During his marriage to Kim Kardashian, Kanye West made headlines for berating his wife's racy fashion choices. So it's no surprise that fans have clocked the rapper's view on nudity has made a dramatic U-turn in recent years, with the hitmaker stealing the spotlight at Sunday's Grammy Awards with his wife Bianca Censori's naked stunt. Fans have taken to social media to slam the musician after a 2019 clip resurfaced that showed Kanye criticising Kim's decision to wear a racy nude Thierry Mugler corset to the Met Gala.
Users have noted that it's a stark contrast to Kanye's treatment of his current spouse, with their red carpet stunt implying he's more than happy for his current spouse Bianca to strip off for the cameras. Kanye has been blasted over the treatment of his wife Bianca's wardrobe choice, following speculation that she is being controlled by him. A close friend of the couple furiously slammed the speculation, telling DailyMail.com that Bianca is a 'willing participant' who was empowered by her husband to make a statement about 'simplicity and provocation'.
A resurfaced clip of Kanye West has sparked accusations of double standards from fans, after it showed the rapper berating his then-wife Kim Kardashian for her racy Met Gala look. It's a view in stark contrast to the stunt he and his wife Bianca Censori pulled on the red carpet at the Grammy Awards on Sunday, which saw the actress strip naked. Footage from season 17 of Keeping Up With The Kardashians showed Kanye shaming Kim for dressing 'too sexy' ahead of her Met Gala appearance.
After spending eight months perfecting her Thierry Mugler look for the event, the reality star was left 'anxiety' ridden when her husband criticized her appearance at the last minute. In the episode, which aired in 2019, West made it clear he wasn't a fan of his then-wife's custom-made, nude-colored corset, designed to look like as though she was dripping wet. As he took in the look, the rapper frowned at the style of her dress as he declared it didn't match with his personal evolution from being a single guy to a married man.
'I just made this transition from being a rapper, looking at all these girls, looking at my wife,' he mused. 'Like, ''Oh, my girl needs to be like the other girls, showing her body off''.'. 'I didn't realize that that was affecting my soul and my spirit as someone that's married and loved, and the father of now, what—about to be four kids?.'. At the time, Kanye and Kim were just days away from becoming parents to their fourth child Psalm, who they welcomed via a surrogate.
In a 2019 episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kanye made it clear he wasn't a fan of the Thierry Mugler corset Kim was planning to wear to the Met Gala. As he took in the look, the rapper frowned at the underwear style of her dress, announcing at her last fitting that it didn't match with his personal evolution. Regardless of Kanye's view, Kim went onto wear the revealing wet-look dress to the Met Gala. She and Kanye divorced in 2022.
'A corset is like a form of underwear,' Kanye continued. 'It's hot. It's like, it's hot for who, though?'. 'So the night before the Met, you're gonna come in here and say that you're not into a corset bust?' Kim asked. 'I'm getting really bad anxiety. What are you talking about?'. 'I don't need any more negative energy for you to now say that you're not into me in a tight dress,' she pointed out. 'You are my wife, and it affects me when pictures are too sexy,' Kanye said.
'You built me up to be this sexy person and confidence and all this stuff,' Kim adroitly pointed out. 'And just because you're on a journey and you're on a transformation doesn't mean that I'm in the same spot with you.'. This prompted West to storm off after saying: 'All right, cool.'. 'That's absolutely ridiculous,' Kim muttered. After the clip re-emerged online, some fans took to social media to point out Kanye's double standards.
Posts included: 'Well this didn't age well; But then he's ok with Bianca Censori's Grammy fit.'. 'Kanye West told Kim Kardashian that the sexy dress she wore to the met gala "hurt his soul" and she had way more covered than this,' a third X user tweeted. 'That tells you how he feels about his new wife—who is NOT the mother of any of his children.'. After the clip re-emerged online, some fans took to social media to point out Kanye's double standards.
A fourth wrote: 'Kanye is weird and I need y’all to stop defending his behavior... he’s a hypocrite.'. In a similar tweet, another critic wrote: 'Kanye is such a hypocrite cuz he used to shame Kim K for waaaaay less talking about how she’s not a good example for their kids.'. Kanye's opinion about how his wife should dress drastically changed after finalizing his high-profile divorce from Kim in 2022.
