Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, is apparently into heavy metal now as he shared a picture on Instagram of what appeared to be metallic dentures.
As per the Daily Mail reports, the titanium implants were worth a whopping $850,000, In a second picture, West compared his new mouthpiece to the character Jaws from the James Bond movies “The Spy Who Loved Me” and “Moonraker,” who had metal teeth.
West’s teeth were completely removed and replaced with custom titanium dentures by Beverly Hills-based dentist-to-the-stars Dr. Thomas Connelly, and cosmetic dental technician Naoki Hayashi.
Shortly after West shared his news with his 18.7 million followers, Dr. Connelly reposted West’s story to his own page. Dr. Connelly, however, denied the report West’s natural teeth were removed. “He did not have his teeth removed. He still has a full dentition,” he told Complex.
Moreover, Ye is preparing for the release of his new album, “Vultures,” on Febuart. 9. TMZ reports Ye also filmed a video in which he reportedly apologizes for past antisemitic comments. That video will reportedly be released simultaneously with his new album.
