On Censori's 29th birthday on January 5, 2024, Kanye West posted several unreleased pictures of Censori on Instagram along with the caption: “Happy birthday to the most beautiful super bad iconic muse inspirational talented artist masters degree in architecture 140 IQ loving by my side everyday when half the world turned their backs on me and the most amazing step mom to our children I love you so much thank you for sharing your life with me.” [14] The same day, West posted a picture of Censori, wearing a Vultures sweatshirt and furry white boots, with the caption: “I miss you when I wake up before you."

In January 2024, West said on his Instagram account that she would be with "no pants" in 2024, and in February 2024 there were concerns expressed when she was photographed out in public in the nude except for a see-through raincoat.

[16] During the development of the YZY APP by Yeezy, Censori allegedly sent an employee a file-sharing link containing explicit sexual content. These materials were accessible to minors working on the app, exposing them to inappropriate content during their development on the project. [17] Milo Yiannapoulos stated in a TMZ Interview that "he's been authorized by Bianca to stress the allegations against her are offensive, disgusting, abhorrent, and wholly false." [18]
