Kanye West has reportedly banned his wife Bianca Censori from using social media for her own “protection.”
The Jesus Walks rapper is said to be keeping Censori from interacting with others on social media platforms in a bid to avoid negative comments, however sources close to the pair tell Daily Mail it’s a way of further “isolating” her from reality.
“Bianca has always had social media and she was active on it — until she married Kanye,” an insider told the outlet.
“He doesn’t want her to have it because he thinks that it will hurt her if she had to read the nasty things that people say.”
“He convinced her that, since she is a star now, she has to remain a mystery and it is creepy to those who know her as it feels like another form of control,” the source added.
It’s said that Censori’s friends claim she needs protection after the rapper found himself in hot water for posting outrageously explicit photos of her on his own social media account.
“He is pushing her nakedness all over his own [account] so that he can control her narrative. It is disturbing, and by shutting her off from the world he is causing her to become more and more isolated,” a source told the outlet.
The 29-year-old’s friends reportedly claim that the “strong” Censori they once knew has “seemingly vanished once again.”
“She is wearing what he wants, going where he wants and doing what he wants because she really has no other choice,” insiders told the outlet. “She went from being his designer to his wife, which is unfortunately, not a paid position. She’s trapped.”
Page Six has reached out to West’s reps for comment.
It’s previously been reported that people close to Censori have been worried about her for months.
“Bianca is stuck, and her friends are trying to save her, but no one can because of the blockades Kanye has put up [around her],” a source told the Daily Mail in September 2023.
“Everyone is extremely concerned. This isn’t who she is. She is an incredibly outspoken and lively person who is never one to keep her mouth shut.”
An insider then shared a few days later that friends had reportedly been able to make contact with Censori to express their opinions but she was not interested in listening to them.
The following month, a source revealed just how much say West has over what Censori does or wears.
Earlier this month, West was accused of brainwashing Censori after sharing a revealing photo of her while cooking in the kitchen.
“Cream of wheat,” the father of four, 46, captioned a photo on Instagram of his wife wearing only a leather face mask, black boots and a risqué swimsuit that fully showcased her behind.
Naturally, the post sparked outrage among fans, who rushed to the comments section to put the rapper on blast.
