Kanye West made a concerted effort to keep a low profile in Florence on Sunday, as he found himself at the center of a growing controversy surrounding an incident involving indecent exposure.
The 46-year-old rapper recently made headlines after images surfaced of him in a compromising position with Bianca Censori during their vacation in Italy last month. The incident, which involved Kanye West exposing his bare buttocks while on a boat, has led to a police investigation.
Adding to the controversy, the couple once again garnered attention during their recent stay in Italy. Bianca Censori, who has become known for her unconventional fashion choices during their Italian excursion, was spotted strolling the streets of Florence with minimal upper-body coverage. She used a purple cushion to conceal her chest.
Unfortunately, photographs have emerged of onlookers mocking the couple as they walked along the cobblestone paths of Florence.
The situation has also prompted criticism from netizens who accused West and Censori of attempting to cultivate an edgy image but falling short. One commenter expressed, “Everyone is laughing at her lol. Girl, what the hell are you thinking? Even if this is just a publicity stunt, the joke is on you!”
Another commenter remarked, “People are laughing at them. And not in a way that says, ‘Wow, look, it’s Kanye.’ It’s more like, ‘Wow, these people are in our beautiful country and think they’re really something.'”
“They believe they are being avant-garde, but the world is mocking them,” noted another observer.
Even Italian residents joined in the chorus of ridicule, expressing their disappointment with the couple’s recent antics. One person commented, “They are an embarrassment to our country. If this is for publicity, they are mistaken because all this behavior does is disgust decent people.”
“We are laughing at you,” added another.
In the midst of this controversy, Kanye West chose to keep a low profile in Florence, perhaps seeking respite from the scrutiny and criticism that has surrounded the couple’s recent actions.
