Kanye West Jokes About Punching Man Accused of Assaulting Wife

Kanye West Talks About Punching Man Accused of Assaulting Wife

Kanye West recently made light of a serious incident involving him punching a man accused of sexually assaulting his wife, Bianca Censori, at the Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles. During an interview on The Download podcast, West recounted the incident, stating that although he didn’t witness the alleged assault, Censori described it to him.

According to Kanye West, he confronted the man and attempted to have security escort him out of the premises but was unsuccessful. He then joked about the encounter, stating, “He saw it wasn’t okay. He had to go to bed early… I tucked this n**** in.” West’s remarks indicate that he physically intervened in the situation.

Reports suggest that the man West punched was one of the twin brothers, Mark and Jonnie Houston, who are well-known restaurateurs in Los Angeles. However, sources claim that West may have mistaken one brother for the other.

While West’s chief of staff, Milo Yiannopoulos, asserted that Bianca Censori was “battered and sexually assaulted,” eyewitnesses have provided conflicting accounts. Some witnesses report that the man merely bumped into Censori in the crowded club lobby, while others corroborate Yiannopoulos’s claim of assault.

Yiannopoulos stated, “The assailant didn’t merely collide into her. He put his hands under her dress, directly on her body, he grabbed her waist, he spun her around, and then he blew her kisses. She was battered and sexually assaulted.” However, the alleged victim did not sustain severe injuries and did not require hospital treatment.

Following the incident, Kanye West and Bianca Censori left the Chateau Marmont before the police arrived, prompting an investigation into the matter. The podcast interview sheds light on West’s perspective on the incident, although his remarks have drawn criticism for making light of a serious allegation.

As the investigation continues, the incident raises questions about the appropriate response to allegations of assault and highlights the complexities surrounding such situations, especially in high-profile settings like the Chateau Marmont.
