Kanye West faces lawsuit from former security guard over unpaid wages in Malibu

Kanye West is being sued by Jonathan Monroe, a former security guard, for unpaid wages. Monroe claims he worked at West's Malibu mansion from August to October 2021, earning $30 an hour, but was never paid for his hours. Monroe alleges he worked between 36 to 50 hours a week and was fired after complaining about the lack of payment. He has not received any wages since his termination nearly three years ago. The lawsuit seeks Monroe's unpaid wages, interest, and punitive damages. Kanye recently sold the Malibu property for $21 million after abandoning a construction project.
