Kanye West Posts Disturbing Masked Selfie—Bianca Censori Issues Chilling Warning About Instagram Hacks
Kanye West has once again left fans puzzled and concerned after posting a disturbing masked selfie to his Instagram Story—just moments before his wife, Bianca Censori, warned followers that her account has been “subject to recurring hacks.”
The 24-time Grammy winner Kanye West, who now goes by Ye, uploaded a haunting photo of himself cloaked in a perforated green mask and hoodie, concealing most of his face. The photo, part of a series including strange digital artwork and images from his recent trip to South Korea, immediately went viral across social media platforms.
Not long after, Bianca Censori took to her own Instagram Story with a cryptic message that read: “This account has been subject to recurring hacks. Anything strange is not me.”
The warning arrived amid growing confusion surrounding the couple’s erratic online behavior. Bianca Censori recently deleted most of her Instagram content, leaving only a few racy images of herself posing in white lace lingerie at a Japanese hotel—photos she claimed were taken in October 2024 by Kanye West himself. She captioned one: “Japan October 2024 shot by @ye.”
The couple’s dramatic social media activity follows their return from a sold-out concert in Shanghai, China, where Kanye West performed in front of 70,000 fans. However, the event drew criticism after he showed up more than 40 minutes late, prompting frustrated chants and refund demands from the audience.

Kanye West’s troubling posts and Bianca Censori’s hacked-account claims also come on the heels of a major legal escalation. Former assistant Lauren Pisciotta has filed an amended lawsuit accusing Kanye West of a litany of serious offences, including sexual assault, sex trafficking, battery, stalking, and false imprisonment. Lauren Pisciotta, who worked for West from 2021 to 2022, alleges the abuse occurred during a business trip in San Francisco.
Among her claims: that Kanye West forcibly kissed her, masturbated during a work session, and later pinned her down and raped her orally in a hotel bathroom. A spokesperson for the rapper has since denied the allegations in a statement to Page Six.
