Kanye West speaks out as alleged sex tape scandal resurfaces after Bianca Censori split drama

The controversial rapper has bizarrely addressed claims that he arranged for his sex tape to be buried more than a decade ago.

Kanye West and Bianca Censori refute split rumours

Kanye West spoke out on his alleged resurfaced sex tape that came out after Hollywood fixer Kevin “KB” Blatt claimed to have stopped the video from going public.

“THAT WAS A FUN NIGHT CANT WAIT TO SEE IT AGAIN,” Ye quipped on X Friday night.

The disgraced rapper was responding to a post that shared screenshots of Blatt’s Instagram story alleging he stopped West’s sex tape from hitting the market over a decade ago.

Blatt — who is Jewish and previously worked in the online adult entertainment industry as a marketing and PR specialist — made the claims after the 47-year-old’s disturbing, antisemitic rants to X.

“Hey @ye Remember that sex tape I helped take off the market for you in 2012 … in Vegas?” Blatt, 55, captioned the post, which featured a shirtless West.

“Yeah this JEW didn’t forget about what a horrible performance and small [emoji] u had …”

West’s post is the latest in a series of bizarre social media comments which have since all been deleted. Blatt later told Page Six that he hoped to teach West “a lesson” with his Instagram attack.

The resurfaced sex tape that allegedly features West and an unknown woman came from a laptop the music producer had gifted to a family member, his cousin Lawrence Franklin claimed to the Daily Mail in December 2016.

The tape was discovered in late 2012 around the time West began dating his first wife Kim Kardashian.

West was adamant the video would not be released and allegedly dished out a large sum, over $250,000 (A$390,000) to keep it sealed, Franklin said.

The money was allegedly used to exchange and ensure no copies were made of the video.

“I had a cousin that stole my laptop that I was f**kin’ bitches on / Paid that n — a 250,000 just to get it from him / Real friends / Huh?” West raps in his 2016 song Real Friends an alleged reference to the infamous tape.

Blatt’s Instagram story came the same day West and his second wife Bianca Censori split.

The break-up followed the couple’s red-carpet appearance at the Grammy’s where Censori donned a completely see-through dress.

Censori was “exhausted” from West’s hateful rants and his decision to sell swastika merchandise on his website was the breaking point, an insider told Page Six.

“She’s been an awesome wife and awesome collaborator, she’s been through so many crazy moments, but this one may be unsurvivable.”
