People in disbelief as Kanye West’s wife Bianca Censori turns up to Grammys in X-rated outfit
Bianca Censori has once again set tongues wagging for her explicit outfit choices, after rocking up to tonight's Grammys red carpet in a totally sheer gown.
The 30-year-old Australian model - who is married to controversial rapper Kanye West - has been slammed on social media for donning such a revealing get-up in a public space, with the festivities being broadcast on live television.
Censori was seen wearing a plush fur coat, which she later removed to reveal a completely mesh skin-coloured mini dress, revealing her breasts and nether-regions.
As we say, the outfit hasn't gone down too well with several viewers, with one hitting out on X (formerly Twitter): "Holy Cow how do you get away with that and where are your clothes??"

Another critic wrote: "How is Bianca’s dressing at the Grammys legal? Or her husband (Kanye West) is a billionaire so she gets a pass?"
"WHY IS BIANCA CENSORI ALWAYS NAKED," a third demanded.
"why did i just see bianca whatever her last name is reveal her naked body on the grammys red carpet ….." another asked.
Sharing footage of the couple arriving on the red carpet, a fifth added: "Kanye West & Bianca bare ass naked at the Grammy’s".
"i don’t know how bianca censori is allowed to show up literally naked to the f*****g GRAMMYS of all places but ok that’s the world we live in now," another hit out.
Kanye and Bianca's controversial red carpet arrival comes just hours after the 'Stronger' hit-maker made headlines for unfollowing everyone on social media - except 'frenemy' Taylor Swift.
15 years after their very public dispute first kicked off - when Kanye interrupted a then-19-year-old Taylor's MTV Music Award win by claiming Beyoncé should have won Best Female Video instead - the rapper has altered his Instagram logistics.
Taylor - who herself is up for several awards at tonight's festivities - is set to walk the red carpet in the coming hours, with many fans of the country-pop star wondering whether Kanye's latest move is a prefix for some drama set to take place tonight.
Taylor will go head-to-head with Beyoncé once again tonight - as well as the likes of Sabrina Carpenter, Billie Eilish, Cardi B and Chappell Roan in several of the 'big four' categories.
These include the Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Song of the Year and Best New Artist.
It’s expected that Queen Bey will walk away with an award or two this year, with country-esque album Cowboy Carter having been shortlisted for a staggering 11.
Taylor, meanwhile, has the most Album of the Year wins at the Grammy Awards under her belt already.
Kanye isn't nominated for any accolades.
Most shocking moments in Grammys history
From dazzling performances and emotional tributes to scandalous statements, let's take a look back at some of the most jaw-dropping moments from the awards show.
Alicia Keys playing two pianos at the same time
It's hard enough playing one piano in front of a huge audience, let alone two, but 'Girl on Fire' singer Alicia Keys blew fans away back in 2019 when she took to the stage for an iconic dual-piano performance.
The singer paid homage to jazz star Hazel Scott with her impressive display as she performed a medley of songs she 'wished she'd wrote'.
"I always wanted to play two pianos," she simply said at the time. And that she did. Fair play!
Lady Gaga hatching from an egg
Back in 2011 Lady Gaga was still well into her era of wacky red carpet attire and theatrical performances, but she really pushed the boat out when she turned up to the awards ceremony in a literal egg.
To top it off, she emerged sporting a yolk-coloured bra and matching yellow skirt.
Annie Lennox turns up in drag
Back in 1984, Grammys staff were scrambling around in a state of sheer panic looking for Eurythmics star Annie Lennox who was set to perform the group's hit 'Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This)'.
Turns out however, she was simply in drag, and staff had no clue it was her. And neither did the audience, who were suitably confused when she stepped onto the stage to perform the iconic track.
"People were unaware that it was me, so it was almost like being a fly on the wall for a while," she said at the time.
The move was essentially done as a two fingers to people questioning her sexuality and androgynous style.
Elton John and Eminem become the duo no one expected
In 2001, Slim Shady was at the peak of his fame, having cemented himself as one of the most successful - and controversial - rappers of the time. But it's safe to say no one was expecting him to duet with music legend Elton John, especially given the nature of some of Eminem's lyrics.
At the time, it was reported that several LGBTQ+ advocacy groups were far from happy with the move.
Jennifer Hudson's emotional Whitney Houston tribute
Whitney Houston was tragically found dead in her hotel room just one day before the 2012 Grammys, with Jennifer Hudson stepping in last minute to perform a memorable tribute to the star.
The music industry and wider entertainment world was still reeling from the heartbreaking news as Hudson belted out Houston's iconic song 'I Will Always Love You'. She received a standing ovation from the crowd following the emotional performance.
Nicki Minaj gets exorcised
In 2012, rapper Nicki Minaj majorly p**sed off the Catholic church when she strutted down the red carpet arm in arm with a fake priest before putting on an 'exorcism' during a performance of her track 'Roman Holiday'.
Jaws dropped as the star began levitating while hooked up to various cables.
In response to the backlash, Minaj said she 'didn't know what the big issue was'.
Queen Latifah officiates 33 marriages on stage
In 2014, Macklemore's track 'Same Love' began ringing out of the Grammys stage when towards the end out of nowhere, 33 same-sex and straight couples lined up on stage to get married with Queen Latifah ordaining.
Oh, and to make matters even more iconic, Madonna then steps out to sing her hit 'Open Your Heart', prompting a second wave of cheers to erupt from the crowd.
"This song is a love song, not for some of us, but for all of us," Queen Latifah said at the time.
Doja Cat nearly misses her award... because she was on the bog
That's right, Doja Cat had nipped to the loo when it was announced she and SZA had won best pop duo for their song 'Kiss Me More' at the 2022 Grammys. Typical.
Safe to say the star looked flustered as she finally joined SZA on stage to accept the award, joking that she'd never used the toilet so quickly 'in my whole life'.
