Magaluf tourists stunned as they spot controversial A-list rapper browsing crisps in souvenir shop
Lottie Hulme, Senior Showbiz Reporter Published: Invalid Date, MAGALUF tourists were stunned as they spotted a controversial A-list rapper browsing crisps in a souvenir shop. It was none other than Kanye West, who was spotted with wife Bianca Censori browsing the crisp aisle. 4 4 The US rapper was in all black, and had a wander around the shop, that also sells tourist gifts. Barmaid Carla Ingham had heard the rapper, 48, was out shopping with his 30-year-old wife from a workmate. She ended up filming the US star and his wife, who was wearing a black bodysuit and sliders. Carla said: 'My workmate Lucas first spotted him heading into the supermarket next door. 'So I started filming myself walking into the shop. 'I called out.' It's been reported that Kanye and Bianca are currently staying on the Spanish Island for six weeks. Bianca and Kanye, who were believed to have split after the Grammys stunt, seem to be going strong. The pair have been spotted all over Spain, with Kanye allegedly receiving treatment for his mental health in Mallorca after his vile antisemitic and hateful outbursts. Bianca Censori sticks her tongue in Kanye West's mouth during rare PDA moment in romantic sunset video--- The couple were last seen hand in hand at a McDonald's in Barcelona. Their sighting comes after it was revealed that Bianca has branched out with her own career path away from husband Kanye. The brunette beauty worked for Kanye while she was an architect at Yeezy in 2020, but hasn't been in the profession for the last few years. Instead, Bianca has posed around the world in shocking barely-there outfits, such as her naked dress at the Grammys in February. Kanye, who now goes by Ye, has been criticized for controlling his wife's every movement, but it looks like she's now going it alone. The U.S. Sun can reveal Bianca has set up her first U.S. company, Bianca Censori Inc. It was registered last month with the state of California. She is listed as CEO and secretary.

Shocking moment Magaluf doorman floors Brit tourist, 25, with flurry of punches after being bottled in horror bar attack
THIS is the shocking moment a Magaluf doorman floors a British tourist with a flurry of punches after being bottled in a horror attack. The bouncer was left with a nasty gash that needed at least 20 stitches - and the Brit has been convicted over the assault at Plaza on the bustling Punta Ballena strip. 5 5 5 CCTV footage shows the Lithuanian bouncer exploding at Max Barnes, then 19, who he has up against a wall after the drinker bottled him. He unloads a series of sharp jabs in the packed nightspot, acting in self-defence. The customer dodges as many as he can but some of the blows land home. They spill over into the middle of the bar, when the bouncer delivers one more clean whack that sends the customer sprawling onto the floor. He then brings his hand to his blood-covered face and neck to inspect the damage. The 34-year-old doorman was left with a gash wound needing 20 stitches, according to public prosecutors. Prosecutors had demanded a five-year prison sentence for Barnes, now 25, who was held on an international arrest warrant after being bailed and going awol. The Brit, a teen at the time of the July 2019, claimed after his arrest by Civil Guard officers that he himself had acted in self-defence following a previous assault. But this week he was handed an 18-month suspended prison sentence after admitting the unprovoked attack as part of a plea bargain deal. Barnes, who had already paid his victim nearly £35,000 in compensation, admitted his guilt in a trial where he spoke briefly via video conference. Shocking moment UFC thug Conor McGregor pummels club reveller with TWO brutal punches in packed Ibiza nightclub The trial judges said they took into account his confession and compensation payments in their decision to keep him out of jail - as long as he doesn't re-offend. The obtained CCTV footage did not show the moment Barnes used a broken bottle to disfigure the doorman. But it did show the run-up to the attack when the Lithuanian man, in a tight white T-shirt, could be heard arguing with the Brit after telling him to leave due to misbehaviour. The Brit was held in the UK on an international arrest warrant after initially paying £13,000 bail to get out of prison and flying back home. Officials in Majorca issued the arrest order after he failed to respond to court communications. 5 5 Public prosecutors said in their pre-trial indictment they had uncovered no evidence of the previous attack Barnes had alleged took place and claimed he was defending himself against. A female British soldier was involved in another horror glass attack in a Magaluf nightclub in November 2023. Bus driver's daughter Sydney Cole was arrested when her pal, Scots-born Lance Corporal Sarah Garrity, was left in intensive care after losing four pints of blood and needing 14 stitches to a neck wound. Cole was warned initially she could be jailed for three years after being charged with a crime of wounding by Spanish state prosecutors, despite her victim's refusal to press charges. However, she ultimately escaped prison and was let off with a £780 fine. Cole, now 25, initially insisted after her arrest that Sarah was hurt in an accident. She claimed to have thrown the the glass on the floor during the fight, and said shard flew up and hit Sarah in the neck. However, she later confessed to the assault as part of a plea bargain deal.

Moment British teenager is punched to the ground by bouncer after smashing a bottle in his face when he was asked to leave Magaluf nightclub
This is the moment a Magaluf doorman leaves a teenage British tourist on the ground with a flurry of punches after reacting to being bottled in a horror attack. CCTV footage showed the Lithuanian bouncer exploding and using his fists to defend himself in the packed nightspot before bringing his hand to his blood-covered face and neck. The 34-year-old was left with a gash wound needing 20 stitches according to public prosecutors, although local reports today put the number of stitches at 50. Prosecutors had demanded a five-year prison sentence for Max Barnes, now 25, who was held on an international arrest warrant after being bailed and going AWOL following the attack. The Brit, 19 at the time of the early-hours incident on July 31 2019, claimed after his arrest by Civil Guard officers that he had acted in self-defence by responding to a previous assault. But yesterday he was handed an 18-month suspended prison sentence after admitting the unprovoked attack at The Plaza bar at the end of Magaluf's bustling Punta Ballena strip as part of a plea bargain deal. Barnes, who had already paid his victim nearly £35,000 in compensation, admitted his guilt in a trial where he spoke briefly via video-conference. Trial judges said they were taking his confession and compensation payment into account in allowing him to remain a free man as long as he doesn't reoffend. The CCTV footage from the bar did not show the moment Barnes used a broken bottle to disfigure the doorman. But it did show the run-up to the attack when the Lithuanian man, who was wearing a white T-shirt, could be heard arguing with the Brit after telling him he had to leave because he was misbehaving. It also showed the doorman's reaction to being assaulted as he responded by putting Barnes on the floor in the packed bar with a series of well-aimed punches. The Brit was held in the UK on an international arrest warrant after paying £13,000 bail to get out of prison and flying back home. Officials in Majorca issued the arrest order after he failed to respond to court communications. Public prosecutors said in their pre-trial indictment they had uncovered no evidence of the previous attack Barnes had alleged took place and claimed he was defending himself against. In November 2023 a British soldier prosecuted over a glass attack on her holiday friend in a Magaluf nightclub escaped prison and was let off with a £780 fine. Bus driver's daughter Sydney Cole was arrested when her Scots-born Lance Corporal pal Sarah Garrity was left in intensive care after losing four pints of blood and needing 14 stitches to a neck wound. She was warned initially she could be jailed for three years after being charged with a crime of wounding by Spanish state prosecutors despite her victim's refusal to press charges. Cole, serving in the Adjutant General's Corps based at Fort George Barracks in Inverness when the horror incident happened on April 15 2019, avoided prison after confessing to hurting Sarah as part of a plea bargain deal. Irvine, Ayrshire-born Sarah, who was serving in the Royal Logistics Corps when she was critically injured, triggered the early release of Cole from prison days after her arrest and preventative remand in custody after telling police and court officials she did not want to press charges. Prosecutors decided to continue trying to build a case against the accused woman after witnesses told police the attacker threw a glass directly at Sarah's neck during a row at Magaluf's Banana's nightclub following an all-day drinking session. Cole, now 25, initially insisted after her arrest her holiday pal was hurt in an accident when she threw the glass on the floor during the fight with her and shards from it hit Sarah in the neck before striking her plea bargain deal.

Magaluf looks empty as Brits ‘shun hols hotspot because they are tired of being demonised' while resort cleans up image
MAGALUF is looking unusually bare as Brits shunned the popular holiday spot after feeling "tired of being demonised". Dozens of beach sunbeds lay empty as the usual UK party-animals were nowhere to be seen - opting to spend their time in Benidorm instead. 9 9 9 Figures published last week showed Benidorm's leading visitors were Brits and its average hotel occupancy rate had reached almost 85 per cent in May. Meanwhile, pictures of the Spanish resort showed deserted beaches and empty restaurants - a steep contrast to what was once described as a "lawless party" hub. Deck chairs that would previously have been filled with boozing Brits sat empty, whilst Magaluf's once crowd-stricken streets appeared decidedly desolate. The barren resort is a positive change for many locals, who despaired at the "touristification" of their town. They're welcoming instead a new wave of tourists hailing from different European countries, which they hope will clean up the resort's image. Nightclub boss, Migue Perez-Masra, told local press that Playa de Palma, near the Majorcan capital, has seen a sharp increase in German tourists. 9 9 9 He claimed young Brits are turning their backs on Magaluf after feeling 'demonized" by locals. The area is now seeing more and more French and Italian visitors too. Attempts to clean up the resort's image come as Magaluf was branded a lawless party resort after a shocking sex video emerged in June 2014 showing a British tourist performing sex acts on 24 men in a bar. The 18-year-old at the centre of the viral footage was reportedly duped into performing the sex acts for what she thought was a free break that turned out to be a cocktail named 'Holiday'. At the time, Spanish politician Jose Ramon Bauza, branded Punta Ballena - Magaluf's strip - as '500 metres of shame'. Anti-tourist mob attacks holidaymakers with water guns as they vow Spain faces 'long hot summer' of protest carnage The bar was ordered to close for a year whilst authorities cracked the whip on unruly behaviour. Fines of up to £50,000 were introduced for holidaymakers caught leaping off their hotel balconies, whilst limits were set on the amount of alcohol served at all-inclusive hotels. Further restrictions in Spanish party resorts were introduced last year. In parts of Majorca and Ibiza, tourists can be fined up to £1,300 for drinking on the streets and shops are now only allowed to sell alcohol at certain times. Britain's then-Ambassador to Spain Hugh Elliott urged holidaymakers in the Majorcan party resort to 'show responsibility' and remember they were "guests" in Spain. This Sunday anti-tourism protestors will stage another demonstration in the Majorcan capital Palma. The demo has been organised by activist organisation Menys Turisme, Mes Vida, with 60 groups already pledging to take part. Protestors from other cities including Barcelona and San Sebastian will also take to a streets as part of co-ordinated events. A Menys Turisme, Mes Vida spokesman said last week: 'We will demonstrate for the right to a decent life and to demand the brakes are put on the touristification of this island.' Anti-tourist sentiment is on the rise across the world - not just in Europe. In Indonesia, Bali has announced a raft of rules including a swearing ban - enforced by a police force dedicated to cracking down on troublemakers. The new guidelines advise that foreign tourists 'should observe and honour Balinese customs, traditions, and cultural practices, especially during ceremonies.' They note tourists should also 'dress appropriately when visiting temples, tourist attractions, or public spaces.' Bali has further imposed a tourist tax of 150,000 IDR (under £8). Thailand is similarly introducing a 300-baht (under £7) tourism tax, which will come into force as of May 1. In Ecuador's Galapagos Islands, tourists are restricted to marked trails and must visit protected areas with a certified guide to help preserve this natural treasure. Since August 2024, tourists at the Galapagos must pay an increased entry tax of $200 (£155). 9 9 9
