Kanye “Ye” West has been on a streak of erratic public behavior since February 2025, when his wife Bianca Censori attended the Grammys naked. They’ve since been rumored to be getting divorced, although things seemed alright with the couple during the chaotic screening that the rapper hosted for his wife’s film debut.
Amid their marital issues, Ye also confirmed that he was still working on starting an adult film company. Bianca, who comes from a “gangster” family, was reportedly in on the musician‘s new project. But long before that, Ye had already admitted to being addicted to sexual content. Here’s a closer look at his scandalous ties with adult entertainment.
Kanye West’s Foray Into Adult Entertainment Is Reportedly Due To Money Issues
Kanye West Plans To “Hand Half” Of His Adult Film Business To Bianca Censori
In April 2024, Ye first announced his adult film company plans on X (formerly Twitter), saying: “YEEZY P*** IS C**MING 4 24 24.” At that time, he said he was in talks with adult film producer, Mike Moz (Stormy Daniels’ ex) for “casting and art direction.” But people hadn’t heard about the project again until February 21, 2025, when Ye confirmed, “It’s still c**ming.”

Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori made “inappropriate” requests to Yeezy’s former designer.
A month after the announcement, Bianca was reportedly “freaking out” about her husband’s sleazy venture. “He’s been strutting her around and dressing her like she’s a p*** star—and now she knows why!” an insider told InTouch Weekly in May 2024. But her feelings about the business seemingly changed in the past year.
But recently, a source told Radar Online that Ye believes venturing into adult entertainment is “his ticket back to making money,” as well as winning Bianca back as he plans to “hand her half the business.” They claimed that this time, the Australian native “isn’t against this the way people have assumed” because “she’s way kinkier than people think.”
Ye previously admitted to having “a full-on p***ographic addiction,” which started when he found a copy of his dad’s Playboy at age five.
While others turn to substances during tragic times, the Yeezy founder began to “drown myself in my addiction: sex,” after his mom passed away in 2007. “It has impacted every choice I have made in my life from age five to now, having to kick the habit,” Ye told Beat 1‘s Zane Lowe in 2019.

Howard Stern Faced Backlash When He Called Out Kanye West’s Antisemitic Rants
Howard Stern didn’t mince his words about Kanye West’s racist remarks.
It was “a complete shock” to Nicki because she thought she had Ye “all figured out.” Clearly, she didn’t. She thought he “wouldn’t want girls to be dressed overtly sexy” coming into their first meeting.
“He was watching p*** when we were in the studio—no shame in his game,” Nicki said of her experience working with Ye.
Ye also played smut on loop for hours, causing Daft Punk to “hallucinate” while recording their hit track, “Stronger.” What’s even weirder was the time rapper, Ninja of Die Antwoord blocked Ye after he played an “a** sex video” mid-conversation about a potential music collaboration.
Ye once addressed his creepy quirk on Kocktails With Khloé hosted by his then-sister-in-law, Khloé Kardashian. He said he “never watched p*** with the sound on.” He’s watched too much of it, he just watches it for the plot, he said. During the episode, Kim joked, “He probably watches Japanese anime p***.”

Here’s How Much Bianca Censori Would Get In Her Divorce From Kanye West
Without a prenup, Bianca Censori could be looking at a huge payout from her rumored divorce with Kanye West.
He added that it was his “mentality” before getting engaged to Alexis Phifer, his blueprint for his long history of picking outfits for his future partners. In 2022, Ye even blamed his adult film addiction for “destroying his family” with Kim.
“Don’t let Kris [Jenner] make you do playboy like she made [Kylie Jenner] and Kim do,” he wrote on Instagram back then, addressing Kylie’s ex-assistant, Victoria Villarroel.
In 2013, Ye confirmed to W that he had made a sex tape with a young Kim Kardashian lookalike and paid to keep it private.
Toward the end of their marriage, Ye famously told Kim that her being “too sexy” was affecting his soul. The “I Wonder” performer went on to express concerns about the future of his two daughters, North and Chicago West.
“Hollywood is a giant brothel … P***ography destroyed my family … I deal with the addiction … Instagram promotes it … Not gonna let it happen to Northy and Chicago,” he wrote.
At that time, Ye called out Kim for letting North post TikToks. They’ve since managed to maintain a healthy co-parenting relationship, with the reality TV star monitoring her daughter’s posts. Unfortunately, their son Saint had a YouTube scandal, sharing anti-Kamala Harris videos during the 2024 elections.
