Lil Uzi Vert’s pink diamond forehead implant made waves earlier this year, as the rapper noted he was getting the $24 million rock permanently installed. The rapper reportedly got a diamond for a ring but opted on the forehead implant to avoid losing it. Now, it appears that fans tried to rip Uzi’s diamond out of his forehead.
The rapper noted that while at the Miami stretch of the Rolling Loud Festival, he staged dived which led to fans almost getting a hold of his pink diamond. Uzi said while crowd surfing, fans ripped the stone right out of his forehead. Despite the incident, the rapper didn’t suffer any serious damage to his face, as he had a barbell piercing in place of the diamond. The rapper also revealed he still has the diamond. According to reports, Uzi had the diamond taken out this summer, but got the expensive stone re-implanted for Rolling Loud.

Earlier this year, Lil Uzi Vert teased that he was getting a pink diamond implanted in his forehead. The rapper explained the reasoning behind his forehead diamond, which reportedly cost $24 million. He noted that he initially picked the diamond for a ring but was afraid he would lose it. Because of that, he chose to have the stone placed on his forehead to ensure he doesn’t misplace it. Since then, the rapper has taken the stone out of his forehead, but it seems the stone has returned along with a new tongue tattoo that he recently revealed.
The rapper posted a video of himself to social media along with the caption “rager” and then stuck his tongue out, revealing the new tattoo. Along with that, Uzi can be seen with the pink diamond on his forehead, which seems to be in solidarity with the new project he is working on, called the ‘Pink Tape.’ Take a look above.
