Bianca Censori flashes huge smile in tiny outfit on date with Kanye West
Bianca Censori looked uncharacteristically smiley as she stepped out for a family dinner with husband Kanye West yesterday. The Australian model, 30, has attracted media attention on multiple occasions since marrying the 48-year-old rapper in a private ceremony in 2022. Once an architectural designer for his brand, Yeezy, she's now synonymous with revealing outfits, having exposed some serious skin on both red carpets and during casual outings with her other half. Typically, while Bianca wears very little on her body, she always has a stoic expression plastered across her face, seldom smiling, even for paparazzi at major A-list events. But when grabbing food with Ye in Los Angeles, California, on Thursday, she couldn't have appeared happier. Whether breaking character was due to the company she was keeping or something else, we'll never know, but we're sure some good food helped with her mood, as the A-list lovebirds dined at Denny's. Along with showcasing her pearly whites, however, Bianca also displayed her lean physique, opting to go braless in a tiny ensemble. She wore a super low-cut, baby blue cami top with spaghetti straps, teamed with a pair of tight-fitting micro shorts. Bianca also wore her raven locks in a natural, straight style in a hairdo that has seen her likened to Ye's ex-wife and mother of his children, Kim Kardashian, in the past. In contrast, during their outing, the Gold Digger hitmaker was, as usual, fully clothed, sporting a black tracksuit and a stern expression. It's believed the couple were grabbing a bite to eat after a screening of the hit new horror mystery flick Weapons, which stars Julia Garner and Josh Brolin. Bianca and Ye appeared content in one another's company during their day date, chatting while walking. And after photos of them surfaced online, people had plenty to say, with one Instagram commenter, @virgoskye, hoping Bianca's more vibrant appearance was a 'good sign', after fans previously expressed concern for the nature of her relationship with Ye. Other social media users were taken aback by Bianca's ever-so-slightly more reserved attire, noting it was the 'most clothes [they've] seen her in'. 'She is a beautiful girl truly!', @ said. While @mizzlindzy said, 'I'm convinced he's exploiting her', others defended Ye against such allegations, as @ash_belize penned: 'If they are happy. Who cares 🤷🏽♂️ let them live.' Fans have become accustomed to seeing rather a lot of Blanca in recent years, whether it be her totally nude Grammys dress, some skimpy lingerie, or exposing her body in a photoshoot for Ye's Insta. In the past, particularly after igniting rage with Bianca's sheer Grammys look, Ye has admitted to having 'dominion' over his wife. Having been accused of 'abusive' and 'controlling' behaviour earlier in the year, the artist took to X with a rant but also insisted that he would not make her wear something she felt uncomfortable in. The divisive rap star added at the time that 'anyone who called my wife's Grammy look a stunt is dumb and laaaame [sic]'. 'She been dressing naked for 2 years. Now all of a sudden it's a stunt. Every single b***h on the planet wish they had her bravery body platform and access to money and a husband that supported they personal expression,' he continued. Meanwhile, the spouses have long been fighting off rumours of divorce, having parted ways just months back. But, they seemingly patched up their issues and got back together. On his latest album, WW3, Ye hinted at a brief split in his lyrics of a track titled Bianca. He sang: 'My baby she ran away / But first she tried to get me committed / Not going to the hospital 'cause I am not sick I just do not get it. 'She's having a panic attack and she is not liking the way that I tweeted / Until Bianca's back I stay up all night I'm not going to sleep / I really don't know where she's at.' More Trending He also rapped that she left him after he installed a tracking app on her phone, pleading for her to go back to him. Of course, it didn't take long for fans to begin digging into the words, but Ye and Bianca soon quashed speculation that they were heading for a legal separation, having posed together for photos on social media and on public outings. It now appears they are more united than ever—publicly, at least—with Bianca spotted stepping into the stepmother role with Ye's young kids North, 12, Saint, nine, Chicago, seven, and Psalm, six. Reality star Kim's co-parenting struggles with her ex are no secret, but it seems her children give their dad's new wife the stamp of approval. Got a story?

Tearful Kim Kardashian pleads with Kanye West: 'your personality was not like this a few years ago!' as he admits he'd rather 'be dead than be on medication' amid bipolar diagnosis in explosive documentary trailer
Kim Kardashian broke down in tears as she pleaded with her then husband Kanye West: 'your personality was not like this a few years ago!' in an explosive documentary trailer about the controversial rapper. The businesswoman, 44, could be heard getting upset during a heated argument with Kanye in a video teasing the upcoming In Whose Name? documentary. The beginning of the trailer, which was released on YouTube on Wednesday, showed a tense moment between Kardashian and West, who now goes by Ye, when they were still married. With her voice audibly shaking and seemingly sobbing Kim says to him: 'Your personality was not like this a few years ago!' The rapper then admitted that he stopped taking his medication for his bipolar disorder: 'I'm off my meds for five months now.' He later added: 'I'd rather be dead than to be on medication. Either they destroy me or I destroy it.' The pair were previously married from 2014 to 2022 and share four children: North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm. Their divorce proceedings and ongoing co-parenting dynamic has made headlines over the years - even back to when their marriage started breaking down in the public eye and as he continued sharing offensive social media posts years after their split. He previously opened up about begin diagnosed with bipolar disorder in 2016 after being hospitalized for a psychiatric emergency. However, earlier this year, West said he was misdiagnosed and has now been diagnosed as autistic, which is not a mental illness. Audio clips were stitched together with West talking and at other points, his voice was even yelling: 'It's a calling by the universe. Never tell me I'm going to wake up one day and have nothing.' Then, the then-couple could be seen sitting on a couch together, facing each other. After what appeared to be another tense conversation, she calmly said to him, 'We could talk about that later, but...' before he interrupts her: ''It ain't no but.' 'When I went to the hospital and one of the ideas was to do a church,' he narrated alongside clips of his Easter Sunday Service performance at the 2019 Coachella Music Festival, where he appeared to be crying as Chance the Rapper consoled him. 'Yeah, I was just being embarrassed or ashamed to cry, man,' he narrated alongside more clips of his activities over the years, including making music, filming artistic videos, spending time with his young children and designing fashion. In the trailer, West could be seen with their kids and traveling with their eldest daughter North West when she was a toddler Many of his recent controversies were not included in the trailer. Preceding the most controversial ones, one clip showed when he declared his presidential run and held up a sign. He was also notably still wearing his wedding ring 'When we're at the prisons, professing how Jesus can set you free, it's true,' an audio clip of a sermon played over clips of inmates in prison during church service. 'Thank you, Jesus. I decided to run,' the rapper said as a clip of West holding up a sign that read, 'YE4PRESIDENT,' flashed across the screen. In the trailer, West could be seen with their kids and traveling with their eldest daughter North West when she was a toddler. At one point in the explosive trailer, he was heard yelling: 'I almost killed my daughter.' Going back to how he stopped taking his medication, he was also heard declaring: 'I'd rather be dead than to be on medication. Either they destroy me or I destroy it.' 'It's a sad dream,' Kardashian's voice made one final appearance as West continued to vent. 'They're killing our ability to think outside of the box. And I'm almost like a masochist,' he said. 'I like whatever I want, when I want. It's worse.' In the concluding clip, he proclaimed: 'You know the best thing about being an artist and bipolar? Anything you do and say is an art piece.' The trailer showed clips preceding when West got married to Bianca Censori, so it is unclear if the documentary will feature the 30-year-old Yeezy architect-turned-model. He held sermons of his own during that time, holding exclusive, spiritual gatherings to perform gospel music alongside his choir One of West's passions is creative direction and fashion design as seen in montages of him posing with hundreds of sneakers from his time working with Adidas and making Yeezy designs Later, another clip showed him during a quiet moment in his life as he traveled alone The trailer was riddled with artistic cinematography showing West around the world and even posing in the middle of the street in Paris The upcoming documentary was directed and produced by Nico Ballesteros, a filmmaker who started working as an intern for West at age 18 and filmed him over six years. The summary of the trailer read: 'Over six years, 18-year-old Nico Ballesteros captured an unfiltered portrait of Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, offering unprecedented access into the private and public life of one of the most controversial figures in modern culture. 'The film charts Ye's meteoric rise to becoming the richest Black man in American history and the choices, contradictions, and collapses that have since redefined his legacy,' the description continued. 'Featuring appearances by Kim Kardashian and other influential figures from Ye's inner circle, the documentary explores the razor's edge between creative genius and self-destruction, revealing the cost of freedom in a fame-obsessed world.'
