The photographer whose images were posted by Kanye West has spoken out once again following Bianca Censori's recent outfit drama.
People are still talking about West, 47, and Censori's Grammys red carpet appearance on Sunday (2 February) which saw the 30-year-old Aussie model wear a completely see-through mini dress, showing off her bare breasts and nether-regions.
There was major outrage online following the couple's 'stunt', with one of the latest slices of drama seeing West go off on a bizarre social media rant after photographer Chiara Glionna called him out over his behaviour.

The musician's tirade began Tuesday afternoon (4 February) when Glionna commented on West's IG post about Google searches after the Grammys writing: "It's an easy win when a man puts a naked woman on screen."
West then responded by screenshotting Glionna's criticising comment and added a red circle around it, along with the caption: "This is my favorite part @ xchiaraglionna Watch these comments get shut off quick."
He then posted a second snap of Glionna's Instagram account adding in the caption: "Now watch this… @xchiaraglionna."
West posted two screenshots from Glionna's photography page, circling around various snaps of women with one of the captions read: "Oh nothing sexual here…. But wait for it..."
"Now waaaaaaidaminute [thinking emoji] @ xchiaraglionna," he wrote in the second one.
He then posted a screenshot showing the fact hat Glionna followed him on Instagram, writing in the caption: "AND BY THE WAY @xchiaraglionna YOUR WORK SUCKS AND YOUR FRIENDS HATE YOU."
At the time of writing, West has deleted all screenshots from the scathing rant.
But Glionna took no time responding to the rant.
Sharing a screenshot of West's Instagram page to her story, Glionna penned: "Seriously Mr. West?"
In a follow-up post, she added: "And he is still not understanding the point of what I said... it's not all man but always one."
And, in the most recent update of the saga so far, Glionna has since shared her latest statement on the matter.
Taking to her Instagram story this afternoon (5 February) she uploaded a selfie alongside overlay text which read: "Keep insulting me but take a moment to think about the fact that with all the disgusting comments about his wife's body, he wasted time on my comment, which never mentioned Bianca, never said anything about her, and was only talking about him.
"Think about it for a second huh."
Glionna previously shared a statement with Tyla on the matter, making an important point following West's attack.
It began: "My response is that nothing better represents the continuous risk that women’s rights, freedom, and vision face within society than what happened today. And one wonders why.
"The witch hunt has never ended, even though history seems to have told us otherwise. But I am the daughter of those women who made it, who had the courage to resist and fight, and I will continue to fight for what I believe in.
"In this case, what happened once again shows how fragile our freedom of expression is and how insidious the culture of oppression is. A man, offended by a simple comment, triggered a reaction of power and violence, as if what I wrote were an offence so severe as to justify such an attack."
She continued: "In any case, the reason for his resentment has nothing to do with the value of the women I portray in my photographs. These women have never been objects to possess, judge, humiliate, or, above all, sexualise.
"They have never had anything to do with the way he treated his wife, reducing her to an ornament. The heart of all of this is not an offense to the male ego, but the fight for a fundamental right: respect.
"And I will never stop defending it."
