Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, and his wife, Bianca Censori, are making waves on social media after Bianca was spotted wearing the infamous candy lingerie and walking alongside West in an outing in Brooklyn on June 21, 2025.

A source told the US Sun that Bianca agreed to wear the candy ensemble in public after West paid her $100,000. Reportedly, Bianca initially refused to wear it, but then agreed after West paid her.

This was not the first time that Bianca was spotted wearing something bold. Previously, she made headlines several times, including the time when she wore a skin-tight sheer dress on the red carpet at the Grammy Awards 2025.


Ye pays Bianca $100,000 for her latest bold appearance

Bianca Censori was recently spotted wearing a lingerie made of candies, and silver stilettos as she and West were heading to the Mercer Hotel in New York's Soho district.

A source told the US Sun that Kanye's obsession with dressing up Bianca in bold outfits has led him to pay her an amount of up to $400,000. The source also said that West does this to keep his own edgy and attention-grabbing image alive and to make people believe that Bianca is the 'sexiest woman alive.'

The source then also added that although Bianca has to wear such bold outfits, she has found a way to benefit herself. Such outfits are not her choice, but she wears them if West pays her for it. Initially, the Grammy Award winner did not like the idea of paying Bianca for each outfit, but now he's okay with it. This way, Bianca is making money out of her public appearances and, till now, has made around $3 million.

West’s rep gave a statement to Page Six poking fun at the candy lingrie. This is what they said:

''West negotiated a fee of $250,000 to wear this outfit on account of creative differences regarding the upper breast-bearing pylons. Bianca felt the candy produced a potentially unflattering shadow line, but Ye was not prepared to sacrifice olfactory experience.''

The statement continues:

''Everything was fine until Ye asked for the garment back last night, to exchange it for cash, whereupon it was discovered that the glut of sugar calories prickling and taunting her all afternoon had proven too much for Ms. Censori to resist. I am told by the seamstresses that nothing remains of the lower section of the garment—not even the string. The fate of the quarter million dollars is not known.''

A second source said this about Bianca's take on such appearances:

“She knows exactly what she’s doing. She’s turning every outfit into a paycheck. Kanye’s obsessed with styling her, but she’s the one calling the shots...The truth is, he needs her. Without her bold looks and presence, people wouldn’t pay nearly as much attention to him.”

As per reports, West had paid Bianca $120,000 to wear the see-through dress at the Grammys in February.
