Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori are speaking out against claims that the rapper has been controlling and abusive towards his spouse.
After a weekend filled with shocking tweets from West, including comments about past violence and a disturbing joke about domestic abuse, a spokesperson for the couple has responded to set the record straight.
Spokesperson Defends West and Censori Against Abuse Claims
Milo Yiannopoulos, a representative for West and Censori, denied suggestions that West had been physically or emotionally abusive to Censori.
He labeled the narrative that Censori was a “battered” woman as “hysterical and absurd” in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
Yiannopoulos pointed out that, far from being manipulated, Censori is a key figure in her own life choices, including her fashion decisions, saying, “The name of that person is Bianca Censori,” referring to her as the driving force behind her personal style.
Yiannopoulos made it clear that Censori is not under West’s influence when it comes to her public appearance, including her recent Grammy red carpet look.
He stated that Censori is the “guiding creative intelligence” behind her wardrobe, while acknowledging West as the “final boss” in their partnership.
Kanye’s Controversial Tweets Spark Backlash
Over the weekend, West stirred up even more controversy with a series of tweets, including a troubling comment where he appeared to defend Sean “Diddy” Combs’ past actions toward his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura.
West said, “When a man truly loves a woman he may express it in rage,” attempting to rationalize violent behavior in relationships.
The comments sparked immediate outrage, with many accusing him of trivializing domestic abuse.
West also made light of domestic violence with a sarcastic remark asking whether physically assaulting a girlfriend in public would be considered domestic violence, or something else entirely.
His behavior has only intensified the scrutiny surrounding him, with many critics accusing him of promoting harmful and violent ideologies.
Controversial T-Shirt and Antisemitism Allegations
In addition to the allegations of abuse, West’s actions over the weekend also brought attention to his Yeezy brand.
The rapper’s website featured a t-shirt emblazoned with a swastika, labeled “HH-01,” a clear reference to Nazi symbolism.
The Anti-Defamation League condemned the sale, calling it further proof of West’s antisemitic behavior.
The organization also criticized West for promoting the t-shirt during the Super Bowl, a platform with a massive global audience.
Tal-Or Cohen Montemayor, the founder of the online anti-Semitism watchdog group CyberWell, spoke out against West’s use of digital platforms to spread hateful messages.
Cohen Montemayor stated that the group was reaching out to digital service providers like Shopify and GoDaddy to have the website and its offensive content removed.
Ongoing Reactions and Investigations
As the controversy continues to unfold, Yiannopoulos and West’s camp are being scrutinized by both the media and advocacy groups.
The spokesperson for the couple has denied that Censori tweeted a prayer for her husband, attributing it to a fake account.
Meanwhile, organizations like CyberWell are pressing for action against West’s use of digital platforms to promote hate.
The ongoing backlash against Kanye West and his brand underscores the growing tension around his behavior, both on social media and in his public persona.
His actions and statements continue to divide public opinion and raise serious concerns about the impact of his influence.
