Kanye West criticized as he seemingly reveals motive behind wife Bianca Censori's Grammys stunt in new post

Kanye West has taken to social media to suggest that his wife Bianca Censori was more talked about during her short time on the red carpet at the Grammys, than the award winners themselves.

On Sunday (February 2), the rap-mogul and his 30-year-old partner made headlines around the world following their appearance on the Grammys red carpet.

West - dressed in an all-black outfit paired with some sunglasses - whispered in his partner's ear as she turned her back to the paparazzi and slowly dropped her black fur coat to reveal a transparent mesh dress - with nothing underneath.

Shortly after, it was reported that they had left the awards ceremony - with reports circulating on social media claiming the pair had been 'kicked out'.

Although it was later confirmed that the pair left on their own accord.

Now, West has seemingly revealed his motive behind the move in a post on his Instagram.

West shared three pictures - two of Google Trends and one of Censori with her back to a camera at home - seemingly in a practice shot.

The first picture taken from Google Trends shows how 'Bianca Censori Grammys' was searched more than 'Grammy winners 2025'.

The second Google Trends screenshot shows how US residents have searched about what his wife did more than 'Beyoncé Grammys', 'Kendrick Lamar Grammys', 'Benson Boone', 'Chappell Roan' and 'Doechii' combined.

He's since faced criticism from fans as one person said: "Is she a social experiment to you?"

"U got daughters bruv," another mentioned.

While a third commented: "This ain't smtg to be proud of unc."

It comes as a source close to West told The Sun on Sunday that the rapper allegedly used the Grammys to celebrate 'art' through Censori.

"People have called this a stunt but to Ye this is his art," they said.

"He turned up, made headlines around the world and left. No one told him what to do and even if they had, he wouldn't have listened.

"Ye always planned to do the red carpet and leave - he'd never sit through the Grammys because it's so dull and boring."

Sources described Censori as a 'muse' for West, adding: "There’s no coercion involved. This is what Ye does, he makes a statement and the whole world talks about it."
