Kanye West and Bianca Censori caused shockwaves at the 2025 Grammy Awards when Bianca walked the red carpet in a totally see-through dress
Kanye West and Bianca Censori shocked the world on Sunday night after the model and designer arrived at the 2025 Grammy Awards in a totally sheer dress to expose her nude body underneath.
Troubled rapper Kanye, 47, was heard whispering to his partner which prompted her to immediately remove her fur coat and reveal she’d arrived at the ceremony in a nude mesh dress without underwear.
Bianca, 30, slowly dropped her cover-up to flash her bare bum before spinning around to give stunned press photographers the full glimpse of her naked body.
The stunt went down so badly that there were reports the couple had been ‘escorted out’ of the music awards. While concerned fans watching the live stream from home also demanded the couple be reprimanded for their actions as they branded them ‘creepy and disturbing.’

A lipreader has now revealed their bizarre interaction that took place before Bianca – who kept a straight-face throughout – dropped her coat.
The pair were seen talking on the red carpet in a now viral video posted to TikTok. According to Nicola Hickling, the founder and lead analyst at LipReader, West was telling his wife to take off her coat and reveal all.
According to Hickling, Kanye gave his wife five words of praise before things took a turn. “You’re making a scene now,” Kanye tells Bianca as the photographers begin to snap their arrival. Bianca then silently nods her head.
Kanye continues to encourage her: “Make a scene, I’ll say it’ll make so much sense.” Bianca again nods her head in agreement. Then Kanye tells her: “Drop it behind you and then turn, I got you.”
“Alright let’s go,” Bianca tells him, according to the lip reading expert. Australian designer Bianca then drops her coat to reveal her naked body underneath.

According to California Penal Code 314(1), indecent exposure is defined as a person “expoising his or her naked body or genitals in front of anyone who could be annoyed or offended by it.” It also stipulates that the act must be “willful and lewd” to be considered a crime. To be found guilty, a person must “intentionally expose your genitals or naked body; expose yourself in front of someone who might be offended or annoyed by it; intend to direct attention to yourself; and intend to sexually gratify yourself or offend someone else when you do it.”
It wasn’t just the law that the pair were offending, social media was set alight with viewers’ stunned reaction to Bianca’s risqué get-up as the furore unfolded in real time on the live stream. One tweeter remarked: “Kanye and that lady should be arrested for that stunt on the red carpet…… #GRAMMYs.”

Another shared their exasperation at the nudity: “Every single time i have seen Kanye’s wife naked was against my will,” while a third quipped: “Kanye’s wife is fully naked…. does this event not have a dress code…? #GRAMMYs.”
Another enraged user slammed the pair, writing: “Kanye West and Bianca Censori at Grammys. Completely Disgusting. #Grammys #Kanye.”
Other fans were spotted the moment a young child was seen leaning in from the side of the red carpet to get a glimpse of Bianca’s outfit. One user said: “the fact that it’s okay for Bianca Censori and Kanye to do that in front of the child behind them in line….wow.”
The shocking red carpet scenes overshadowed the night where Beyonce made Grammy’s history by winning the top prize of album of the year, with the gong evading her four times. While performances came from many of the nominees, including stars such as Charli XCX, Chappell Roan, Billie Eilish, Janelle Monáe, Stevie Wonder, Lady Gaga, Chris Martin, Doechii, and Sabrina Carpenter.
The Los Angeles wildfires had put the likelihood of the event taking place up in the air. However, California governor Gavin Newsom gave the go ahead. The show adopted a reimagined format, including a toned-down red carpet – but that didn’t stop Kanye and Bianca.

While the duo became the talk of the ceremony, they did not stick around long. Just minutes after walking the red carpet at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, the two then got into their car and left.
On the ride out, Kanye took to social media to post about the stunt. “Custom Courture Grammy dress for the most beautiful woman ever,” Kanye captioned an image of Bianca’s dress on Instagram shortly after their Grammys appearance, adding “My best friend. My wife.”
Bianca also doubled down on the stunt – despite many fans expressing their concern – as she also returned to Instagram to share more nude snaps with Kanye at home. Bianca had deactivated her social media account in October amid reports she and Kanye had split and were headed toward divorce. However she returned to the site for the first time three months to share some snaps with the musician on Grammy night.
Following their swift exit, in the small hours of Monday morning Kanye and Bianca resurfaced to attend a wild Grammys afterparty. The pair continued their racy antics as they were spotted licking and groping each other on the dancefloor.

For her re-appearance, Biance switched into a mesh thong bodysuit, which did little to cover up her curves. Kanye appeared to get very handsy with his wife as he was spotted grabbing at her bum as they danced.
Kanye had been invited to the prestigious music event, after stepping back from the mainstream limelight in recent years, after being nominated in the category of Best Rap Song for his track Carnival.
Some fans had questioned if Kanye’s red carpet antics were an attempt to steal attention away from rival Kendrick Lamar. Kanye showed up to the bash despite losing out to Lamar for Best Rap Song – but stole all the headlines instead.
According to body language expert Judi James, Kanye acted like his wife’s ‘bodyguard’ as he watched over her and gave orders throughout their red carpet stunt.

Judi said: “Presumably this was sold to Bianca as her moment of peak fame, when she finally gets her world headlines for a totally nude effect look on the red carpet after walking the streets in various countries with Kanye in a series of barely-covered body suits,” Judi explains when analysing the X-rated images of Kanye and Bianca. “With other stars consistently copying her sheer bodysuits it could have been a ‘who dares wins’ moment when she raised the ‘shock’ bar so high that she left other female stars looking like cowards.”
She continues: “Kanye adopted a variety of poses here, some like a bodyguard, with his legs splayed and his hands folded in front of his torso; one that defined them as a couple, with his arm around her back and one where he retreated altogether to allow her the solo moment she might have craved, and there was one where he just gazed down at her as though she were a doll he’d brought along.”
Looking at Bianca in particular, Judi notes: “Bianca’s body language suggested changes too, from the more confident, aloof, runway model look as she first posed in the huge fur coat, to the moment she turned to bare all to the cameras. Her eye expression in particular changed to a wider-eye look that suggested her initial bravado might have secretly evaporated.
“It became a less confident and more fearful look and her poses slipped from her usual very adept model moves to a more awkward look. Her hands went from behind her back to some less than relaxed-looking placings on her hips and she gave the impression that she was more comfortable teasing the cameras while wrapped in the huge coat. Kanye seems to view a near naked Bianca as his professional achievement, standing watching and muttering to her as she unveils as though this is his award-worthy success.”

Kim first filed for divorce in 2021, completing their split in November 2022
Kanye and Bianca got together following the rapper’s split from Kim Kardashian in 2021. Bianca had previously worked as an employee of the musician.
Biance was born in Melbourne, one of three daughters born to Alexandra and Elia “Leo” Censori. Her paternal grandparents, native of Giulianova, Italy, immigrated to Australia with their five children, including Elia in 1960.
Censori has a bachelor’s and master’s degree in architecture from the University of Melbourne. Accomplished in her field, Bianca created the Nylons Jewellery brand after graduating from high school.
After meeting Kanye, Bianca was hired to be Head of Architecture at his Yeezy brand. Their working relationship blossomed before Kanye professed his love for her publicly with the release of Censori Overload – a song inspired by Bianca in 2022.
Months after Kanye’s divorce from Kim was finalised, he legally married Bianca in December 2022. Kanye and Bianca soon became renowned for their various attention-stealing stunts – with Bianca becoming the star’s ‘muse’ and parading around in outfits he had created.
Their biggest scandal came in 2023, when the pair were investigated by police in Italy over “acts contrary to public decency.” The duo were seen cavorting in Venice – Kanye with his pants pulled down and Bianca with her head in his lap – on board a boat in broad daylight.
The scenes caused mass outrage with locals crying for the pair to be permanently banned from the historic city and to face arrest.
Nevertheless, the displays continued. Kanye marked Bianca’s 29th birthday in January 2024 by declaring it would be the year she would wear ‘no pants.’
He posted: “Happy birthday to the most beautiful super bad iconic muse inspirational talented artist masters degree in architecture 140 IQ loving by my side everyday when half the world turned their backs on me and the most amazing step mom to our children I love you so much thank you for sharing your life with me.”
