Kanye West was spotted arriving in New Orleans with his wife Bianca Censori on Friday ahead of his concert.
The 49-year-old rapper and the 31-year-old Australian beauty flew into town and were escorted from West to Caesars Superdome for the show.
He looked solemn, wearing black sunglasses and an icy expression as he sat in the back of a black vehicle.
Censori, for her part, was dressed in a low-cut, black, sleeveless top and high heels, while her copper-colored hair flowed straight down her back.
It comes amid the arrest of his publicist Milo Yiannopoulos and subsequent deportation by ICE on Saturday.
According to TMZWest made no mention of the headlines during his show.

Censori was dressed in a low-cut, black, sleeveless top and high heels, while her copper-colored hair flowed down her back in a straight style.
Yiannopoulos was pictured in a photo released Friday by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) wearing a black T-shirt and looking sullen.
On Thursday, he was arrested at Louis Armstrong New Orleans International Airport in Louisiana and placed in a detention center after getting off a flight.
DHS said Yiannopoulos legally entered the U.S. in 2019 but “chose to overstay his welcome” and violated immigration laws.
The right-wing provocateur has now ended up back in Great Britain TMZ reported arriving Saturday morning PST/evening GMT.
He previously served as West’s chief of staff and as an editor at the right-wing publication Breitbart.
Yiannopoulos, who is an outspoken advocate of mass deportation, was issued a final removal order by an immigration judge on July 22 and failed to show up for his immigration hearing, according to DHS.
“Being in detention is a choice,” the department added, encouraging undocumented migrants to deport themselves for $3,000 and a free flight to their home country.
Laura Loomer took credit for Yiannopoulos’ arrest in a phone conversation with police New York Times.

“I’ve been saying for a long time that this should happen, and now it happened,” she told the publication, adding that Yiannopoulos “Loomered!”
Loomer and Yiannopoulos were once allies, but fell out. Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene wrote on X that Yiannopoulos worked on Loomer’s former political campaigns.
“Milo Yiannopoulos is in ICE custody after I exposed his illegal alien lifestyle. Marjorie Traitor Greene hired Milo to work as her ‘intern,’ where he produced her podcast, wrote her book, and lived in her home in Rome, Georgia before selling it,” Loomer claimed on X.
Greene denied that Yiannopoulos lived with her and called Loomer a “vile liar.”
Since his fame as a political commentator, Yiannopoulos has been an advocate of immigration restrictions and mass deportations.
He said in 2017 that he was in America on an O-1 nonimmigrant visa, which is granted to aliens with “extraordinary ability in the sciences, arts, education, business or athletics,” according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.
Yiannopoulos has a long-standing relationship with West and acted as director of political operations during his 2024 US presidential campaign.
