Kanye West went completely in disguise to a fashion show but couldn’t resist revealing himself by getting up and dancing when one of his own songs played.
The 45-year-old controversial rapper – who recently said watching Jonah Hill‘s 21 Jump Street made him ‘like Jewish people again’ – donned a black hoodie with a matching face mask as he sat front row at the Fear Of God fashion show at the iconic Hollywood Bowl on Wednesday night.
Though he went incognito, he got up and busted a move as his track Feel The Love with Kid Cudi for their group Kids See Ghost played.
He was not alone as he was joined by another person completely covered up as it is assumed to be his new ‘wife’ Bianca Censori, 28.
Fear Of God is an American high fashion label from designer Jerry Lorenzo who is close friends with Kanye.

Lorenzo, 45, has been a vocal supporter of the fellow fashion designer despite being accused of antisemitism.
Back in January, the Essentials founder – who has a collaboration deal with Adidas – spoke out on Kanye being dropped from from the sportswear giant.
Lorenzo said: ‘Ye… Adi ain’t the same without you.’
Meanwhile Ye’s relationship with Aussie Bianca seems to be going well.
The couple said ‘I do’ in January in a private, secret ceremony, and the rapper was soon seen with a wedding band on his ring finger.
Although the two have yet to file for a marriage certificate to officially legalize their nuptials, Kanye has worn the ring to signify his ‘commitment’ to Bianca, according to TMZ.
To the shock of fans, it was revealed in January that West had married his Yeezy employee Bianca Censori who joined the company in November 2020.
She is listed as Head of Architecture and secured the position after obtaining a Master’s in building design at Melbourne University in Australia.

Interesting: The couple said ‘I do’ in January in a private , secret ceremony, and the rapper was soon seen with a wedding band on his ring finger; they are seen together in LA last month
Despite the wedding ceremony, the union isn’t legal because the pair do not appear to have filed a marriage certificate, DailyMail.com reported at the time.
The duo have been photographed wearing wedding bands since the story broke, though knowledge about how long the pair had been dating remains unclear.
This comes less than a month after Kanye revealed watching Jonah Hill‘s film 21 Jump Street made him ‘like Jewish people again’ following his anti-Semitic Twitter tirade last year.
On March 24, the rapper uploaded a picture of the Superbad star, 39, alongside Channing Tatum, from the 2012 action comedy’s movie poster to his Instagram with a lengthy Instagram post.
‘No one should take anger against one or two individuals and transform that into hatred towards millions of innocent people,’ he told his 18 million followers.
The Heartless hitmaker then wrote ‘no Christian can be labeled anti-Semite knowing Jesus is Jew.’
West concluded: ‘Thank you Jonah Hill I love you.’
His post received more than 2.1 million likes in less than 24 hours.

Back in 2018, Hill sang West’s praises after attending his album release party in Wyoming on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.
‘It was truly a beautiful experience,’ he said, before noting that his sister Beanie Feldstein did not speak to him for a week for supporting West, who had sparked controversy for wearing a Make America Great Again hat.
And though Jonah hasn’t publicly reacted to Kanye‘s post at this time, the film’s directors, Phil Lord and Chris Miller, both Tweeted in response.
Chris wrote, ‘Um… thanks for watching?’ as he re-shared the rapper’s original post.
Meanwhile Phil tweeted, ‘Laughter is the best medicine,’ in response to another person’s Tweet about the situation which read, ‘Is there anything @philiplord and @chrizmillr can’t do?’
Last year, the performer received substantial backlash for writing in a tweet: ‘I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE.
Deafcon — also known as defense readiness condition — is an alert used by the US Armed Forces to indicate how quickly the military can be deployed during deadly emergencies and attacks.
In October, he sat down with Piers Morgan and addressed the Jewish community, before doubling down on some of his antics.

‘I will say I’m sorry for the people that I hurt with the ‘death con’ [comments],’ Ye said on the show with the British talk show host.
West continued: ‘I feel like I caused hurt and confusion. And I’m sorry for the families of the people that had nothing to do with the trauma that I had been through, and that I used my platform where you say hurt people hurt people. I was hurt.’
The rapper and clothing designer said on Piers Morgan Uncensored that he was only referencing certain Jewish people who he believes have screwed him over.
Ye was pressed by Morgan on whether his anti-Semitic remarks were racist, and he says they were, although at one point, the rapper says ‘it’s not racism’ when asked about his comments.

‘When you insult the Jewish people and say you’re going ‘death con 3′ on the Jewish people, that is as racist as anything you say you’ve been through,’ Morgan said. ‘Racism is racism and you know that I think. Don’t you.’
At the time of his initial tweets, West claimed that he couldn’t be anti-Semitic because all Black people are also Jewish.
‘The funny thing is I actually can’t be Anti Semitic because black people are actually Jew also. You guys have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda,’ Kanye insisted.
The rapper’s Twitter account was later suspended.
In a statement Twitter confirmed that West was locked out of his account.
In the interview, Ye clarified that he wanted to apologize to the Jews who did nothing wrong. West’s comments were specifically geared towards Jewish Hollywood executives for their treatment of Black entertainers.
