Previously, Lil Uzi Vert made waves after he went viral for getting a diamond implanted in his forehead that reportedly cost $24 million. The rapper noted that he paid for the natural diamond that he turned into a piercing of sorts, over the course of a few years. Now, it appears Uzi has taken the diamond out of his forehead for the time being.
The change was reportedly spotted this past weekend, as the rapper was seen with his girlfriend JT of City Girls, up close and personal in one of her Instagram posts. Along with that, the couple was spotted hanging with Future and his lady Dess Dior, where Uzi was diamond-less as well. Check out his new look above.

All the world s tanzanite is sourced from just 8 square miles (20 square kilometers) near Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania. By contrast, diamonds, which are considered rare, are found in more than 30 countries and on multiple continents.
Recognizable for its vibrant blue-violet color, tanzanite owes its place among today s favorite gemstones not only to its recent discovery, but also to a modern publicity campaign that catapulted the gem to fame.
