Kanye West’s former trainer Harley Pasternak calls security on rapper in Dubai amid stalking fears

Kanye West’s former trainer Harley Pasternak called security on the “Donda” rapper after the pair had an awkward run-in at a hotel in Dubai.

Despite reports that West believed Pasternak was stalking him around the city, insiders told Pvnew Wednesday that it was actually the fitness instructor who felt threatened by the encounter.

A source with direct knowledge says the former friends were both at Atlantis The Royal Dubai resort on Monday evening when they came face to face.

The source alleges that Pasternak was making a dinner reservation at the concierge desk when one of West’s security guards came up and asked him to identify himself.

West then appeared on the other side of the security guard and went in to give the trainer a hug, which he immediately shot down and told West to “get away” from him.

We’re told the hotel worker assisting Pasternak then asked the trainer if he felt “unsafe” and needed security.

Yet when Pasternak told West he had 60 seconds to leave before things escalated, the controversial rapper started taking photos and videos of his former fitness coach — which were obtained by TMZ.

It wasn’t until West heard Pasternak tell the hotel staff, in French, that he wished for security to be called that the “Jesus Walks” rapper finally fled.

After the confrontation was over, the concierge apparently asked the “physically shaken” exercise instructor if he was “okay,” to which he replied, “That guy is bats—t crazy. I want nothing to do with him.”

Pvnew has reached out to reps for both for comment but we did not immediately hear back.

West and Pasternak have a very rocky history stemming back to 2016 when the trainer called the police and paramedics on the rapper after he allegedly started behaving erratically during a workout. West was later hospitalized for the temporary psychosis.

The incident was brought back up again in 2022 after West leaked alleged texts from Pasternak threatening to get him “institutionalized again” amid the Grammy winner’s antisemitic tirades.

West shared the texts purportedly sent by Pasternak, who is Jewish, on Twitter at the time.

While the trainer began the alleged message by offering to sit down and have a “loving, open conversation” with West, his tone quickly changed.

“Second option, I have you institutionalized again where they medicate the crap out of you, and you go back to Zombieland forever. Play date with the kids just won’t be the same,” the message continued.

While it’s unclear exactly when the pair’s relationship soured, West’s team told TMZ Wednesday that it was actually the Yeezy CEO who felty uncomfortable with Pasternak being around.

The father of four is reportedly in Dubai to celebrate Thanksgiving with his children.

Another insider told the Daily Mail this week that West found Pasternak’s presence at the same hotel “extremely suspect” and was “very concerned” about “his motives and intentions.”

“This is the man who threatened to ‘drug Ye to Zombieland.’ Why has he suddenly shown up here?” they said.

However, sources told TMZ that Pasternak is overseas for business as he owns more than a dozen gyms in the Middle East — specifically Dubai.
