    Kanye West has hit out at critics of his wife's naked Grammys stunt

    The rapper, 47, and his model partner Bianca Censori, 30, sparked a storm when she stripped off her fur coat on the 2025 awards' red carpet to reveal her nude body under a see-through dress, and Kanye has since launched into a new anti-Semitic rant on social media in which he said he loved Hitler and was a Nazi


    As part of his latest outburst he said haters of the Grammys controversy were "dumb" and "laaame".

    In his latest outrageous online rant, he said: "IM A NAZI" and "I LOVE HITLER," before later adding: "Hitler was sooooo fresh."

    He continued: "I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT THE F*** ANTI SEMETIC MEANS."

    The rapper was widely condemned for similar remarks in 2022, which led to him being dropped by major brands including GAP and Adidas.

    In an interview that year with conspiracy theorist Alex Jones he dec lared: "I like Hitler."

    Kanye's latest social media spree also included comments about his wife.

    He wrote: "I HAVE DOMINION OVER MY WIFE THIS AINT NO WOKE AS FEMINIST S***. YES I DONT MAKE HER DO NOTHING SHE DOESN'T WANT TO BUT SHE DEFINITELY WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO IT WITHOUT MY APPROVAL."

    In another series of posts, Kanye called for the release of Sean 'Diddy' Combs, 55, who is currently awaiting trial on sex trafficking and racketeering charges, all of which he denies.

    The rapper, who has previously been an outspoken supporter of Donald Trump, tagged the former president in a post, reading: "PLEASE FREE MY BROTHER PUFF."

    He described Combs as his "idol" and "hero", writing: "Puff we love you."

    West also used the controversy to promote his new fashion project.

    On the Yeezy website, he announced a collaboration with Combs' brand, Sean John, selling shirts for £17 each. He wrote: "YEEZY SEAN JOHN COLLAB AVAILABLE @ YEEZY.COM ME AND PUFF SPLITTING THIS 50/50 LIKE WE DISCUSSED BEFORE THEY LOCKED HIM UP."

    Combs' Instagram account later shared a post thanking West.
