KANYE West has added custom-designed titanium grills to his teeth.
In his Instagram Stories on Wednesday, the Donda rapper showed off his new dentures, which reportedly cost $850,000.
Kanye, 46, followed up the selfie revealing his brand new titanium smile with one featuring a screenshot of a Google search for the James Bond villain, Jaws.
The henchman used his metal chompers to attack and bite his enemies in both the 1977 action flick The Spy Who Loved Me and its 1979 follow-up, Moonraker.
The custom dentures, which are said to be “more expensive than diamonds,” were designed by Kanye and set the Yeezy founder back a whopping $850,000, according to The Daily Mail.
A source told the publication that the surgical implant is unique to Ye and was fitted by Dr. Thomas Connelly in Beverly Hills, California, alongside Naoki Hayashi, Master Dental Technician.
Connelly told the outlet that “[Kanye] was a pleasure to work with every step of the process.
“His vision for designing unique art transcends the dental progression.”
The doctor concluded, “The marriage of his vision with dental science has created a new look that is epic!”
It was initially reported that Kanye had removed his teeth, however, Dr. Connelly later clarified that the metals were simply fixed to his teeth.
Kanye’s shocking new look comes after TMZ reported that the musician is being sued by a man he allegedly assaulted outside Soho House in January 2022.
The man, who was an autograph dealer, claimed they got into a confrontation outside the members club.
He claimed in court documents that Kanye shouted, “I’m going to make a f**king example of you,” brought up his split from Kim Kardashian, and then hit him.
He claimed he asked Kanye to apologize, to which the rapper asked, “Apology for what?”
The fashion mogul then allegedly hit the fan several more times and “severely injured him.”
Sources claimed to TMZ that the man ended up in urgent care and that the Los Angeles Police Department is investigating.
Kanye has not publicly commented on the lawsuit.
KAN-YE NOT?
Last week, frustrated fans voiced their displeasure with the Can’t Tell Me Nothing rapper after his Vultures album release date was pushed back again.
The release date of Kanye and Ty Dolla $ign’s highly-anticipated collaborative album has been rescheduled several times.
Originally, Vultures was slated for release on October 13 before the date was moved to November 3.
But November 3 came and went and the album still had not been made available to the Yeezy founder’s eagerly awaiting fans.
The release date was pushed back to December 15 and then moved again to January 12.
Now, NME has reported that Vultures is set to be released next Friday, January 19.
There’s speculation that this move occurred to distance the collaborative effort from Kid Cudi’s INSANO album, released on January 12.
FOOL ME ONCE
The X, formerly Twitter, account DailyRapFacts shared the news and the upcoming Vultures release date on Thursday.
A tweet read, “Kanye West & Ty Dolla $ign ‘Vultures’ album is now set to drop on January 19th.”
One annoyed fan responded, “Lol, not falling for this again. More likely seeing Jesus Christ in my bowl of cereal during breakfast this morning.”
Another simply wrote, “Nope.”
“Yea right,” added a third.
A fourth person said, “It ain’t dropping.”
“No chance. February earliest,” predicted another.
A sixth user exclaimed, “WE ARE NEVER GETTING THIS ALBUM.”
One person reasoned, “Frankly speaking, Kanye’s albums have never an exact release date.
“They’re always rescheduled but on the other hand, what I love about it — he always always takes his time if it means scrapping the whole album just to make sure his fans are happy with it.”
WALK OF SHAME
Kanye was called out for seemingly humiliating his wife Bianca Censori after fans spotted what they considered to be a gross detail in an unedited video.
The controversial rapper and his wife were shown maneuvering through a crowd of onlookers at a Las Vegas casino.
The fashion designer donned a winter-appropriate, long-sleeved black top with gray pants for the Sin City outing.
Bianca appeared to be dressed for the beach as she showed off her ample chest while sporting a barely-there black bikini.
The model paired the micro bikini top with a coverup and went completely barefoot as she and her husband trekked around the casino.
Video screengrabs were posted to a Reddit board titled, “Bianca and Ye in Vegas… girl lost her mind and her shoes.”
In the comment thread, one person wrote, “Gross. Imagine walking barefoot on [the] carpet in a casino.”
“I don’t care how rich you are but you should never walk around Vegas barefoot! I’m just imagining her stepping on tiny pieces of glass,” said a second.
A third commented, “It’s so gross,” before adding, “They look ratchet.”
They also speculated that the casino “made Bianca wear the shorts against Kanye’s worst wishes.”
Another user questioned, “Is this top supposed to be sexy? I feel like this looks goofy.”
Someone else agreed, writing: “Right?! She’s got an amazing body, beautiful face, but somehow manages to look goofy to put it kindly.”
“Kanye loves to humiliate his muses,” suggested another commenter.
