Kanye West and Bianca Censori’s Viral “Vultures 1” Tribute Divides Audiences at Music’s Biggest Night
The 2025 Grammy Awards red carpet became the epicenter of controversy Sunday night as Bianca Censori, wife of rapper Kanye West, stunned attendees and social media with a barely-there sheer gown, prompting her sister Angelina Censori to publicly weigh in on the polarizing fashion moment.
Sister’s Social Media Nod to “Daring” Display
Angelina Censori amplified the buzz by resharing footage on her Instagram Story of Bianca, 30, removing a fur coat to reveal a transparent dress beside West, 47, marking their first joint red carpet appearance since their December 2022 marriage.
Angelina also reposted paparazzi shots of Bianca’s backless reveal and endorsed West’s now-deleted Grammys post with a fire emoji, signaling familial support.
Breaking Down the Viral Moment
The Australian architect-turned-model paired the nude illusion gown with clear flip-flop heels and a slicked-back bun, while West opted for an all-black ensemble: a fitted tee, tailored trousers, oversized boots, and tinted sunglasses.
The couple’s coordinated style quickly drew comparisons to the cover art of West’s 2024 collaborative album Vultures 1, which featured Bianca in a similarly provocative sheer outfit.
A source exclusively told Page Six the stunt was a deliberate nod to the album’s artwork, calling it “a strategic, controversy-driven tribute.”
However, the spectacle took a tense turn when lip reader Nicola Hickling alleged to the Daily Mail that West instructed Bianca to “make a scene” and “drop [the coat] behind you and turn” before the reveal. Bianca reportedly replied, “All right, let’s go,” per Hickling’s analysis.
Mixed Reactions and Exit Drama
While the duo’s red carpet theatrics dominated social media trends, conflicting reports emerged about their Grammys exit. One insider claimed security escorted them out of Crypto.com Arena, while another source insisted they left voluntarily. “He walked the carpet, got in his car, and left—no drama,” the second source clarified.
West later praised Bianca on Instagram, calling her his “beautiful wife” and “best friend” while crediting her “Custom Couture Grammy dress.” The post has since garnered over 2 million likes, juxtaposed with heated debates online about the line between artistic expression and public appropriateness.
Why This Matters
The incident underscores West’s continued influence in merging music, fashion, and controversy, while Bianca’s transformation from Yeezy architect to headline-making muse raises questions about celebrity branding in the digital age. With Angelina Censori’s tacit endorsement, the family’s unified front hints at deeper strategic storytelling ahead of West’s rumored Vultures sequel.
