Bianca Censori is setting the record straight on her viral nudity, insisting husband Kanye West is not the reason she steps out naked in public.
“I wouldn’t be doing something I didn’t want to do,” Censori, 31, shared in a Vanity Fair profile published on Friday, February 6. “Me and my husband would work on my outfits together.”
Censori made it clear that every time she stepped out naked, it was her choice.
“It was like a collaboration, it was never ‘I was being told to do something,’” she clarified. “If you were married to Gianni Versace, wouldn’t he give you a dress or something?”
Censori and West, 48, have been married since 2022. In the rare interview, she made it clear that their marriage is not a stunt and denied she’s being controlled.
“I didn’t marry my husband because I wanted some sort of platform,” she said. “I married him because I love him. Is that like the corniest thing ever?”
However, Censori is not naive to the fact that she’s a “nepo wife,” which is why people care about her relationship.
“I’m famous by association,” she added. “But your image is replicated without your consent all the time. It’s replicated, it’s brought down, it’s picked apart, all those kind of things.”
Censori did admit that she had “an obvious obsession with nudity,” as evidenced by past red carpet appearances.
She made headlines at the Grammys in 2025 for arriving in an oversized fur coat and removing it to debut her flesh-colored transparent minidress that showed off her entire body.
West referred to it as a “custom couture” piece from his Yzy fashion label. “First women’s piece,” he captioned an Instagram post at the time.
Later that same evening, Censori attended Grammys afterparties in a sheer black thong bodysuit, continuing a night of naked looks. The following day, West praised his wife for her daring fashion choice.
“My wife is the most Googled person on the planet called Earth,” he shared on social media. “We beat the Grammys.”
Looking back, Censori is not shy about her decision to bare it all in the name of fashion.
“I was naked everywhere. I didn’t detach with it at any point. I consistently showed the same imagery over and over and over again.” she explained to Vanity Fair. “I live my artwork.”
The Australian architect — who is gearing up to unveil “BIO POP,” the first installment of a seven-year performance art exhibit in Korea — told the outlet that when she wears a sheer bodysuit exposing her nipples, it’s “basically not nudity.”
The profile notes that Censori became the “most Googled” woman in the world in 2025, something she was happy to address.
“I’m trying not to sound like I’m bragging, but it is not a position that anybody in time has ever had that much visibility without speech,” Censori explained. “If it was just nudity, a lot of people would have that. But it also proves in a time that was so overexposed and vulnerable, that mystery still has power.”
