Kanye West breaks silence on ‘rumour’ he and wife Bianca Censori were booted from Grammys after nude stunt
Kanye West, 47, has furiously denied claims that he and his wife Bianca Censori, 30, were ejected from Sunday night’s Grammy Awards over her controversial naked red carpet appearance.
The rapper hit back at rumours suggesting the couple were asked to leave the glitzy Los Angeles ceremony in an angry post directed at US broadcaster Don Lemon.
The shocking moment saw the Australian model and architect pose for photographers while West stood sternly, dressed in a demure all black outfit, next to her.
Just before the viral reveal, the rapper was interpreted by lip readers to tell Censori: “You’re making a scene now,” to which she nodded in agreement.
He then said: “Make a scene, I’ll say it’ll make so much sense,” before telling his wife to: “Drop it behind you and then turn.”
Shortly after this bold display, onlookers noticed the couple exiting the awards and getting into a waiting vehicle, which sparked initial speculation about their departure.
Soon after, speculation swirled that the pair had been removed from the event because of the stunt.
Entertainment Tonight had initially reported in a deleted post that the pair were “escorted out of the Grammys after showing up uninvited.”
Later, West took to social media to slam former CNN anchor Don Lemon, who he claimed was behind the rumours of their eviction.
Sharing a now-deleted image of Lemon, West wrote: “This the goofball that started the rumour that me and my wife got kicked out the Grammies 3 decades of innovating music and they always K***S like this.”
Soon after, Lemon hit back in a furious Instagram video where he rebuked West’s comments.
“First of all, Kanye, Ye — whatever your name is — I did not start a rumour about you being kicked out of the Grammys,” he began.
“I actually corrected it. I saw someone on your team who asked me to correct it because it had been reported everywhere.
“So first of all, get your s**t straight. And you, of all people, calling me a c**n. That ‘Make America Great Again’ hat must be too tight on your head,” the presenter slammed.
Lemon was referencing West’s support for President Donald Trump and when he was pictured wearing the iconic headgear while visiting the White House during Trump’s first term.
