Kanye West may lose up to $20 million after his wife, Bianca Censori, wore a revealing outfit to the 2025 Grammy Awards. The couple made headlines when Censori arrived in a sheer mesh dress with no undergarments, a stunt that reportedly angered investors in Japan.
West was scheduled to perform two shows at the Tokyo Dome in May, but sources claim that the backlash from Censori’s outfit could jeopardize those deals. A source told the Daily Mail, “Kanye is just f***ing up every opportunity that comes to him. The stunt was creepy beyond belief and has been greeted with horror in Japan.” They added that Japan’s growing awareness of women’s rights and the MeToo movement has made the public more critical of his actions.
West has been living in a Tokyo hotel for much of the past year, and this controversy could significantly damage his standing in the country. Meanwhile, a lip reader claimed to have deciphered West’s conversation with Censori at the event, suggesting he encouraged the dramatic outfit reveal by saying, “Make a scene, I’ll say it’ll make so much sense.”
Neither West nor his representatives have responded to the claims. However, with ongoing backlash over his public image, some wonder if this latest controversy could have long-term financial consequences for the rapper.
