Jason Lee says Lauren Pisciotta is a "great girl."

Jason Lee recently reflected on his time working with Kanye West and gave his thoughts on the rapper's former assistant, Lauren Pisciotta, who is suing him for alleged sexual harassment. Speaking with VladTV, Lee began by describing her as a "great girl" and praised her as being one of the best assistants he's ever met.

"She's really solid and she was super loyal to Ye. The thing that I hate about watching her go through what she's going through is she's super non-problematic," he said. From there, he explained how all aspects of West's business ran through her.

"I can say that I never witnessed that," Lee said of the harassment claims. "Every time I witnessed them together, it was professional, but she was-- think about this, his entire world was managed by this one person and all the craziness going on. So, if Meta was taking down his Instagram, I was dealing with her and Instagram to get the Instagram back. If the divorce attorneys wanted to track him down to talk about court with Kim, she had to facilitate all that. Accounting, photoshoots, she literally was the gatekeeper. So, I know she worked closely with him. I know that Bianca, his girl, lived in her apartment building and they used to be cool I believe. He would then go to her house while she was at her house. It became this really crazy relationship. But, I don't know. I didn't see Ye sexually harass her."
