He once shared shocking footage of himself urinating on a Grammy Award after he went ‘into battle' against labels to try and retrieve the rights to his own music. So, it is perhaps unsurprising that Kanye West, 47, dragged his wife Bianca Censori, 30, into his latest publicity stunt as he returned to the annual event on Sunday night. But despite commanding attention with the appalling move, which saw Censori bare her naked body underneath a sheer mini dress, the rapper was reportedly left ‘upset’ that he didn’t get to wreak more havoc inside after being asked to leave.
Insiders have told DailyMail.com that someone was sent to speak with the Vultures artist minutes after Censori dropped her fur coat to the floor over fears CBS – the network which aired the live broadcast – could face fines and reprimands from advertisers as a result of the obscene outfit. ‘Everyone looked at them like they were crazy and the word is that he tried to create a major publicity stunt because he is worried he isn’t the centre of attention any more,' the source said.

Kanye West was reportedly left ‘upset’ that he didn’t get to wreak more havoc inside after his wife's stunt, insiders have told DailyMail.com.

The insider added that he was informed by his own camp that he himself could be sued by the network if they did anything crazy during the broadcast. They denied reports that the couple were escorted away by police. The ceremony kicked off in Los Angeles at 8pm ET and 5pm PT on Sunday night, hours before the US watershed which is in place from 10pm until 6am. The source said some industry insiders felt the move was a 'failed' attempt to 'steal Kendrick Lamar’s thunder'.

West, who has won a whopping 24 Grammy Awards across the past two decades, lost out to Lamar for Best Rap Song. The Compton native, 37, took the gong for his Drake diss song Not Like Us. He also earned two of the 'big four' awards, taking home Song Of The Year and Record Of The Year.

Censori's eye-popping stunt prompted calls for her to be arrested for indecent exposure, with many circulating a picture of a young child peeking out from behind the red carpet and catching a glimpse of her controversial outfit. ‘Should be arrested for public indecency in front of minors,’ one Reddit user wrote. ‘What if a dude did this? Would it be funny then?’. Another wrote: ‘This is actually kinda weird. All for women being free and shit but doing this when Kids are around is just weird man.’.
‘This s**t not funny at all. Kanye and his woman are sick in the head,’ wrote a third, while a fourth added: ‘If it was a man they’d be in jail.’. In California, the crime of Indecent Exposure occurs when ‘a person exposes his or her naked body or genitals in front of anyone who could be annoyed or offended by it’. To be guilty you must intentionally expose your genitals or naked body, intend to direct attention to yourself and, or intend to sexually gratify yourself or offend someone else when you do it.
A first conviction could result in a Misdemeanour sentence of six months in a county jail and, or a fine of up to $1000. A second offence will be treated as a Felony and could result in a State prison term. If convicted of Felony Indecent Exposure you must register as sex offenders for a minimum of ten years.
