Bianca Censori Denies She’s Behind X Post Praying for Husband Kanye

Editor’s note: This story has been updated to reflect that Bianca Censori denied being behind an X post expressing concern for Kanye West. A rep for Censori later told The Hollywood Reporter the account “does not belong to Ye’s wife” and that they “have reached out to X to get the account unverified and/or banned.”

A verified X account using Bianca Censori’s name expressed concern for her husband Kanye West after the billionaire rapper spent the last few days spewing vitriol against a handful of minority groups, particularly the Jewish community, and went so far as to identify himself as a Nazi.

“Lord, I lift up my husband to You with love & concern. Soften his heart, guide his words, and fill him with wisdom and kindness,” the account purporting to be Censori wrote on X early Sunday morning. “Protect him from trouble & lead him toward understanding & respect for all people.

“Despite our differences, I love him unconditionally,” the post continued. “Strengthen our bond & help me be a source of patience & encouragement. I trust in Your grace to work in his heart. God Bless Israel and All The Good Jewish Pple. Amen.”

Late Sunday night, a rep for the Australian model told The Hollywood Reporter that the post was a fake. The account “does not belong to Ye’s wife,” the rep said, and “We have reached out to X to get the account unverified and/or banned.”

On Monday morning, the account was still verified on the site.

West, who now goes by Ye, spent several days firing off dozens of antisemitic and racist posts under the guise of free speech.

In a span of a few days the rapper praised Adolf Hitler, identified as a Nazi, doubled down on his earlier statements that slavery is a choice, and even posted a Yeezy T-shirt design with a swastika that he deemed his “greatest performance art.”

For his latest rant on Sunday, West went on a tirade defending Sean “Diddy” Combs and R. Kelly. He then took a jab at Super Bowl performer Kendrick Lamar, whom he previously collaborated with on his 2016 album The Life of Pablo.

The rapper also weighed in on X owner Elon Musk seemingly unfollowing his account due to his posts and wrote in all-caps: “Even though Elon was forced to unfollow me he’s a G. The world has never been allowed to see someone express themselves freely for this long.

“Freedom of expression is the next level of freedom,” West continued. “Everyone answers to someone except me.”

By late Sunday night, West’s account appeared to have been deactivated.
