Kanye West made a music video shoot where he s***ally assaulted model Jenn An, who claims he made her gag and choked her until she blacked out.

Jenn, who appeared in cycle 13 of “America’s Next Top Model,” filed a federal lawsuit against Kanye, alleging the 2010 shoot for his and La Roux’s “In For the Kill” music video took a horrible turn after he picked her out of a lineup of women — saying, “Give me the Asian girl” — and then started filming a scene at NYC’s Chelsea Hotel which she found humiliating and dangerous.
She says she was only wearing lingerie, and Ye said, “That’s why I chose you” … and he had her sit in a chair across from him, and told the director to put the camera directly on Jenn.
The lawsuit then claims that Kanyes tarted strangling her with both hands, and then “smothered” her face with his hands … before he “rammed several fingers down her throat, continuously moved them in and out, and gagged her to emulate forced oral sëx.” Jennifer says this went on for more than a minute.

She claims Ye screamed, “This is art. This is f**king art. I am like Picasso.”:
To Jenn, the whole scene felt more like “po******hic gagging/deep th***/BDSM fetishes” … than a music video shoot. BTW, Kanye only appeared on the remix for “In For the Kill” — it’s a La Roux track — and Jenn claims La Roux later described the shoot to a friend by saying, she’d seen some “upsetting, unsettling” behavior.
She’s suing Kanye and Universal Music Group for gender-motivated violence.
