Bianca Censori did not appear to be down with Kanye West‘s now-infamous idea for her unforgettable nearly-nude appearance on the Grammys red carpet earlier this month.
That’s according to actress and social media superstar Riley Mae Lewis, at least. On Monday, Lewis spoke with the US Sun about that absolutely INSANE red carpet stunt pulled by the Hurricane rapper at the awards show back on the night of February 2. And what she said has us shaking our head…

According to Riley Mae, the “energy” between the embattled couple “seemed off” immediately before Bianca bared all.
The social media influencer explained how it seemed possible that the couple might have been arguing just before Bianca disrobed. And not only that, but the observant actress was NOT the only person to sense that something was seriously amiss:
“I thought they might’ve been arguing or something. She didn’t look like was fully onboard with the scandal he wanted to create on the carpet. The energy between the two seemed off, and a lot of people on the carpet thought the exact same thing.”
Yikes! And somehow, it gets worse from there!
According to Lewis, in the moments leading up to what turned out to be one of the craziest events in red carpet history, Ye allegedly even attempted to flirt with her RIGHT IN FRONT OF BIANCA!!! Riley Mae recalled:
“It makes me concerned for what their relationship is like behind the scenes. When I saw him, he kind of gave me a flirty look even though Bianca was right next to him… the whole situation was weird. Bianca did not look like she wanted to be there, and Kanye looked like he was loving the attention, knowing the publicity it would later bring him.”
WTF?!
Now, in light of Ye’s most recent unsettling rants on X (Twitter), Lewis is trying to put the Grammys stunt and everything else around it into context:
“Now seeing everything that is going on with Kanye’s wild rants, it makes sense, possibly, this is what led to the downfall of Kanye on Twitter. This all was definitely planned, no doubt.”
All this cuts a little bit deeper now, too, in light of how Elon Musk‘s new NSFW labeling of Ye’s X account resulted in Ye deactivating it after his most recent unhinged, antisemitic rant went mega-viral.
Lewis, who first rose to fame on social media and boasts well north of 7 million followers across all of her online profiles, laid out very starkly for the US Sun how the Chicago native lost a LOT now that he’s been banned from X:
“Twitter has always been one of Kanye’s primary platforms for controversy. He’s essentially cutting off a direct line to his most vocal and loyal supporters.”
Not wrong about that “direct line to his most vocal and loyal supporters” part. Not wrong at all…
Ye is likely going to lose out on a lot of money for it, too:
“I know how much Twitter plays a role in engagement. Thirty percent of most celebs’ social media income from monetization and brand deals comes from Twitter. He could possibly lose out on millions, given that he just launched his new Yeezy commercial at the Super Bowl, and now won’t be using Twitter.”
Not great. Not great on any count!
