The father of four had posted aseries of screenshots of Google search analytics, which showed Bianca and the Grammys going neck and neck in terms of trend numbers.Ye then posted a story exclaiming, “WE BEAT THE GRAMMIES,” followed by another story with the following statement:
“FOR CLARITY FEBRUARY 4TH 2025 MY WIFE IS THE MOST GOOGLED PERSON ON THE PLANET CALLED EARTH.”
