Kanye West’s estranged wife, Bianca Censori, has vehemently denied allegations that she sent pornographic material to a minor Yeezy employee. This comes after West was sued by several former employees who claimed a hostile work environment.
Milo Yiannopoulos, West’s former chief of staff, issued a statement to Page Six on July 1st, on behalf of Censori, stating that any allegation suggesting she showed or caused pornographic material to be shown to minors is “offensive, disgusting, abhorrent and categorically and wholly false.”
Yiannopoulos, 39, further dismissed the claims made by the accuser, stating that the person was never employed by Yeezy and referred to their accusations as a “tragic, desperate, and attention-seeking lie.”
According to Yiannopoulos, the allegations against Censori, 29, are baseless and stem from a non-existent “Yeezy Porn” venture. He added that he resigned from West’s team in May due to his disagreement with the rapper’s plans to launch an adult film studio.
Censori was named in a lawsuit filed last month by eight former YZYVSN employees, aged 14 to 25, who alleged a hostile work environment, unpaid wages, discrimination, and more while developing an app for West. The lawsuit comes after Censori and West’s surprise marriage in January 2023, following his highly publicized divorce from Kim Kardashian.
In the court documents obtained by Us Weekly, the former employees claimed they were subjected to long working hours without pay and were called “slaves” and “new slaves” in the company’s Discord channel. They further described the work environment as “hostile,” with app developers allegedly facing bullying based on their race, gender, age, and sexual orientation.

The lawsuit also accused Censori of sending “a YZYVSN worker a file-sharing link containing explicit content.” This allegedly occurred after West expressed interest in starting an adult film venture called “Yeezy Porn” in April.
Yiannopoulos, who is also named in the suit, took to Twitter on June 29th to refute the claims, calling the lawsuit a “joke” filed by a “disgruntled” former employee who was upset about not receiving a full-time position with Yeezy.
The former employees are seeking compensation for unpaid wages, attorney fees, and damages for emotional distress.
