After being married to one of the most recognizable women on the planet for several years, Kanye West seems to be enjoying his union with Bianca Censori. The pair exchanged vows earlier this year. Aside from her presence in his life, little is known about the Australian-born beauty. She and the father of four obviously share the same passion for fashion and exploring the world. They’ve been photographed travelling through Japan and Italy this summer.
Amid their adventures, DailyMail has shared a report giving some insight into Censori’s family. They’ve specifically been described as “Australian mob royalty.” Her father, Elia “Leo” Censori was convicted of heroin possession in 1982 and received a five-year sentence. Her uncle, Eris, has been called “Melbourne’s Al Capone.” He was notably sentenced to death in Western Australia on murder charges. Ultimately, though, the fatal penalty was abolished in the area in 1984, granting him life imprisonment instead.

The family’s eldest brother, Edmondo, or “Eddie,” has faced convictions in Victoria for acts of violence, theft, and threats, DailyMail claims. Bianca’s father’s former wife, Faye Glascott previously told the press about his illegal gambling exploits, but his current partner, Alexandra, refused to speak with the media when approached earlier this week. It’s unclear exactly how close Censori is to her seemingly dangerous relatives, though she and Ye did have plans to travel down under and visit them earlier on in their marriage.
As further information about Bianca Censori’s life before fame comes to light, concerned social media users have been looking out for the architect. Based on the revealing outfits she’s been wearing out in public lately, some are convinced that Kanye West has convinced her to become someone other than her true self. Read the ongoing discourse at the link below, and check back later for more hip-hop/pop culture news updates.
As if there wasn’t enough Kanye Westgossip to go around already, now there are new claims from the past. Moreover, an Australian model recently called in to The Will & Woody Show on KIIS FM this week to claim that she slept with the Chicago artist some time ago. In fact, this was allegedly years before his relationship with Kim Kardashian, and the model (named Lily) said that it was while he toured with Nas Down Under. Furthermore, Lily maintained that she met Ye at a club as she was on a date with another man, but that she ended up leaving with the Yeezy mogul. Apparently, the two got “naked” before falling asleep in his hotel room, and the alleged meeting presumably took place in Melbourne.
To elaborate, Lily is now 37, and she stated that she must’ve been in her twenties at the time of this rumored fling. Regardless, despite Kanye West leaving her with his number and a proposition to tour with him around Australia, it seems like that was the only night they ever interacted according to Lily’s story. “He had the reputation of being a real a**hole, but he was actually lovely,” she remarked. “So sweet, sang Love Lockdown to me acapella. It was beautiful.”

However, that wasn’t all that she spilled the tea on, as she alleged that Kanye West boasts something “long, skinny, [and] like a ruler.” “Imagine a ruler you use at school. So long and skinny so not very nice. The girls will know what I’m talking about,” Lily claimed. “We all went to the Park Hyatt where they must’ve been staying. Everyone kind of just went off to their rooms and it was just Kanye and I. We were chilling, having a conversation on the bed and then he fell asleep on me. He was trying to get on with it, but I think I was in two minds still because I was living with the guy that I was on a date with because we were roommates and then we started dating.”
Of course, things have changed considerably for the 46-year-old since then. Most recently, he married Bianca Censori (ceremoniously, at least), and we all know how his other relationships turned out. While this is just gossip and speculation, it’s also a testament to how quickly people perk their ears up when they mention him. He will probably never respond, but people will still try to get closer to him anyway. With that in mind, stay posted on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Kanye West.
Moneyball and 21 Jump Street actor Jonah Hill is dealing with some personal life issues at the moment. Zoey 101 actress Alexa Nikolas recently accused Hill of forcibly kissing her when she was 16 and he was 24. Also, his ex-girlfriend Sarah Brady has divulged text messages from Jonah that showcase “emotionally abusive” behavior during their relationship. While these are newer allegations, it reveals a troubling past that may have started much, much earlier.
Now, Fifi Box, an Australian radio host, is recalling a “scary” incident when she live-interviewed Jonah Hill with her co-host back in 2012. Jules Lund, the co-host, asked the actor a provocative question involving the last time he had been in Australia. In 2012, Jonah was doing press with Channing Tatum for the first Jump Street movie. But apparently, according to Lund, Jonah had hooked up with his friend the time before and never called her back, which led to a “scary” blowup by Hill.

Jonah obviously thought it was a “bullsh*t” question. He went off the rails, saying, “That’s not true. That’s not [the] last time I was out here, first of all… You’re talking to two people who have no shame in hiding anything from their past, right? But we don’t know enough about you to dig up all the sh*t from your past to make fun of you about on live radio. If I knew anything about you and I cared enough, I’d dig up embarrassing sh*t from your past to rip on you about it — but I don’t care, and I don’t know, so I don’t have the luxury.”
Fifi Box relived the memory after the allegations from Alexa Nikolas, saying she felt she should share the terrifying encounter. She talked about the event on her current radio show, Fifi, Fev & Nick. Jonah Hill is piling up the accusations left and right, making for an interesting summer for the actor. How will he respond to all of the emotional and verbal abuse reports? Hill has yet to offer a statement for this latest trip down memory lane.
Born Amethyst Amelia Kelly, Iggy Azalea is a talented Australian rapper, singer, and songwriter who has made a name for herself in the global music scene. Starting her career in 2011 with her debut mixtape Ignorant Art, Iggy quickly gained attention with her catchy beats and unapologetic attitude, but what is her net worth in 2023?
By 2023, her net worth is estimated to be around $15 million, thanks to her successful music career, endorsements, and other ventures according to Wealthy Gorilla.

Iggy’s breakthrough came in 2014 when her single “Fancy” featuring Charli XCX topped the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, making her the fourth female rapper to achieve this feat. Her debut album,The New Classic, reached the top five on several charts and was certified platinum. Throughout her career, she has released numerous hits and collaborations with various artists, further boosting her net worth.

A significant portion of Iggy Azalea’s net worth comes from her various endorsements and business ventures. She has signed lucrative deals with popular brands like Levi’s and Monster Products. Additionally, she has her own shoe collection in collaboration with Steve Madden, and she became the face of the Australian underwear brand, Bonds, in 2015. These partnerships have played a crucial role in increasing her wealth over the years.

Iggy Azalea’s talents extend beyond music, as she has ventured into acting and television as well.

With an estimated net worth of $15 million in 2023, Iggy Azalea has come a long way from her humble beginnings in Australia. As she continues to release new music and expand her brand, her net worth is likely to grow even further. Given her determination and talent, there’s no doubt that Iggy Azalea will continue to be a force to be reckoned with in the entertainment industry.
Conclusion/TLDR
In conclusion, Iggy Azalea’s impressive net worth can be attributed to her successful music career, strategic partnerships, acting and television appearances, real estate investments, and philanthropy. As she continues to evolve as an artist and entrepreneur, her wealth is expected to grow, solidifying her position as one of the most influential female rappers in the industry.
Azealia Banks has added an unexpected new entry to her long list of beef: the entire country of Australia. The rapper took to Instagram to express her dissatisfaction with the handling of her single “New Bottega” in the land down under. According to her, a subpar remix of her master track was released in Australia instead of the original version she preferred. She goes on to discuss her record contract before criticizing the Australian music industry more broadly.
“I don’t think they realize how unimportant they are as far as music culture goes… they’re deluded with the idea that their whiteness makes Australia an A Market, when it’s truly a C-D market,” Banks said on her Instagram. “Brazil is a MUCH more important market for music than australia lmao. (this is mostly because Australia has an extreme dearth of internationally appetizing talent outside of Kylie Minogue, INXS & AC/DC, {tame impala is just cheesy to me, and wolfmother is excellent – but clearly an American rock tribute band}.”
Label Problems, Bigger Beef, And New Music
Azealia Banks announces she’s leaving Parlophone to release New Bottega independently
Australia isn’t the only feud Azealia Banks has had this year. She has also gone very public in her beef with former label, Parlophone. The rapper had barely been signed with the label for three months before leaving. In November 2022, she announced the signing via social media. At the end of January this year, she said she was leaving because the label was full of “fragile white liars.” She also called the label’s roster “corny losers.” Even if she had changed her mind about leaving, there was likely no going back after those comments. It’s another bridge burned for Banks.
Although the rapper is currently independent, that doesn’t mean that she isn’t going to release music. In a recent interview with Dazed Magazine, she spoke about the music she has been working on. Apparently, Banks has already recorded 75+ songs for two new albums. Additionally, she said that her opinion of her voice has changed. “My voice has definitely matured a lot, and I feel really sexy when I sing now,” she said in the interview. “When you’re younger, especially when you come from theatre like I do, you’re kind of listening to yourself as you sing to make sure that you sound pretty. But I don’t care about sounding pretty. Because I’ve realized that I’m f*cking gorgeous.” What do you think of Banks’ latest beef? Let us know in the comments!
In a series of Instagram Stories shared yesterday (May 7), Banks wrote about how her recent single “New Bottega” was handled in Australia, claiming a “piss poor remix of my master track” was released over there instead of the preferred version. She writes more about the song and her record contract before going after Australia and its music industry more generally.
“I don’t think they realize how unimportant they are as far as music culture goes because they’re deluded with the idea that their whiteness makes Australia an A Market, when it’s truly a C-D market,” Banks said. “Brazil is a MUCH more important market for music than australia lmao. (this is mostly because Australia has an an extreme dearth of internationally appetizing talent outside of Kylie minogue , INXS & AC/DC, {tame impala is just cheesy to me, and wolfmother is excellent – but clearly an American rock tribute band}.”
She continued, “Australia doesn’t really have many music acts that anyone truly cares about on a global scale because they’re in a vacuum of off-brand British culture,” noting she thinks they have “actually created one of the most culturally stale white nations on the planet.”
“Sidebar: I’m reading this article in the Guardian about the ever dwindling and insignificant Australian music industry and have SO MANY THOUGHTS AND COMMENTS, but the delusions of the Aussie music execs quoted in this article is f*ckkkng astonishing and making it clear to me how sheer jealousy, racism and desperation allowed @sweatitoutmusic to purposely sabotage a bonafide hit in lieu of their fragile fragile egos and DESPERATE attempts to try and steal my IP. The Australian music industry is so devoid of internationally appealing talent they literally harrased, threatened, menaced and corruptly stole my IP. Let’s take a deep dive.
the version of my song New Bottega, the Australians released as The final composition is actually a piss poor remix of my Master Track , and should not be titled ‘New Bottega’.
There’s no language stating that any ‘left over ideas’ do not belong to me. Because they essentially treated the fully mixed mastered single as a discard, when they had it in their possession the entire time, the song splits were not papered once done,
and they have nothing with my signature confirming ‘New Bottega’ as the song that qualifies the parameters of the initial contract.
They left it as ‘TBD’ which was stupid on their part. So they basically denatured my intellectual property, cherry picked what they wanted from it and fraudulently presented it to the world AS the song EYE wrote. And they released it, so that is the only version of the song they have claim to. My Sony atv deal explicitly states that I am not allowed to assign control of my publishing/vocals etc to any entity. Again I was very f*cking sick when I signed the deal and really just signed it so They would stop calling me at 2am and let me rest. The fact that they are steadfast on trying to have ownership over something that is going to make them no money without my involvement is asinine. They fact that they are so obsessed with owning my vocals but adamant about treating me poorly and adamant about not investing in such a massive song (the tik tok stats and best of year end lists literally proved that the product works, what’s the point in changing it?) is literal stupidity. Whatever remix they released is not ‘New Bottega.’ So they don’t have the right to title their remix track as such. ‘New Bottega’ is my intellectual property, and time has proven that these aussies have zero clue how to market this song, absolutely no knowledge of the big business that is American female rap, or how to engage with Azealia Banks and leverage the power of her already established international fanbase to their advantage… here I am LITERALLY telling them how to get my fans excited- and they re taking it an insult.
For the record. ‘New Bottega’ by Azealia Banks Is a hiphop record. It is not a dance record. Categorizing it as a dance record was their first wrong marketing move. Clearly -There is a cultural dissonance here. HipHop is the most profitable genre of music in the world right now. EDM is f*cking dead For people so thirsty to try and own the rights to my vocals , you’d THINK they had some huge money play to go along with all of the empty and baseless threats to sue me. (lmao, can’t sue me for not participating in promoting garbage.) if they were good crooks – they would have at least kept their racism under wraps long enough to have taken my photo and shot a video to have assets to promote their bullshit with) For all of the dsp c*cksucking @sweatitoutmusic did in effort to try and prove to me that their marketing strategy was better than mine – registering it as a dance song Was the most anti-algorithmic sh*t an algorithm dickrider could have done. F*cking stupidity.
Australia’s media /music /entertainment industry isn’t exactly heralded by the heads of government or anyone in the world as a coveted cultural export, I don’t think they realize how unimportant they are as far as music culture goes because they’re deluded with the idea that their whiteness makes Australia an A Market, when it’s truly a C-D market. Brazil is a MUCH more important market for music than australia lmao. (this is mostly because Australia has an an extreme dearth of internationally appetizing talent outside of Kylie minogue , INXS & AC/DC, {tame impala is just cheesy to me, and wolfmother is excellent – but clearly an American rock tribute band}
Australia doesn’t really have many music acts that anyone truly cares about on a global scale because they’re in a vacuum of off-brand British culture. Could be do to with it being geographically so out of the way and how aggressive, barbaric, oppressive and violent they have been in regards to the very existence of native black peoples that they’ve actually systematically stomped out their country’s own ability to develop its own music/arts culture – to instead look to England and the USA for ideas to regurgitate not realizing that the reason the Australian music industry and Australian culture is so trash is BECAUSE of their country’s historical post colonial obsession with I guess, trying to prove to England and the Monarchy that they -a legion of convicts/mentally insane social rejects – were in fact a proper white/Anglo-saxon society – using the massacre/ subjugation of black/indigenous peoples (manifest destiny bullshit) and theft of their land as a marker of national strength
But they have actually created one of the most culturally stale white nations on the planet.
The fact that these aussie music execs are COMPLETELY OVERLOOKING THE CORRELATION BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENTS PURPOSEFUL ETHNIC CLEANSING OF NATIVE PEOPLES AND THEIR INABILITY TO PRODUCE MUSIC ANYONE ANYWHERE CARES ABOUT IS F*CKING COMEDY .
Someone has GOT to tell the Australian music industry that Absolutely no one on earth takes it seriously. Like, they HAVE to understand how untalented/uncultured and unneeded they are to the greater global arts community, realize musical talent is just not in the gene pool, and redirect those funds to the aboriginal peoples of the continent and just pack their shit up and go back to Europe. LMAO. Y’all stomped all the blackness out of Australia – which is why your music exports suck and we don’t feel bad for you lmfaooooooo.”
Snoop Dogg just shocked an Australian crowd of 20,000 with a lewd concert including pole dancers on Thursday (March 2). As the scantily-clad performers danced to his music, he performed some of his classics like “Gin And Juice” and “What’s My Name?” Moreover, he also brought out an ape-mask-wearing performer carrying an oversized blunt prop to throw money onstage. Overall, it sounds like quite the display of debauchery and campiness that we’ve come to expect from the Cali legend. It might’ve been shocking for many, but the crowd overall loved his performance, screaming and singing along on his “I Wanna Thank Me” tour.
Furthermore, Snoop faced accusations of groping one of his backup dancers during his Monday night Perth show. However, it seems like that referred to people concerned with how he touched them while on stage, with no further wrongdoing reported. Still, a testimony from another dancer painted the rapper’s energy in a more positive light. “It’s just having fun and entertaining the crowd,” dancer Nicole remarked to a radio show. “He’s the coolest person, super laid back and he just wants to entertain the people like we all do.”
Snoop’s Pole Dancers Shock Crowd

Also, the 51-year-old hung out with Ed Sheeran and Russell Crowe backstage at his Melbourne show on Saturday (March 4). Of course, many pointed out some jars and rolled cigarettes among them, pointing to some chill celebration. Still, it was a bizarre sight as a hip-hop legend, one of the biggest artists right now, and an acclaimed actor kicked back. In addition, it seems like Snoop gifted both celebrities with a Death Row chain to commemorate the occasion.
Meanwhile, the Doggpound head honcho will make a return to TV alongside his longtime friend and collaborator Dr. Dre. Moreover, DJ Pooh confirmed a reboot of their film The Wash (which he directed) as a TV series. For those unaware, this was a star-studded 2001 film for hip-hop and could make for a fun, nostalgic revisiting. Given their chemistry and decades of experience working together, it should be a treat to see even if the end result isn’t revolutionary. Regardless, check him out with Sheeran and Crowe below and stick around on HNHH for the latest news from Snoop Dogg.
Harry Styles drank from one of his green Adidas sneakers at his recent concert in Australia, participating in a long-standing tradition known as a “shoey.” The moment was shared on social media by a concert attendee. “This is one of the most disgusting traditions I’ve ever witnessed,” Styles joked to the audience. After pouring a drink into the shoe and downing it, he remarked, “I feel like a different person. I feel ashamed of myself. It feels so personal. Such an intimate moment to be shared with so many people.” He also joked that he “will be discussing this with my therapist at length.”
Many artists have taken a drink from their shoes at concerts in Australia over the years. Both Machine Gun Kelly and Post Malone as well as many more have done so during their concerts. After Malone’s “Shoey,” fans expressed concern about the singer’s well-being as he also looked noticeably thinner on stage.

Styles’ Australian show comes after wrapping up a sold-out, 42-date tour in the United States that began in 2021. He was also recently named the British artist of the year at the 2023 BRIT Awards. In accepting the award, Styles thanked his former One Direction bandmates. “I want to thank my mum for signing me up for X Factor without telling me, so I literally wouldn’t be here without you. I want to thank Niall, Louis, Liam, and Zayn because I wouldn’t be here without you either. Thank you so much,” Styles said in his speech. He also recognized some of the female artists who he beat out for the honor. “I’m really really grateful for this and I’m very aware of my privilege up here tonight so this award is for Rina, Charli, Florence, Mabel, and Becky,” he said, referencing Rina Sawayama, Charli XCX, Florence Welch, Mabel, and Becky Hill.
Styles also took home Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album at the 2023 Grammy Awards, earlier this month, for his project, Harry’s House. The album debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 with 521,500 album-equivalent units back in May 2022.
The never-ending saga of Kanye West‘s life continues with a dropped lawsuit over an Australian burger joint. Ye filed the lawsuit against College Dropout Burgers owner Mark Elkhouri over the usage of his 2004 debut album’s name. According to WA Today, the rapper accused Elkhouri of his misleading and deceptive choices, as the restaurant owner had never contacted Ye about using “College Dropout.” But, after mysteriously going AWOL, Ye’s lawyers have had enough.
The initial 43-page court statement was filed back in October of 2022. The claim referred to Ye’s status as one of the top 100 artists of all time, insinuating that the usage of his name in any business automatically references the rapper. Accordingly, Elkhouri was to destroy any materials related to Ye’s personal branding. Needless to say, this included his Australian trademark application for College Dropout Burger. Elkhouri had reportedly complied by removing signature art pieces and logos related to Ye from his establishment. This included a mural of Ye, as well as the logo referencing the album covers bear. The case has been dropped, however, not because of Elkhouri’s cooperation, but because the 45-year-old rapper has gone AWOL.
Ye’s Lawyers Want Out

Ye has been known for stirring controversial views, and often goes against the status quo. Most recently, Ye has struck up disappointment with his comments praising Adolf Hitler, and self-identifying as a nazi. These recent remarks urged Education Minister Jason Clare to declare Ye’s ban from Australia. Despite 24 Grammy wins and placing as the United State’s fourth-highest certified artist by digital singles, Ye still finds himself on a slippery slope.
Just this month, Ye’s lawyers have officially cut ties with the rapper due to his unresponsive behavior. In a report released by AllHipHop, the legal team working with Ye on a copyright case was unable to contact the “Runaway” singer in order to denounce him. Accordingly, they took to newspaper ads to publicly announce their separation from Ye. The presiding judge questions how extensively the legal team tried to contact their client. However, this is certainly not the first time that Ye has found himself under fire with the law.
