Don Lemon pokes fun at Bianca Censori’s Grammys look amid Kanye West beef

Don Lemon imitated Kanye West’s wife Bianca Censori’s shocking Grammys 2025 red carpet stunt while walking in a fashion show Tuesday.

The former CNN host strutted his stuff at the Blue Jacket Fashion Show in New York City on Tuesday, where he poked fun at the viral incident, per a video shared by the Daily Mail.

Lemon walked the runway with a light pink dress shirt and white slacks with a black overcoat, but when he got to the end of the runway, he shed the coat.

Lemon, 58, turned his back to the crowd and slowly shimmied off the outerwear while coyly looking over his shoulder.

“Anybody know what I’m doing?” Lemon asked the crowd. “Kanye’s wife!”

The “Don Lemon Show” host then put the black coat back on and finished walking up the rest of the runway.

Lemon was referring to Censori’s viral stunt at the Grammys 2025 red carpet on Sunday, where she unexpectedly showed up with West, 47.

Censori, 30, initially showed up in a black fur coat, but she turned her back to the cameras and dropped the jacket.

The former Yeezy employee revealed that she was wearing a completely see-through dress with nothing else on underneath.

After walking the red carpet, the couple scurried off in a car and didn’t attend the award show.

One insider told Page Six that cops escorted them out for the daring look, while another insisted that they voluntarily left.

Meanwhile, another source told us that the “Gold Digger” rapper was trying to “replicate” his “Vultures 1” album cover, which shows Censori posing from behind with a small piece of fabric covering her back.

West hasn’t revealed the inspiration behind the incident per se, but he briefly spoke up on Monday and specifically called out Lemon, claiming the anchor “started the rumor” that he and Censori were kicked out.

“This the goofball that started the rumor that me and my wife got kicked out the Grammies [sic],” he captioned a since-deleted photo of Lemon smiling via Instagram Monday.

Lemon wasted no time in responding and claimed that he was actually correcting reports making the accusation.

“I did not start a rumor about you being kicked out of the Grammys. I actually corrected it. I saw someone on your team who asked me to correct it because it had been reported everywhere,” he said in a video posted on Instagram Monday.

“Get your s–t straight. You, of all people, calling me a c—n? … That ‘Make America Great Again’ hat must be too tight on your head,” he continued.
