photos and videos of his then-wife, Kim Kardashian.

During a job interview in 2018, West showed an explicit image of Kardashian to one young creative professional. The rapper allegedly told him, "My wife just sent me this." The Rolling Stone expose includes stories of West belittling or bullying staffers and the open letter to the brand addresses both the porn and the bullying. The magazine's report ends with an excerpt from the letter asking for a public apology to the Yeezy team for West's "terrorizing behaviour."
