Ice Spice just upgraded her mouth jewelry to a level that will have dentists and fans alike holding their breaths.
The 26-year-old Bronx rapper posted an Instagram Story on Tuesday showing off a massive diamond tongue piercing.
The timing is crazy, as this jarring drop comes just days after viral photos of Michael Rubin at a white party in the Hamptons allegedly showed Bing Spice exchanging spit with Tobey Maguire.
Her rep quickly shut down the message, clarifying that they were just talking but that the network had already made its decision.
She was also spotted attending Taylor Swift’s wedding to Travis Kelce on July 3 at Madison Square Garden, where she was one of about 1,000 guests celebrating the pop star’s big day.
Between party drama and new jewelry, Bing Spice is living her best life lately.
A tongue piercing that is too large is not only a crooked condition but a health risk that dentists have been warning about for years.
The bigger the jewelry, the more likely it is that your teeth will chip and crack, especially if you talk and eat all day.
Your tongue should move freely, and when you have a giant stud taking up space, it can interfere with swallowing and speaking.
In some people, swelling of the tongue can actually cause difficulty breathing, and continued contact with the teeth can cause enamel damage and gum recession.
However, Ice Spice has a history of leaving no stone unturned when it comes to creating statement jewelry.
She rocked an 80-carat diamond chain given to her by Dunkin’ Donuts during a partnership, and attended Super Bowl 58 as a guest of Taylor Swift wearing an opium chain commissioned by Playboi Carti.
The real question is whether Ice Spice is here to stay for the long term, or if this is just another “why not” moment that will fade away once the dental bills start rolling in.
Her rep did not comment on whether the diamond was real or just a “gram” statement.
