Kanye West’s recent antics at the Grammys have cost him dearly in Japan, where he has reportedly lost a lucrative $20 million deal to perform. Sources in Tokyo revealed that West’s planned shows at the Tokyo Dome in May have been canceled following his controversial nude stunt with Bianca Censori on the Grammy red carpet. The incident, described as “creepy” and “beyond belief,” has sparked outrage and led investors to withdraw their support, citing cultural insensitivity and a misjudgment of Japanese tolerance.
According to insiders, West’s behavior has not only alienated Japanese investors but also drawn criticism from his American peers for its disrespectfulness, particularly given the context of recent events in Los Angeles. His focus on launching a cryptocurrency and personal projects appears to have overshadowed professional commitments, including the delayed release of his album “Bully.”
Meanwhile, speculation swirls about West’s relationship with Censori, whom he reportedly dictates wardrobe choices and lifestyle rules. Their public displays have drawn scrutiny, with concerns raised about the dynamics of their partnership. Despite these controversies, West continues to navigate a tumultuous career amidst personal and professional challenges.
