Kanye West, now known as “Ye”, the 46-year-old rapper currently facing legal battles, has raised eyebrows by getting all his teeth removed and replaced with titanium dentures. The music producer proudly displayed his unique smile in an Instagram story, drawing comparisons to the iconic James Bond villain, Jaws, known for his metal teeth in "The Spy Who Loved Me" and "Moonraker."

West's lavish new dentures are rumoured to be 'more expensive than diamonds' and meticulously designed by the star himself. The surgical implant, a one-of-a-kind model exclusive to the musician, reportedly comes with a staggering price tag of $850,000 (Rs 7.07 crore).

The photos of the dentures and a comparison to the Bond villain Jaws featured on West’s Instagram stories where he has 18.7 million followers.
In 2010, the “Heartless” singer said he removed the entire bottom row of his teeth and got diamond and gold implants.

“I just thought that diamonds were cooler,” he had said at a talk show.

This bold move comes as Kanye West faces a series of setbacks, including a lawsuit for allegedly hitting an autograph seeker in 2022. The rapper, who was dropped by Adidas, Gap, and Balenciaga after a series of anti-Semitic rants in October 2022, is grappling with serious financial troubles. He allegedly owes $1 million in unpaid taxes, according to reports.

While the rapper was worth $2 billion a while ago, the string of controversies and legal troubles and brought his net worth down to $400 million now.
