Kanye West and Bianca Censori’s ‘utterly unacceptable’ Grammys 2025 stunt may cost him $20M Tokyo concert deal: report
Kanye West and Bianca Censori’s shocking antics at the 2025 Grammy Awards may cost him a $20 million international concert deal.
According to the Daily Mail, the rapper was slated to perform two shows at the Tokyo Dome in May, but after his wife bared all on the red carpet at Los Angeles’ Crypto.com Arena Sunday night, those financing the gigs are strongly reconsidering.
“The investors in Japan who are backing the concerts are extremely upset by this. It is highly likely that they will pull the funding for the shows,” a local source told the Daily Mail Monday, calling the “stunt” — which “has been greeted with horror in Japan” — “creepy beyond belief.”
The source explained that the country is currently experiencing “a cultural awakening about women’s rights,” noting that “what he did is being seen as an act of coercive control, which is utterly unacceptable.”
“He has completely culturally misjudged Japan,” the source continued. “He has greatly misjudged the tolerance of the Japanese people toward these activities. He’s just not welcome anymore.”
The source feels “Kanye is just f–king up every opportunity that comes to him” and thinks “this will be a big blow for him because he has been living in Japan for around a year now, almost full time.”
Reps for West did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
For music’s biggest night, the musician-turned-fashion designer, 47, wore his typical all-black outfit with sunglasses and a diamond chain, while Censori — who went from being his employee to his muse to his spouse — arrived in a black floor-length fur coat.
While posing for photographers, however, the 30-year-old turned around and dropped her coat, exposing her entire butt in a completely sheer minidress.
A lip reader told the Daily Mail that West encouraged Censori to “make a scene.”
“Drop it behind you and then turn,” he supposedly demanded before she disrobed.
She then turned back around and put everything on display, as she was not wearing any undergarments.
Page Six was told the couple was attempting to recreate West’s “Vultures 1” album cover artwork, which shows the Australia native standing in nothing but boots while a piece of fabric partially covers her backside.
After the jaw-dropping display on the Grammys red carpet, we were told that police officers escorted the pair out of the event.
But that didn’t stop the duo from fanning the flames of their wardrobe scandal, as Censori later showed up to an afterparty in a black see-through thong bodysuit.
West married her in December 2022, just one month after finalizing his divorce from Kim Kardashian, with whom he shares four children.
