Kanye West Brags About 'Beating The Grammys' & Has Stats To Prove It

Kanye West‘s plan to overshadow the 2025 Grammy Awards worked to perfection, it seems.

The Chicago rap legend was nominated for one award — Best Rap Song for “Carnival” — but it was his red carpet antics that stole the headlines as his wife Bianca Censori wore a see-through outfit that exposed her naked body to the world.

In a series of since-deleted Instagram posts on Tuesday (February 4), Ye boasted that he and his bride of three years had “beat the Grammies [sic].”

He backed up this bold claim by sharing stats showing Google searches for “Bianca censori grammys” far outnumbering searches for “Grammy winners 2025,” as well as other trending terms such as “kendrick lamar grammys” and “beyonce grammys.”

“For clarity. February 4th 2025. My wife is the most Googled person on the planet called Earth,” he bragged in a follow-up post.

Kanye’s controversial Grammys appearance also caused a stir thanks to rumors that he and Censori were kicked out of the ceremony due to her provocative wardrobe choice.

The speculation turned out to be untrue, with a source close to the Grammys telling Variety that the rapper and fashion designer simply “walked the carpet, got in his car and left” with his wife.

However, that did not stop him from accusing Don Lemon — who had discussed the rumors in a video posted online — of starting the false story.

“This the goofball that started the rumor that me and my wife got kicked out of the Grammies 3 decades of innovating music and they always KOONS like this,” he wrote in an Instagram post after the awards.

The former CNN host did not take the shot lying down, hitting back: “Kanye… Yee… Ye — whatever your name is. I did not start a rumor about you being kicked out of the Grammys. I actually corrected it. I saw someone on your team who asked me to correct it because it had been reported everywhere.

“So first of all, get your shit straight. And you, of all people, calling me a coon [laughs]. Negro, that Make America Great Again hat must be too tight on your head.”

Kanye West may have won the Google search contest, he did not take away from a historic night for several of his peers.

Kendrick Lamar‘s “Not Like Us” won all five awards it was nominated for, including Song of the Year and Record of the Year, while Beyoncé finally won Album of the Year for the first time in her career.

Doechii also put her stamp on things, taking home Best Rap Album for Alligator Bites Never Heal and delivering one of the night’s most electrifying performances.
