Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori made an appearance at the 67th Grammy Awards. On the Grammys 2025 red carpet, Bianca shocked people by taking off her coat to reveal a fully translucent slip dress that exposed her entire body. Given that she was basically naked, the couple’s red carpet appearance garnered a lot of criticism and even sparked (false) rumors that Ye, 47, and his wife Bianca, 30, were kicked out of the Grammys.

Ye was fully clothed while his wife was naked on the red carpet.
During their red carpet appearance, Ye sported an all-black outfit. Initially, Bianca wore a long fur coat, but she later removed it. Ye posted several images of Bianca’s naked Grammys look on Instagram before deleting them. In the comments, several people called the rapper out for sharing nude photos of his wife publicly. Others urged him to consider his daughters and how they would feel if they saw those photos of their stepmom.
“Kanye having two young impressionable daughters literally means nothing to him,” one person wrote on X. “He’s disgusting.”
After deleting the photos of his wife, Ye posted a photo of Kendrick Lamar.
So weird how Kanye never wants to be naked.

On Instagram, Ye shared a photo of Kendrick holding the five Grammys he won at Sunday night’s awards. However, fans and critics still used the post to call the rapper out for “exploiting” his wife Bianca.
“Man bro I love you and you rarely disappoint me bro but even if she consents to it your exploiting your wife unc you are better than this and you have a daughter bro,” one person commented on the post.

“Kendrick wouldnt want his wife to be naked on the Grammys,” another person suggested. A third Instagram user wrote, “STOP ABUSING BIANCA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Ye was reportedly trying to recreate one of his album covers.
Bianca wore almost nothing on the cover of Ye’s “Vultures 1” album. In the album art, Ye faced the camera, while Bianca was turned away from it — much like when they posed on the red carpet. Per Page Six, the couple’s controversial Grammys appearance was reportedly an attempt to recreate that album cover.
On social media, however, many people insisted that attributing Bianca’s nude look to Ye’s “artistic vision” was a way of downplaying or even ignoring what it actually seemed to be. “Kanye West is being an abuser on Main,” one person wrote on X. “He is forcing that woman to be naked in front of everybody under the guise of an artistic vision, but it’s really control and people need to understand what that is.” Another person pointed out that Bianca looked “terrified.”
A third X user referred to it as “bullying.” “I have no objection to the beauty of a woman’s naked body but I strongly object to this. She looks frightened, controlled,” they wrote.
I won't repost the vid with Kanye West and his naked wife Bianca Censori. I don't want to encourage it, augment its ratings. It looks to me like bullying. I have no objection to the beauty of a woman's naked body but I strongly object to this. She looks frightened, controlled.

Others pointed out that Kanye is always “parading” his wife around to attract attention. “So weird how Kanye never wants to be naked,” one person wrote on X. Commenting on Ye’s Instagram post, another person asked, “Kanye will you be naked for the next grammys?”
