Lil Uzi Vert Says Fans Ripped $24 Million Diamond Off His Forehead

Lil Uzi Vert almost lost his pink diamond.

The Philly rapper says he was stage diving when fans snatched the $24 million rock right off his forehead during his performance at Rolling Loud Miami in July. Thankfully, he didn’t suffer any serious facial injuries.

“I jumped in the crowd and they kinda ripped it out,” Uzi told TMZ.

Uzi, who has a barbell piercing in place of the pink gem, is grateful to still have his precious stone. “I still have the diamond, so I feel good,” he added.

Back in February, Uzi embedded the flashy rock in the middle of his forehead. He saved up for years for the pink gemstone, which cost a reported $24 million, and wanted it placed on his forehead because he was afraid he would lose it.
