Kanye “Ye” West may lose a whopping $20 million deal to perform in Japan after his wife, Bianca Censori, sparked outrage with her nude outfit at the 2025 Grammy Awards.

Investors apparently want out of the eight-figure deal securing the rapper, 47, to take the stage for two shows at the Tokyo Dome in May due to her controversial naked stunt on the red carpet, according to a report by The Daily Mail published on Monday, February 3.

Fans were shocked when Bianca, 30, nonchalantly dropped her black fur coat on the floor and posed for photos on Sunday, February 2, at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles, wearing nothing but a sheer mini dress that left her body fully exposed.

“Kanye is just f–king up every opportunity that comes to him. The stunt was creepy beyond belief and has been greeted with horror in Japan,” sources in Tokyo told The Daily Mail.

“Japan is having a cultural awakening about women’s rights and the MeToo movement is really strong here. What he did is being seen as an act of coercive control which is utterly unacceptable. He has completely culturally misjudged Japan,” added the insiders who claim that Ye and Bianca may have gone too far. “The investors in Japan who are backing the concerts are extremely upset by this. It is highly likely that they will pull the funding for the shows.”

Kanye and Bianca later hit up an after-party, to which she wore a black sheer thong bodysuit.

Ye spoke out about related drama on Monday, February 3, by taking to Instagram with a photo of former CNN anchor Don Lemon, blaming the journalist, 58, for allegedly igniting the rumor that he and Bianca were kicked out of the Grammys.

“This goofball that started the rumor that me and my wife got kicked out the Grammies [sic]. Three decades of innovating music and they always k–ns like this,” West wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post before Don addressed the matter and denied starting the rumor that Ye and Bianca were escorted from the premises after they were allegedly not invited.

As In Touch previously reported, the 24-time Grammy winner and his wife were indeed invited to the event as Ye was nominated in the Best Rap Song category for his track “Carnival.”

“First of all, Kanye, Ye — whatever your name is — I did not start a rumor about you being kicked out of the Grammys,” Don said while responding to the Yeezy fashion designer in a video posted to his Instagram Threads. “I actually corrected it. I saw someone on your team who asked me to correct it because it had been reported everywhere. So, first of all, get your s–t straight. And you, of all people, calling me a c–n,” he added with a laugh. “That Make America Great Again hat must be too tight on your head.”

Ye and Bianca haven’t responded to the backlash over her risque looks at the 2025 Grammys, but insiders told In Touch that his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, has a “long list of rules” for Bianca to follow when her kids are in the couple’s care, including “no nudity.”

Kim, 44, and Kanye were married from 2014 to 2022 and share kids North, 11, Saint, 9, Chicago, 7, and Psalm, 5.
