Adidas launched an investigation due to the allegations that surfaced about Kanye West behaving improperly during meetings with employees of the company, in which he even allegedly forced them to watch pornography among other bullying conducts. The Rolling Stone magazine was the first to report the contents of the anonymous letter that was received by the company on Tuesday night, in which is alleged that Kanye West force Adidas employees to watch porn videos and look at sexually explicit photos of his wife Kim Kardashian, even his own sextapes. According to the letter Kanye also used other forms of intimidation, and oftenly targeted women, with members of the Yeezy team accusing Adidas leadership of being aware of West's "problematic behavior" and not doing anything to stop it. "We have been and continue to be actively engaged in conversations with our employees about the events that lead to our decision to end the partnership. They have our full support and as we're working through the details of the termination."
