Kanye West’s wife Bianca Censori, known for her daring fashion choices, made a very bold statement at the 67th Grammy Awards by wearing nothing but a see-through dress. The 30 year old attended the event with her husband, Kanye, who was nominated for two awards and opted for an all-black ensemble of a t-shirt, jeans, sneakers and dark sunglasses.
However, it was Bianca who garnered attention when she dropped her black fluffy coat to reveal her bare body beneath a skin-tight mesh slip dress. With her hair tied back, every inch of her was on display, potentially landing her in hot water with the law. 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.”
“It also stipulates that the act must be “willful and lewd” to be considered a crime. To be found guilty, a person 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.”
Some may argue that Bianca’s daring red carpet outfit fits this description, reports the Mirror US. A first-time offender is usually slapped with a misdemeanour, facing up to six months in the clink or a fine of £800. A repeat offender risks being banged up in state prison and slapped with a decade on the sex offenders register.
Social media was abuzz over Bianca’s Grammys outfit, as one X user expressed their shock by saying: “kanye and that lady should be arrested for that stunt on the red carpet…… #GRAMMYs.”
Another said: “Every single time i have seen Kanye’s wife naked was against my will,” while a third person commented: “Kanye’s wife is fully naked…. does this event not have a dress code…?” A fourth user didn’t hid their dismay by writing: ” “Kanye West and Bianca Censori at Grammys. Completely Disgusting. #Grammys #Kanye.”
The shocking red carpet moment preceded live performances from nominees like Charli XCX, Billie Eilish, and Lady Gaga. This year’s Grammys were almost cancelled due to the LA wildfires, but California governor Gavin Newsom gave the green light, resulting in a reimagined, toned-down event.
