Renowned DJ and composer Paul Oakenfold, known for his work on the soundtrack of the movie Swordfish, is facing serious allegations of sexual harassment and workplace violations. The accusations were made by a former personal assistant, identified only as Jane Roe, in a lawsuit filed on Friday in LA Superior Court. The plaintiff claims that Oakenfold, along with two companies run by CEO Paul Stepanek, violated her employment rights. Seeking damages in excess of $25,000, the complaint alleges that Oakenfold exposed himself and masturbated in front of her on multiple occasions. When she reported the incident to management, she was presented with a nondisclosure agreement and allegedly threatened with firing. Despite eventually signing the NDA “under duress,” she was laid off in March 2023. We have reached out to Paul Stepanek and Paul Oakenfold for comment.
