Christian Nodal loses teeth while investing $800,000 in a diamond-encrusted smile

"I think it is the most stupid, idiotic thing I've done in my life," said Christian Nodal, reflecting on his decision to replace some of his teeth with embedded diamonds in 2020, a procedure that cost about $800,000.

"I had my real teeth removed to have diamonds put in as if they were teeth. I don't have teeth," Nodal disclosed during an appearance on "Noche de Luz," a show broadcast in the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, and online. For the 25-year-old artist, whose worth Forbes estimates at $120 million, the decision was regrettable both physically and financially.
