What Did Bianca Censori's Friends, Who Were 'Extremely Concerned' About Her Behavior & Worried for Her, Say — Details

What Did Bianca Censori's Friends, Who Were 'Extremely Concerned' About Her Behavior & Worried for Her, Say — DetailsKanye West's wife, Bianca Censori, is once again in the spotlight for her unusual public behavior. The latest incident at the Grammy Awards is part of the pattern of behavior her friends previously staged an intervention over.

Bianca Censori, an Australian architect who married Kanye "Ye" West on January 13, 2023, recently raised concerns due to her behavior at Sunday's 67th Annual Grammy Awards. However, this isn't the first time her friends have expressed worry since she began dating the rapper.

Censori's past Concerning Behavior

In December 2022, when West released a song titled "Censori Overload," it marked the first indication that he and Censori were dating. On January 9, 2023, they fueled rumors further when they were spotted wearing gold rings during lunch in Beverly Hills.

News of their marriage began circulating, but one publication claimed the pair weren't officially married because they never obtained a marriage certificate. Observers also noted that Censori resembled her husband's ex, Kim Kardashian, from her facial features to her body shape.

After she "married" West, Censori cut her long brown hair and dyed it blonde. Her outfits gradually became more revealing, culminating in an outrageous nude catsuit and strange behavior in Italy.

In 2023, her friends expressed concern over her unusual behavior, insisting it was out of character and suspecting West's influence. The then-28-year-old's friends feared that the rapper, who was 46 at the time, was manipulating her.

They worried he had transformed her into a "radicalized" version of his ex-wife. The couple caused a scandal during their September 2023 trip to Italy when they were caught engaging in a risqué act during a boat taxi ride in Venice.

At the time, West allegedly exposed his bare backside in public, angering Italian locals. A police investigation was launched into their lewd conduct. Italian authorities identified the boat's driver and planned to question him about the incident.

Witnesses and photographers were also asked to surrender any images that had gone viral. A Venice police source stated, "There are standards of public decorum that have to be followed by tourists and locals alike and any breaches are severely punished."

The insider added, "The images of West with his trousers down while in a taxi as he and his partner crossed the lagoon were seen all over the globe." According to one of Censori's close friend, "Bianca is stuck and her friends are trying to save her, but no one can because of the blockades Kanye has put up [around her]."

The source continued, "Everyone is extremely concerned. This isn't who she is. She is an incredibly outspoken and lively person who is never one to keep her mouth shut. But she has no one right now, and it is scary."

Censori initially worked as a full-time architect student at DP Toscano Architects from July 2017 to June 2020. Since November 2020, she has served as Head of Architecture at her husband's company, YEEZY.

Netizens who read about the incident shared their opinions, with one person stating, "If I was her friend I [sic] too would be concerned. This does not look like a healthy relationship," while another noted, "This poor girl is in serious trouble."

Someone else remarked, "She looks totally uncomfortable full stop she needs to get away [sic]." A fourth person commented, "She needs to be rescued." Censori was first linked to West—a rapper, actor, businessman, and composer—in January 2023, months after his divorce from Kardashian was finalized.

While married to the "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star, West referred to her as his "muse" and influenced her fashion choices. Censori's friends worry he's doing the same to her, turning her into "almost like Kim 2.0."

A source, however, compared the two relationships, saying, "The difference is that when Kim was with Kanye he was respected in the fashion world. He has since lost this respect."

In October 2022, West's fall from grace began when he wore a White Lives Matter T-shirt at his YZY SZN 9 Paris fashion show. The following month, he made a series of antisemitic remarks on X, formerly known as Twitter.

These comments led to his billion-dollar partnerships with Gap and Adidas being terminated. A friend of Censori's claimed she entered the relationship fully aware of West's controversies. "Bianca knew what she was getting into when she started dating Kanye. But she found him charming," the friend said.

During their Italian trip, the architect—who collaborated with West on 2023's "This Is Ye" and appeared on "Dish Nation" for five episodes from 2023 to 2024—appeared somber, often keeping her head down. Strange behavior between Censori and her husband has since continued.

West's Alleged Controlling Behavior

Censori's friends fear West's manipulation has persisted, with his actions in January 2024 further highlighting his alleged "controlling" behavior. Her loved ones attempted an intervention regarding the rapper's "controlling ways" but failed to reach her.

After allegedly marrying West, the architect disappeared from social media. The only trace is an unconfirmed Facebook account with a single profile picture uploaded on October 26, 2021, with no activity since.

It appears the rapper has influenced his wife's stance on social media. An insider explained, "Bianca has always had social media and she was active on it – until she married Kanye."

The source added, "He doesn't want her to have it because he thinks it will hurt her if she reads the nasty things that people say." The person continued, "He convinced her that, since she is a star now, she has to remain a mystery and it is creepy to those who know her as it feels like another form of control."

Censori's friends also disapproved of him posting racy images of his wife on Instagram, despite his alleged claims that she needs protection. The insider said the rapper was showcasing his wife's nakedness while controlling her narrative.

"It is disturbing, and by shutting her off from the world he is causing her to become more and more isolated," the source said. Her friends are shocked that the assertive architect is complying with her husband's demands.

Censori's friends believed her strong personality would have resisted West's alleged control, but it seems to have faded. The insider claimed, "She is wearing what he wants, going where he wants and doing what he wants because she really has no other choice."

The source added, "She went from being his designer to his wife, which is unfortunately, not a paid position. She's trapped." In October 2023, it was alleged that the rapper instructed Censori to "never [to] speak."

He has reportedly imposed strict rules on her, including specific foods she can eat, what to wear, and exercising regularly—even though he doesn't follow the same regimen. Sources claimed the architect has "no mind of her own anymore" and "obeys" her husband because he's convinced her they have "royal" status.

The latest incident involving the couple took place at the Grammys.

West's Alleged Publicity Stunt

Some are calling Censori's nearly nude appearance on the Grammy Awards red carpet, where she wore a sheer mini dress, a publicity stunt. Sources revealed that someone approached the 47-year-old rapper and the 30-year-old architect shortly after she dropped her black fur coat.

When the couple arrived on the red carpet, they appeared to have a tense conversation. Nicola Hickling, founder and lead analyst at LipReader, revealed that West told his wife to take off her coat and reveal all.

Hickling said that at one point, the rapper appeared to tell Censori, "You're making a scene now," prompting her to nod. The lip reader noted West then said, "Make a scene, I'll say it'll make so much sense."

His wife nodded again before he instructed, "Drop it behind you and then turn, I got you." Hickling believes Censori responded, "Alright, let's go." At one point, West whispered something to her, which the lip reader translated as, "I’ll tell 'em you're on fire tonight, babe."

The architect's outfit provided minimal coverage as she posed for photographers beside her fully-dressed husband, who wore all black. Insiders worried that CBS, the network airing the awards ceremony, could face fines from advertisers due to Censori's outfit.

A source described the scene, "Everyone looked at them like they were crazy and the word is that he tried to create a major publicity stunt because he is worried he isn't the center of attention anymore."

"The organizers were informed about her outfit minutes after she got on the red carpet and sent someone to tell his team that they had to go because they could have been hit with massive issues if they pulled a stunt like this on air," the insider continued.

After seeing a clip of the incident, one Facebook user declared, "He humiliates her," while another added, "Omg he has degraded her so much." An upset commenter asked, "Why the hell doesn't someone stop him from doing this to her??? Look at her face. She is not smiling....she's not enjoying the moment."

Someone else complained, "She's like a robot under his controlling command!" Kanye West reportedly felt "upset" that he didn't get to cause more disruption inside the venue after being asked to leave. He and his wife exited quickly after the incident, although another source claimed the couple left of their own accord.
