KANYE West has resorted to paying wife Bianca Censori to wear her head-turning outfits, a source close to the couple has told The U.S. Sun.
Bianca, 30, is never shy and has regularly shocked onlookers with her barely-there look.
BUSINESS PROPOSITION
But when she stepped out in New York City at the weekend in a scarcely believable candy bra and thong set paired with silver stilettos, Bianca took her wild wardrobe to the next level.
An insider, however, has told The U.S. Sun said that the controversial rapper’s “obsession” with outfit ideas for his wife has forced him to fork out up to $400,000 to make it all happen.
The sugary set ended up costing Kanye $100,000, per the source.
The source claimed the idea was pitched earlier in the week and Bianca refused point-blank unless her husband paid up.
Ye, added the insider, is dressing her up in the most extravagant outfits to not only keep his “edgy persona” firmly in the public eye, but to make sure everyone thinks “she’s the sexiest woman alive.”
It’s not the first time Bianca’s body has doubled as a billboard.
Last week in Los Angeles, she strutted through the streets in a sheer nude bodysuit with no bra and furry white boots.
The outfit left little to the imagination—and jaws on the floor.
“Bianca has figured out how to turn all this into her advantage,” the source told The U.S. Sun. “A lot of the outfits aren’t to her taste. But she tells him she will wear them – if she’s paid.”
PAY TO PLAY
Kanye was reportedly upset initially but is now happy to oblige.
He allegedly wanted to offer his wife of two years a yearly salary.
But the Australian born beauty prefers to be paid on a “per look or event” basis.
“She’s essentially monetizing her image,” added the source who believes she has made almost $3 million since the arrangement started and was paid $120,000 to join her husband in a naked dress at the Grammys in February.
Bianca allegedly draws the line at anything political and some ideas have been turned down.
She doesn’t want to be tied to some of the distasteful social media posts which have effectively seen Kanye cancelled in most parts of the world.
There was an alleged attempt to wear something with a political message tied to his disgraced friend Sean “Diddy” Combs – but it was shut down immediately.
But the 30 year-old knows just how valuable she is to keeping him relevant and in the spotlight.
“She knows she’s essential to his image,” the source continued. “She wants her slice of the cake. She’s being smart about it.”
The U.S. Sun revealed in April that Bianca was being approached by numerous fashion houses to work in ambassadorial roles, only for the advances to be knocked back by Kanye.
And we also disclosed earlier this month that she officially launched her first U.S. company, Bianca Censori Inc.
The paperwork was filed in California, but Bianca registered her full name as a business entity in her hometown of Alphington, one of Melbourne’s wealthiest suburbs.
“She knows exactly what she’s doing,” a second insider says. “She’s turning every outfit into a paycheck. Kanye’s obsessed with styling her, but she’s the one calling the shots.
“Bianca is a celebrity in her own right now. The truth is he needs her. Without her bold looks and presence, people wouldn’t pay nearly as much attention to him.
“She is in control and making serious money doing it.”
The U.S. Sun contacted a representative for Kanye and Bianca.
