Kanye West Sued for $1 Million Over
Unpaid ‘Nebuchadnezzar’ Wages.
Kanye West and Live Nation have reportedly
been named in a $1 million class-action lawsuit.
According to legal documents
obtained by The Blast, a group of workers
are taking legal action over “unpaid wages.” .
The lawsuit pertains to West’s
2019 opera, ‘Nebuchadnezzar,’ which was
held at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. .

The workers allege that West and
Live Nation “failed to properly compensate”
a number of staff members. .
The suit specifically names a hair
assistant and background actors who were
hired to pose as “audience members.”.
The aggrieved employees worked many
hours on the production and were not
timely paid for their work, or paid at all, via The Blast.
Live Nation is being included in the suit
because they “oversaw, controlled and ran the
production” and failed to provide pay stubs. .
West has not yet publicly
responded to the lawsuit.
