So, who else thinks that soon this nigger and his pink 24 million dollar ornament will soon be parted? The Stupidity of some people is reaching new heights.
Lil Uzi Vert debuted a new accessory on Wednesday with a video showing off a pink diamond attached to his forehead. Now, people are wondering how the rapper got the stone in place and if the seemingly major body modification is safe.
The 26-year-old rapper received a mixed response to his new look from people who called it a third eye or referred to Uzi as a Sims character after he shared the new accessory to Instagram. "Beauty is pain," he wrote in the caption.
While many assumed Uzi had the stone implanted into his forehead, according to Luis Garcia, the vice president of the Association of Professional Piercers, it's simply a piercing.
"It looks like he has what we would call a vertical bridge piercing, as in the bridge of the nose. That would be an actual piercing with a staple shape barbell that enters at one point, exits at another, and then the big diamond attaches to that bar on the front," Garcia tells Yahoo Life. "It’s a piercing, while obviously not super common in typical circles, it’s fairly common in piercing circles. ...Definitely not with a giant $24 million diamond on it. But it’s something that gets done."
With three decades of experience under his belt, Garcia says that the style of piercing is "not dangerous." However, the nearly 11-carat diamond that Uzi attached to it does pose some risk.
"With such a big piece, the weight of it, day to day life like washing your face, sleeping, rolling around, wearing a hoody, it’s just gonna be so easy to get that thing snagged. That’s really where the main concern is," Garcia explains. "The chances of it working out are slim."
It seems that Uzi has been waiting a long time to get the piercing done.
