Rapper Kanye West's wife, Bianca Censori, appeared "as though she were a doll he'd brought along" and seemed uncomfortable after revealing her outfit at the Grammys, according to a leading body language expert.
Kanye, 47, and his second wife, 29-year-old Bianca, certainly made an impression on the red carpet on Sunday night as Bianca posed in a daringly transparent outfit.
Kanye, who has four young children with ex-wife Kim Kardashian, chose a more understated all-black ensemble of t-shirt, jeans, trainers and dark sunglasses. However, it was Bianca who drew attention when she removed her black fluffy coat to reveal a bold mesh slip dress that left little to the imagination.
Speaking exclusively to the Mirror, body language expert Judi James suggests that Bianca became "less confident and more fearful" once she had removed the coat. "Presumably this was sold to Bianca as her moment of peak fame, when she finally gets her world headlines for a totally nude effect look on the red carpet after walking the streets in various countries with Kanye in a series of barely-covered body suits," Judi explains when analysing the risqué images of Kanye and Bianca.
"With other stars consistently copying her sheer bodysuits it could have been a 'who dares wins' moment when she raised the 'shock' bar so high that she left other female stars looking like cowards."
She elaborates: "Kanye adopted a variety of poses here, some like a bodyguard, with his legs splayed and his hands folded in front of his torso; one that defined them as a couple, with his arm around her back and one where he retreated altogether to allow her the solo moment she might have craved, and there was one where he just gazed down at her as though she were a doll he'd brought along."
Observing Bianca's demeanour, Judi remarks: "Bianca's body language suggested changes too, from the more confident, aloof, runway model look as she first posed in the huge fur coat, to the moment she turned to bare all to the cameras. Her eye expression in particular changed to a wider-eye look that suggested her initial bravado might have secretly evaporated.
"It became a less confident and more fearful look and her poses slipped from her usual very adept model moves to a more awkward look. Her hands went from behind her back to some less than relaxed-looking placings on her hips and she gave the impression that she was more comfortable teasing the cameras while wrapped in the huge coat. Kanye seems to view a near naked Bianca as his professional achievement, standing watching and muttering to her as she unveils as though this is his award-worthy success."
Rumours swirled that Bianca and Kanye were swiftly asked to leave after their red carpet spectacle, with reports suggesting they were escorted out by police. However, it was later confirmed that the couple were not asked to leave.
Bianca's choice of outfit could potentially land her in trouble. According to California Penal Code 314(1), indecent exposure is defined as "when a person exposes his or her naked body or genitals in front of anyone who could be annoyed or offended by it."
The act must also be "wilful and lewd" to be classified as a crime.
To be found guilty, an individual must "intentionally expose your genitals or naked body; expose yourself in front of someone who might be offended or annoyed by it; intend to direct attention to yourself; and intend to sexually gratify yourself or offend someone else when you do it."

A lipreader has now revealed their peculiar interaction that took place before Bianca - who maintained a poker face throughout - dropped her coat. The pair were seen conversing on the red carpet in a now viral video posted to TikTok
According to Nicola Hickling, the founder and lead analyst at LipReader, West was instructing his wife to remove her coat and reveal all.
Hickling remarks that initially, Kanye complimented his wife with five words of approval, but the situation escalated shortly after. "You're making a scene now," Kanye remarked as photographers captured their entrance and Bianca responded with a silent nod.
Encouraged by Kanye's words, "Make a scene, I'll say it'll make so much sense," Bianca gave another agreeing nod. Then came Kanye's next instruction: "Drop it behind you and then turn, I got you."
Ready to proceed, "Alright let's go," said Bianca, as interpreted by the lip-reading expert.
