Bianca Censori (born January 5, 1995) is an Australian architect and model. Censori became known to the public as Kanye West's wife, as they reportedly married in a private ceremony in December 2022.[3] She has also been referred to as his wife by the media.[4]

Early life and education[edit]

Bianca Censori was born in Melbourne, one of three daughters born to Alexandra and Elia "Leo" Censori. Her paternal grandparents, native of Giulianova, Italy, immigrated to Australia with their five children Edmondo, Eliseo, Elia, Elena, and Eris in 1960.[5]

Censori attended Melbourne's Carey Baptist Grammar School[6] and has a bachelor's and master's degrees in architecture from the University of Melbourne.[4] She was a student architect at DP Toscano Architects based in Collingwood, Victoria. Censori created the Nylons Jewelry brand after graduating from high school.[7]

Work and relationship with Kanye West and Yeezy[edit]

Censori is currently Head of Architecture at Yeezy, Kanye West's clothing and apparel company.[8][9]

On 7 December 2022, Kanye West released a song inspired by her titled "Censori Overload" on Instagram Stories.[10] It was reported that Censori had secretly married West in December 2022, though the couple did not file for a marriage license.[11]

In September 2023, police in Venice were reported to be investigating West and Censori over "acts contrary to public decency" after the couple posted photos of themselves on a water taxi with West's pants pulled down and buttocks exposed, and Censori's head in his lap.[12][13]

On Censori's 29th birthday on January 5, 2024, Kanye West posted several unreleased pictures of Censori on Instagram along with the caption: “Happy birthday to the most beautiful super bad iconic muse inspirational talented artist masters degree in architecture 140 IQ loving by my side everyday when half the world turned their backs on me and the most amazing step mom to our children I love you so much thank you for sharing your life with me.”[14] The same day, West posted a snapshot of Censori, wearing a Vultures sweatshirt and furry white boots, with the caption: “I miss you when I wake up before you."[14] West would subsequently on 17th of January trademark the caption, and has been rumored by fans to be the title of Kanye West's upcoming solo album, however this has not been confirmed.[15]

In January 2024, West said on his Instagram account that she would be with "no pants" in 2024, and in February 2024 there were concerns expressed when she was photographed out in public in the nude except for a see-through raincoat.[13] In early April 2024, she made a similar appearance to an excursion at a Los Angeles restaurant with her husband.[16] During the development of the YZY APP by Yeezy, Censori allegedly sent an employee a file-sharing link containing explicit sexual content. These materials were accessible to minors working on the app, exposing them to inappropriate content during their development on the project.[17]

Censori appears on the album cover of Vultures 1 (2024), the debut album of ¥$, a duo consisting of Kanye West and singer Ty Dolla Sign.[18]
