Grammys 2025 nominee Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori were rumored to have been kicked out of the ceremony because they were allegedly not invited to attend. Here’s what really happened.

Kanye West and his wife Bianca Censori were not kicked out of the 2025 Grammys on Sunday, despite reports, PEOPLE confirms. Rather, the rapper was nominated and walked the carpet then chose to get in his car and leave.

Kanye West publicly criticized Don Lemon — and even called him a "goofball" — for (falsely) reporting that he and Bianca Censori were kicked out of the 2025 Grammys. However, the journalist denied being at fault in a subsequent response of his own on Monday.
