Dolmayan urged West to “show some class,” emphasizing the need to protect one’s partner. Fans of the rapper also expressed mixed reactions, some questioning West’s morality shift.
John Dolmayan Asks Kanye West To ‘Show Some Class’ Over Scantily Clad Photos Of His Wife
On January 6, West celebrated his wife Censori’s 29th birthday with a series of heartfelt Instagram posts of her scantily dressed, praising her as a “beautiful super bad iconic muse, inspirational talented artist, [with a] masters degree in architecture [&] 140 IQ.”
However, the drummer for System of a Down, John Dolmayan, criticized West’s approach. Dolmayan commented, per The Messenger, “Show some class, man.”
He emphasized the need for dignity and protection of one’s partner, adding: “You have kids who look to you for moral guidance, and this is supposed to be the person you protect the most. Your wife isn’t supposed to be your trophy, she’s your place of pride and dignity. This isn’t the way.”
When a fan attempted to defend West, the “Chop Suey!” singer stood firm on his opinions. He responded, “Would you show pictures of your wife’s t— to your friends? Your parents? If so you and I don’t see things the same way and no amount of explaining will change that. Good luck to you.”
Fans React To Kanye’s Birthday Tribute To His Wife, Bianca Censori
Commenters on West’s Instagram post expressed mixed reactions to his birthday tribute to his wife Bianca Censori. One user criticized West’s morals, saying, “You told Kim to start dressing more decent… and now this… make up your mind what your morals are.”
Another voiced disappointment, stating, “I can’t defend it anymore man. I was REALLLLY pulling for you when you claimed Christianity and you were doing Sunday Services. This just ain’t it man… and it’s just sad.”
Some questioned the necessity of such photos, adding, “This isn’t necessary. If you’re forcing her to wear this, then shame on you. This isn’t Christlike. She should be allowed to wear clothes and not objectified.”
A supporter defended the “Love Lockdown” rapper, arguing, “Yall crying about this but can’t grasp the fact that she wanted to dress up like this. The same people who hype up women who do Onlyfans for ‘independence.’”
Kanye West Apologizes To The Jewish Community
West’s post comes after he issued a public apology in Hebrew to the Jewish community following a series of controversial incidents, including rapping anti-Semitic lyrics in Dubai and making offensive comments about Hitler in Las Vegas.
Taking to Instagram, the rapper expressed regret, writing, “I sincerely apologize to the Jewish community for any ‘unintended outburst’ caused by my words or actions. It was not my intention to hurt or demean.”
He continued, “I deeply regret any pain I may have caused. I am committed to starting with myself and learning from this experience to ensure greater sensitivity and understanding in the future.”
“Your forgiveness is important to me and I am committed to making amends and promoting unity,” he concluded his apology.
Bianca Censori Reportedly Made Her Husband Apologize
An insider shared with the Daily Mail that West’s recent apology to the Jewish community was prompted by his wife, Censori, who allegedly “laid the smackdown on him.”
According to the sources, Censori “was tired of having to babysit Kanye.” They said, “She told him that his recent behavior was unacceptable and that he needs to apologize because he was putting them in danger and setting a horrible example for his children.”
“Bianca is really sick of his attention seeking and she knows that this is not who he truly is, but it is making her look like she is anti-Semitic which is so far from the truth,” the source added. “She has many Jewish friends who she loves dearly and he knows this.”
“It is very upsetting to Bianca and he does it anyway. He just waits until she is gone. By the time that she finds out what he’s done and said, it is too late,” the insider claimed.
They also noted that Censori fears for her and her husband’s safety, and worries a “Jewish extremist could potentially do something to hurt both of them.”
