Khloe Kardashian's personal assistant salary dispute
The personal assistant to Khloe Kardashian has a dispute with the reality star over unpaid wages. Here is yet another celebrity PA suing their former employer. There has been another dozen similar cases over the past decade.
Where many celebrities go wrong is they improperly classify a domestic staffing worker as an independent contractor, when that's actually illegal. An employer can't hire an assistant and work them unlimited hours just because they are getting a salary. The PA must have scheduled breaks and be paid overtime.

What's it like to be the personal assistant to Khloe Kardashian?
For the most part, the personal assistants who work for the Kardashians lead a pretty jet-set life. They are constantly on the move and flying around in private jets, but the hours are very long. While it does seem glamorous at times to be a celebrity's assistant, it can also be a grind.
As far as salary disputes go with the Kardashians, this is not the first time that former employees have accused the reality stars of long hours and low pay. Time will tell what happens with this lawsuit, which was filed by Matthew Manhard.
