The allegations in detail
She claims she's owed, 'unpaid wages, continuing wages, damages, civil penalties, statutory penalties and attorney's fees and costs.'
The worker added that Kanye and Live Nation, 'failed to properly compensate [her] and many dozens of other persons who performed services on the production, including the background actors, performing as audience members.'
