Kanye West didn't hold back as he savagely hit back at a woman who criticised his stunt with Bianca Censori at the Grammy Awards.
The Love Lockdown rapper, 47, and his wife Bianca, 30, shocked fans when they arrived on the red carpet on Sunday for a controversial stunt ahead of the awards show. Ye rocked an all-black outfit while his wife nervously posed in a black fur coat. After he whispered in her ear, she nodded before removing the coat to reveal a near-nude dress with no underwear.
Ye and Bianca's stunt infuriated fans, who took to social media to claim the star was always using his wife and humiliating her to get attention. This week, he took to Instagram to share a graph from Google's search trends as he looked up the difference between people's interest in his wife's appearance at the Grammy's and the winners of the actual awards show.
The graph showed there was more interest in search trends for Bianca's outfit than with the names of who won awards. Fans weren't impressed with him gloating about the stunt, with one woman slamming him: "You're using your wife's body to get relevant? That's sad." One particular comment struck a nerve with the star, causing him to go on a rampage on his page.

He screenshotted the comment and shared it to his grid, adding: "This is my favourite part [woman's username] Watch these comments get shut off quick." Ye also shared a screenshot of her profile, including her profile photo and bio - which showed she's a photographer and art director.
"Now watch this…" Ye wrote in the caption. He went through the effort of scrolling through her page before stopping at a video featuring women posing in lingerie for a photoshoot. Ye shared a number of nude or risqué photos from the photographer's page thinking he had a 'gotcha' moment against her. However, the snaps were simply from photoshoots.

"At a time when women's rights are under attack across the world, and conservative, misogynistic ideals are creeping back into politics and culture, this kind of imagery feels even more insidious. A woman is not an accessory, a statement piece, or an object for the male gaze. I actually feel sorry for her," the post read.
Meanwhile, on Ye's Instagram page, he was quick to delete a few of his screenshots and came back to his page to add a message he wrote in his notes app. "FOR CLARITY. FEBRUARY 4TH 2025," Ye said. "MY WIFE IS THE MOST GOOGLED PERSON ON THE PLANET CALLED EARTH." Fans tried to remind fans she was only most-searched in the world because of her outfit choice.
"Because she was naked on the red carpet bro," one bemused fan said and another added: "Cuz she was naked*." One user commented: "I don't think this is a flex." Not long after, he added: "WE BEAT THE GRAMMIES." The rapper's random rant backfired as the woman ended up gaining thousands of followers in a short amount of time.
Responding to his attacks, the woman took to her Stories to share a screenshot of his page and added: "Seriously Mr. West?" along with a laughing emoji. In another story, she also said: "And he is still not understanding the point of what I said... It's not all men but always one of them."
