Grammys 2025: Was Bianca Censori 'kicked out' of awards after 'naked' dress red carpet show?

Bianca Censori caused a stir at the Grammy Awards as she appeared on the red carpet in a barely-there transparent dress.

The Australian model made her red carpet debut with husband rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, at the 2025 awards in Los Angeles on Sunday night.

Appearing on the red carpet, she dropped her dark fur coat to reveal her exposed backside to the flash of cameras.

Following the shock appearance, reports emerged that the rapper and Censori had turned up uninvited, and were escorted out by cops after their “crazy stunt”.

However a source who spoke on the condition of anonymity said that Ye was an invited guest because of his nomination in the best rap song category for Carnival.

Censori’s sheer mini dress caused some people on social media to question if the appearance violated California’s indecent exposure laws.

It came as Beyonce secured the prestigious album of the year Grammy Award for her chart-topping country album Cowboy Carter.

The US superstar had been nominated on four previous occasions but failed to secure the prize with 2008's I Am... Sasha Fierce, 2013's Beyonce, 2016's Lemonade and 2022's Renaissance.

The recognition alongside earlier wins on Sunday of best country album and the country duo/group performance award for her song featuring Miley Cyrus, titled II Most Wanted, has extended her lead as the most-awarded artist in Grammys history to 35 awards.

Collecting the album of the year award at the Crypto.com Arena, the 43-year-old said: "I just feel very full and very honoured.

"It's been many, many years and I want to thank the Grammys, every songwriter, every collaborator, every producer, all of the hard work.

"I want to dedicate this to Ms (Linda) Martell, and I hope we just keep pushing forward, opening doors. God bless y'all. Thank you so much."

The singer, who was joined on stage by her daughter Blue Ivy, also praised the firefighters for “keeping us safe” during the Los Angeles wildfires.

Earlier in the night, fellow album of the year nominee Taylor Swift presented a stunned Beyonce with the best country album award.

The singer admitted she was “not expecting” to win the award and praised the “incredible country artists” who accepted her album, adding: “I think sometimes genre is a cold word to keep us in our place as artists and I just want to encourage people to do what they're passionate about and to stay persistent.”
