A former Yeezy intern is in hot water — to the tune of $500,000.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Kanye’s fashion brand is suing their summer intern, Ryan Inwards, for breaking an NDA that includes a liquidated damages clause he might have to pay the tune of half a million dollars. A filing today in the LA County Superior Court (January 15) cited the clause, a price tag on “contractual breaches” that let employees know the terms up front in hopes of total compliance.

Yeezy’s suit states that Inwards shared images on Instagram that were for “nonpublic” and still hasn’t removed them even after being with hit multiple cease and desist letters. An account on Instagram with the name Ryan Inwards currently shows no posts, so it’s safe to say the photos have been removed now — but it might be too little too late. Not only is Yeezy enforcing the initial $500K clause, they’re also suing for punitive damages and have accused Inwards of “acting maliciously.” They’ve also filed for an injunction that forces Inwards to turn over any images and bans any future posts.

I’ve had internships go wrong before, but this has to be a new level. Here’s hoping Ryan can figure out a way to make things right with Yeezy, before he ends up immortalized in song right alongside the cousin who stole Kanye’s laptop.

Ava Valianti turns self-doubt into art with “Laugh Track”

In her new single, “Laugh Track,” Ava Valianti takes us on a peculiar journey through her thoughts and feelings, which many can connect to. With a mix of dark humor and raw honesty, Ava shares her experience of feeling like life is more of a series of awkward moments rather than a smooth story where she’s the star.

Drawing inspiration from movies and shows that explore deep emotions, like The Truman Show and How I Met Your Mother’s Ted Mosby, “Laugh Track” captures the unsettling feeling of always being on stage, even when nobody’s watching. It resounds with anyone who has sat alone and questioned whether the laughter around them is meant for them or at their expense.

The song combines deeper sounds with a light, catchy vibe, making its heavy themes approachable enough for dancing. Ava’s voice is strong and open, giving each line an authentic feeling that hits home.

“Laugh Track” is a stand-out because it embraces chaos. Ava doesn’t wrap up her insecurity and self-doubt in a tidy package. Instead, she celebrates the messiness of life and finds comfort in the imperfect characters we often see on TV and in ourselves. “Laugh Track” mirrors our experiences. Like the best comedy shows, it makes you laugh, feel uncomfortable, and reminds you that you’re not alone in your struggles.
