Kanye West shows off his diamond-studed teeth

Kanye West has taken bling to a new level – he’s replaced his teeth with diamonds.

The rapper, who managed to to make a fool of himself by interrupting Taylor swift’s acceptance speech at the MTV video awards last year, did nothing to improve his standing when he showed off his diamond implants to US chatshow host Ellen DeGeneres, The Daily Mail reports.

He told her that a dentist had removed the bottom row of his teeth to fit the new sparklers. “I just thought that diamonds were cooler,” he said.

When DeGeneres appeared sceptical and asked if he hadn’t just fitted a diamond grill, he replied: “It’s really my real teeth. I replaced my bottom row of teeth.

“I guess there’s just certain things that rock stars are supposed to do.”
