Photos and video obtained exclusively by show Pasternak, 49, on Monday in the lobby of a hotel where West is staying with his children – which a source described as “extremely suspicious.”
West, 46, was hospitalized in November 2016 after suffering a temporary psychosis at Pasternak’s West Hollywood home – reportedly caused by sleep deprivation and extreme dehydration following a flurry of Twitter postings containing frantic posts, political and personal insults his fans and canceled concerts.
West was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, but has claimed in the years since that he was “mentally misdiagnosed” and that Pasternak was supposedly to blame – leaked texts that Pasternak reportedly gave him in the wake of the anti-Semitic rant were later published musician sent in 2022.
An insider told about Pasternak: “We have great concerns about what this creepy agent is doing in Yes Hotel.”

In November 2022, West leaked alleged text messages from Pasternak in which his former employee reportedly threatened to have her “institutionalized again” if he didn’t have a “loving, open conversation” with the musician following the incident. was allowed to put together anti-Semitic insults against the musician.
Pasternak’s alleged texts say: “First, you and I sit down together and have a loving and open conversation, but you do not use any foul language, and everything discussed is based on facts and not some crazy thing from this stupid friend .” one of you told you or you saw it in a tweet.
‘Second option. I’ll have you sent back to an institution where you’ll be medicated and you’ll return to zombie land forever. “Playdates with the kids just won’t be the same.”

West then said based on the alleged messages that he was “mentally misdiagnosed” when diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2016
He said: “What should be obvious by now is that I was raised to stand up for my truth, regardless of the consequences.”
“So I’ll say it again: I was mentally misdiagnosed and almost drugged to make myself into a manageable, well-mannered celebrity.”
In 2016, West spent nine days in the Resnick Neuropsychiatric Unit at UCLA Medical Center recovering from temporary psychosis.
His 2018 album Ye, West appeared to confirm that he had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder after months of speculation.
Shortly afterward, Kanye explained in a radio interview that he had been diagnosed with a “mental illness” at the age of 39, calling it his “superpower.”
However, when speaking to Donald Trump in October 2018, the rapper claimed that he had been misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder and was just suffering from lack of sleep.
In 2017 — months after West’s hospitalization — Pasternak praised the musician’s health and fitness.
“I’ve been working with Kanye for 13 or 14 years,” said Pasternak, who has also trained Kim Kardashian, Jennifer Hudson, Lady Gaga, Megan Fox and Alicia Keys.
“He’s a really fit guy.” …Kanye is active. He trains. “He eats well and has a great family,” Pasternak added.
“But he is really a creative person. We took these walks and had great conversations about music and architecture.
Late last year, West saw his career implode after a series of anti-Semitic outbursts, including vowing to “put Jewish people to death.”
From October to December last year, West, who announced years ago that he had been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, spiraled into increasingly bizarre tirades.
Late last year: He saw his career implode after a series of anti-Semitic outbursts, including an interview with Alex Jones in which he said: “The Holocaust is not what happened.”
Earlier this month, West came under fire for rapping about having sex with a “Jewish bitch,” a year after Adidas ended its partnership with the rapper over his anti-Semitic outbursts.
To address the controversy, West, 46, reportedly raps that he “just fucked a Jewish bitch” and apparently wonders how he can be “anti-Semitic” on a track on his new album he recorded in Saudi Arabia .
Content creator @mansorash shared a snippet of the song on social media while vacationing in the Saudi desert near West’s location and recorded some of what is believed to be the song.
contacted a representative for West for comment.
In October 2022, shortly after the “Death Con 3” tweet, West told Piers Morgan that he only wanted to target certain Jews who had exploited him.
When Morgan argued that West’s comments were “just as racist as anything you’ve been through,” West responded, “That’s why I said it. ‘I fought fire with fire.’
In an interview with Alex Jones in early December, West praised Hitler for his “redemptive qualities,” claimed that “the Holocaust didn’t happen” and promoted the conspiracy theory that black people were the real Jews.
After his precipitous fall, West largely withdrew from the public eye for a while and then reemerged with a new woman named Bianca Censori.
Censori, the head of architecture at Yeezy, was quickly noticed for her striking physical resemblance to Kanye’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian.
In March of this year, West posted an eyebrow-raising Instagram caption, claiming, “Watching Jonah Hill on 21 Jump Street made me Jewish again.”
He added: “No one should convert anger towards one or two individuals into hatred towards millions of innocent people.”
The outlandish post concluded: “No Christian can be called an anti-Semite if they know that Jesus is Jewish. “Thanks Jonah Hill, I love you.”
Married again: After his precipitous fall from grace, West largely withdrew from the public eye for a while and then resurfaced with a new woman named Bianca Censori
He sparked another controversy over the summer when he bared his bum on a boat in Italy with Censori sandwiched between his legs.
This week, insiders told exclusively that Censori traveled without West to her home country of Australia, where her loved ones staged an “intervention” and warned her to wake up because of his “controlling ways.”
The rapper’s upcoming album is a collaboration with Ty Dolla $ign, who himself recently returned to the US from Saudi Arabia.
The album will be the first West has released since his career went up in flames and his billion-dollar fortune plummeted due to his anti-Semitism scandal.
West is the father of four children with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian: North (ten), Saint (seven), Chicago (five) and Psalm (four).
