Following their indecent exposure fiasco in Italy last week, Kanye West and his Australian 'wife' Bianca Censori have been permanently barred from renting boats in Venice.Read full article
Last Monday, the couple made headlines when they were seen having an intimate moment on a water taxi in Venice, with West baring his buttocks in front of curious tourists.
Photographs of the couple showed the American rapper, 46, sitting in the back of the river taxi as his alleged Australian wife, 28, rested her head on his lap.
The company that rented the boat to West and Censori, Venezia Turismo Motoscafi, has recently revealed in an exclusive interview with Daily Mail Australia that the couple is 'no longer welcome' on their boats.
The company issued a statement denouncing the duo's lewd behaviour and admitting it was 'totally unaware' of what happened on the boat where the images were taken.
The driver inside had to watch out for oncoming traffic and failed to notice these expletives. If this had occurred, he would have disembarked right away and denounced the offenders to those in charge.
Additionally, there was a third passenger in the taxi who was travelling with Mr. and Mrs. West and who, in any case, obstructs the captain's vision to the stern.
The third individual was a woman who had previously been seen with West and Censori on their trip to Italy.
The corporation continued by condemning the couple's explicit behaviour and declaring: "We completely dissociate ourselves from such acts and behaviour."
"Mr. West and his wife will undoubtedly no longer be welcome on board our company's boats," they continued.
Lady Gaga, Harry Styles, Florence Pugh, Jennifer Lopez, and Ben Affleck are just a few of the famous people who have travelled with Venezia Turismo Motoscafi, one of Venice's top private navigation firms.
It follows accusations made by internet detractors that Kanye's exhibition of bare skin constituted "public indecency," a crime punishable by a fine of up to €309 (AU$520), according to the Italian Constitutional Court.
How are these two not detained for engaging in obscene behaviour? One commenter expressed displeasure, and another concurred: "Public obscenity! Save it for your personal use only at home.
Another person chimed in, saying, "Italian authorities ought to arrest them for indecency conducting that filthy and repulsive behaviour in public. Kids certainly saw the crowds, which are evident.
Another person voiced the following complaint: "What's wrong with them? Perhaps it is time for the authorities to intervene, as another person remarked. "Why won't the Italian government police or someone stop them?"
Other people claimed the pornographic display was 'disrespectful' to the country's traditional Catholic citizens.
One person bemoaned, "This kind of stupid stunt is what helps paint all Americans as having zero class or respect."
I hope these two are taken into custody by the authorities for their stupid actions. Another person chimed in, "They are disgracing the nation.
Other worried admirers have questioned whether the peculiar act is evidence that the rapper is "controlling" Bianca.
Is it not obvious that both of these people require assistance? Where is this woman's family, and there must be people who care about Kanye's wellbeing,' one person remarked.
The poor girl. She doesn't appear joyful,' said someone else, adding that she "looks miserable."
Another follower wrote: "How embarrassing for you. Bianca needs to get out of that sick relationship." That poor woman needs assistance. She seemed depressed. Free Bianca!
For the explicit exhibition, one user called Kanye a "sicko."
Censori was wearing a knee-length trench coat and a pair of nude heels, while West was dressed in an all-black outfit from head to toe before getting on the boat.
However, as soon as they boarded, both removed their outerwear. Censori wore a strapless nude-colored dress instead of her coat, while West undid his trousers to reveal his bare behind.
Censori laid her elbows on his knees, holding her head as they went down the river, and it seemed that things were getting extremely heated.
Locals have been outraged by West and Censor's bizarre attire choices while on vacation in Italy over the past month. Censori has come under particular fire for "going around virtually naked" in the traditionally Catholic nation.
The brunette has made multiple public appearances wearing see-through mesh clothing that makes her naked breasts very obvious.
One of them required her to wear a black cross-body bag over her nipples because of the outlandish nude catsuit.
Major travel website CIU Travel claims that seeing tourists "wandering the streets in varying states of undress" is "offensive" to the locals.
Walking around in beach wear or, worse still, shirtless is a big no-no in Italy, unless you have your feet firmly planted on the sand, according to the website.
It is unknown if West or Censori will receive any sort of formal penalty for their most outrageous act.
The fashion designer and his new muse initially became romantically involved in January 2023, just a few months after the divorce decree that is widely considered to be the inspiration for all of Censori's current and contentious styles.
About two months after the rapper's divorce from Kim Kardashian was finalised, the couple wed in a secret ceremony in Beverly Hills.
However, because they failed to file a marriage certificate, the legitimacy of their relationship is in doubt.
After six years of marriage, Kardashian previously filed for divorce in February 2021.
West frequently referred to her as his "muse" and had a big effect on her style throughout their lengthy relationship.
The ex-couple are parents to four kids: North, 10, Saint, 7, Chicago, 5, and Psalm, 4.
