Raj Kapoor, the executive producer of the 2025 Grammys, said there are “standards” at the awards show — and Bianca Censori and Kanye West surely didn’t meet them.
On Tuesday, Kapoor told People that guests are meant to follow an “artistic black-tie” dress code, adding, “but in the music industry, I guess that’s up for interpretation.”
Kapoor said there are different “standards” for attendees based on their relation to the show — West, 47, was notably nominated for best rap song but did not perform.
“Obviously there is a dress code for anybody actually performing on the show that we have to adhere to standards and practices,” he told the outlet. “But as far as people attending and nominees attending, that would be something the [Recording] Academy would have to answer.”
While the Academy has not publicly shared their exact wardrobe rules, CBS issued a “wardrobe advisory” in 2013 stating that “buttocks and female breasts” should be “adequately covered” at the event.
In the statement, obtained by Deadline, they asked that “all talent appearing on camera” — including “audience members” — “please adhere to Network policy concerning wardrobe.”
They asked guests to avoid “sheer” or “see-through” clothing that “could possibly expose female breast nipples” and the exposure of “bare fleshy under curves of the buttock and buttock crack.”
They also required that the “genital region is adequately covered so that there is no visible ‘puffy’ bare skin exposure.”
However, Censori’s barely-there outfit broke nearly all the “rules.”
The former Yeezy architect, 30, walked the red carpet in a completely see-through minidress seemingly crafted from sheer stockings. Censori left very little to the imagination in the daring design, opting to forgo any undergarments.
While she arrived in a black fur coat, she quickly removed the garment after West allegedly told her to start “making a scene,” according to a lip reader.
“Drop it behind you and then turn, I got you,” he allegedly said, to which she replied, “All right, let’s go.”
We’re told the couple was attempting to recreate the rapper’s “Vultures 1” album cover — in which Censori posed topless in nothing but thigh-high boots and a small piece of fabric on her backside.
However, the couple left after walking the red carpet and did not attend the actual awards ceremony, instead celebrating at a private afterparty.
Although many people have voiced their concern for Censori, a source told Us Weekly that the model “likes the attention.”
“Good or bad, they love it,” the insider told the outlet. “They love the buzz.”
Despite the souces’ analysis of the situation, a body language expert later claimed she showed signs of “fear” and “nervousness” before “baring it all.”
