Adidas is investigating accusations made by staff relating to the conduct of the musician Ye during his partnership with the sportswear brand and the response of senior company figures, CNBC’s Jenni Read reports. It follows a Rolling Stone article published last week with anonymous allegations that Ye showed pornographic and sexualized material to Yeezy staff during meetings and made sexualized remarks to female staff. Adidas said in a statement "It is currently not clear whether the accusations made in an anonymous letter are true. However, we take these allegations very seriously and have taken the decision to launch an independent investigation of the matter immediately to address the allegations." Reference Link
