Katy Perry shocked onlookers as she arrived to the Balenciaga show in Paris on Wednesday wearing nothing under a fur coat on. The singer, 39, set pulses racing by going braless in the revealing look for her latest appearance at Haute Couture Fashion Week in the French capital. But fans quickly accused the pop star of copying Kayne West’s wife Bianca Censori, who is known for stepping out in similar revealing ensembles.
‘Everyone is copying Bianca! I personally think its a strange look, but she started this trend and and now everyone is copying her! It’s so unoriginal, borrrring,’ one said.
‘Sorry Katy, Bianca’s been there and done that,’ another person commented.
‘What is up with these Hollywood types – Bianca Censori, now her… Sad these women are unable to age gracefully, clinging onto a perverted world. A person’s value is more than a body!’ a third wrote.
Another agreed, adding: ‘Oh my God, she’s actually copying Kayne West’s coerced wife look to get herself in the papers.’
‘She’s joined Kanye’s clan!! I always for some reason thought KP was a sensible young woman but between her ‘weight loss’ and mode of dress, I was wrong,’ one said.
‘Katy…You in competition with Kanye’s Parade Me Around wifey?’ one questioned.
Another wrote: ‘When Kanye’s wife started parading around virtually naked everyone gasped in horror but it seems to be catching on. What’s next? X-rays of their internal organs fashioned into dresses because I feel like that’s the only part of their bodies we haven’t seen.’
Bianca has become known for her risqué outfits and most recently stepped out in an ultra-revealing ensemble in which she eschewed a top in favour of bandage-like halter suspenders that only covered her nipples. Her husband Kayne was previously married to Kim Kardashian. During their tumultuous marriage, Kim was reportedly asked to change her outfits if he felt like she was showing too much skin. He heavily influenced her fashion choices during their seven-year marriage.
‘Kanye did the same thing he is doing with Bianca to Kim throughout their marriage. The difference is that when Kanye dressed Kim, he was respected as a person – as an artist,’ one source said.
‘Unfortunately, Kim knows what Bianca is going through – but she feels Bianca should have known what she was getting into.’ Kim said in a previous episode of the Kardashians: ‘Kanye has always dressed me. In the early 2000s, he would literally just send me random emails with all these looks and what my style should be.’ He once told her: ‘You are my wife, and it affects me when your pictures are too sexy.’ Kim filed for divorce in February 2021 just before what would have been the pair’s seventh wedding anniversary. The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star, who was represented by divorce attorney Laura Wasser, was declared legally single March 2022 while in the midst of a romance with now-ex boyfriend SNL alum Pete Davidson. In November 2022, Kim and Kanye’s divorce was finalised, with Kanye agreeing to pay $200,000 a month in child support and equal custody. Kanye married Yeezy architect Bianca in January 2023 in what was thought a non-legal wedding as it appeared they did not file for a marriage certificate. However in mid-October 2023, it was reported that they did in fact get legally married and that it took place the year before due to ‘religious reasons,’ per Us Weekly.
