In the memories of friends back home, Bianca Censori is a smart, cheerful and energetic girl, different from the image of the current controversial wife of rapper Kanye West.

Bianca Censori, who recently shocked the Grammy Awards by appearing almost naked , used to be a hot girl in her hometown of Victoria, Australia. She came from a wealthy family and attended high school at the prestigious private school Carey Baptist Grammar in Kew, Melbourne.

A friend told Dailymail Australia that Bianca was always sociable in her private school circle, with many close male and female friends. Another classmate said Bianca, now 30, was part of a popular group of girls but got along with everyone. “She was the type of person who made friends with everyone. Bianca was never intimidating. I think people would be surprised at how smart she was,” the friend said.

After graduating from high school in 2012 with high marks, Bianca Censori studied Architecture at the University of Melbourne and obtained her bachelor’s degree in 2017. She graduated and worked for a while before returning to complete her master’s degree in Architecture from 2019 to 2020.

A childhood friend revealed that from childhood to adulthood, Bianca always excelled in both fun activities, studies and work. “She always loved to party and never missed social events, such as going to nightclubs or attending the Spring Racing Carnival. I was not surprised that she worked for Kanye West’s Yeezy company. She was always stylish and pushed the boundaries in the fashion industry. At one point, she started her own jewelry business. However, I was surprised that she married Kanye,” the friend said.

Bianca was described by her friends as a strikingly beautiful girl.

According to old friends, Bianca is a girl who stands out with a hot body, beautiful face, long black hair and knows how to dress.

A former colleague at the South Yarra furniture store recalled Censori as a hard worker: “I haven’t been in touch with Bianca for many years but I remember her as a hard-working and dedicated young woman. I was really surprised when I read that she was married to Kanye West.”

Bianca Censori started working for Kanye in the US in November 2020, taking on the role of head of architecture. In April 2022, Censori gave a presentation at the University of Malta about her work at Kanye West’s Yeezy fashion company. Sharing with students, the beauty said that Kanye’s unique aesthetic influenced her design aesthetic. Censori also showed students some of the residential projects she is working on at Yeezy: “I developed a space where you can sit, listen to the sound of running water and see how it flows through your house.”

When she was working for Kanye, Bianca Censori lived a private life and never received any media attention. Recently, some former employees filed lawsuits against Kanye West, revealing that Bianca was Kanye’s lover at the company after he broke up with Kim Kardashian.

In January 2023, Bianca was first seen with Kanye at a restaurant in Los Angeles and the press reported that she had secretly married the famous rapper a month earlier. Kanye also released the song Censori Overload , a play on his wife’s last name. In this rap, Kanye talks about his broken marriage to Kim Kardashian and abstaining from sex until he married Bianca Censori.

Since becoming Kanye West’s wife, Bianca has cut her hair short, changed her dressing style, specializing in tight, neutral-colored clothes and showing off her body. Many of the bold designs Bianca wears are from her husband’s fashion brand. In the past two years, Kanye’s 9X wife has been criticized many times for dressing inappropriately on the street and taking provocative photos for her husband to post on Instagram. Many people believe that Bianca was psychologically manipulated by Kanye, causing her to transform into a different person, always appearing with lifeless, worried eyes when walking next to her husband. According to Dailymail , some old friends said they have not been able to contact Bianca since the day she got married.

At the 2025 Grammy Awards on February 2, Bianca Censori suddenly took off her robe on the red carpet, revealing her entire naked body to the cameras. Lip readers analyzed that Kanye told his wife to “make a mess” before she hesitantly took off her clothes.

After the Grammys, Kanye took to Instagram to promote his wife’s Grammys dress, and praised her performance in X posts, calling her a beautiful, brave woman. Later, in response to criticism that he manipulated Bianca, Kanye declared that he had the right to control and dominate his wife.

This week, multiple sources said that Kanye West and his wife were having trouble because Bianca had had enough of his antics. The couple is said to be preparing for divorce, with Bianca set to receive $5 million after their short marriage. However, Kanye’s representative denied the news of the split.
