Kanye West and Bianca Censori make shocking Grammys entrance with daring naked red carpet look

The 2025 Grammys red carpet had just been open for about 20 minutes when Kanye West and his wife, Bianca Censori, produced the inappropriate moment that fans would remember long after the program is over.

When the couple initially came onto the carpet, Censori was dressed in a high-necked fur coat (real or imitation), which she clutched together in front. According to The Hollywood Reporter's red carpet coverage, Censori dropped her coat to reveal an exceedingly sheer minidress in an open, nude-toned mesh with seemingly no underwear within. Extra security measures were immediately implemented, and photographers were asked to step back six inches. The photographers had already gone silent as the couple arrived, making it all the easier to hear one lady photographer say, "What a reveal."

West was already facing backlash over messages he posted on X on Saturday, one of which included a gramophone (the emblem of the Grammy award) and the caption, "Thank you to the Grammies [sic] for nominating Carnival." On Instagram, West appeared to unfollow everyone but Taylor Swift, the latest in a troubling history that began at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards, when the rapper interrupted Swift's victory speech with a diatribe about how Beyoncé should have been the genuine winner.

West and Ty Dolla Sign, who comprise the hip-hop duo ¥$, are nominated for best rap song at the 2025 Grammys for their song "Carnival".

While West and Censori have made it a habit in recent years to create attention-grabbing moments at various events, their appearance at the 2025 Grammys feels highly inappropriate in light of the industry's desire to focus as much attention as possible on the victims of the Los Angeles wildfires and the fundraising efforts to assist those victims. Other questions arise. Is Censori's flagrant exhibitionism on the red carpet even allowed, considering public-indecency laws?

Section 314 of the California Penal Code prohibits displaying one's genitals or nude body in public or in any environment where others may be offended or upset. A first offense is a misdemeanor punishable by up to a $1,000 fine and/or six months in county prison. Prosecutors would consider the following mitigating factors: if the exposing conduct was purposeful and obscene; whether it was intended to offend others; and whether it occurred in a public location.
