Kanye West loses his composure and berates photographer who asks about his control over Bianca Censori
Kanye West snatched a paparazzi’s phone out of her hand after she asked him if his wife, Bianca Censori, has any “free will.”
The incident, which was captured in a video by TMZ, occurred while the “Flashing Lights” rapper was on his way to Charlie Wilson’s Walk of Fame ceremony on Hollywood Boulevard Monday.
In the video, the pap approached West from behind, asking him, “People want to know if Bianca has her free will, some people are saying you’re controlling her…”
However, before she was able to finish her sentence, the rapper turned to face her and snatched the phone out of her hands.
Despite the screen going black, he could be heard telling her, “Don’t come at me with that dumbass s–t, I’m a person. Are you crazy?”
He continued, “I’m a legend, I’m here to support Charlie Wilson and you come ask me some dumbass s–t about my wife. That’s my wife.”
West, 49, continued to berate the reporter asking if she had any “free will” or if she “works for the devil.”
While the pap begged for her phone back, several people could be heard attempting to de-escalate the situation — to no avail.
You asked me if my wife had free will. Was that a dumbass, disrespectful question to ask a grown-ass superhero,” West continued.
“Was that wrong or right? he added. “Answer the question, I’m supposed to answer your questions, answer my questions.”
Before backing down, West then offered the reporter a job, even going as far as saying he would pay double her salary.
The interaction comes after reports surfaced that West has banned his wife from using social media for her protection.
Per the Daily Mail, the rapper allegedly prohibits Censori, 29, from using the apps to avoid negative comments. However, this move has
“isolated” her.
“Bianca has always had social media and she was active on it — until she married Kanye,” a source told the outlet.
