Ice Spice Unveils $50,000 Diamond Tongue Ring
On July 8, rapper Ice Spice (Isis Naija Gaston, 26) posted a video of a diamond-encrusted tongue ring that her jeweler, Benny The Jeweler, billed as “the biggest tongue ring in the world.” The piece, set in 18 k gold and valued at $50,000 (? US$72,000), was displayed in a close-up Instagram Reel where Ice Spice sticks out her tongue to showcase the bling.
Background: Prior Jewelry and Recent Rumors
Benny The Jeweler has previously outfitted Ice Spice with a diamond-encrusted Richie watch reported at $250,000 and a custom cartoon piece containing over 80 carats of diamonds. Earlier in April, the rapper posted a smaller tongue ring, and the week before the new reveal she faced speculation that she was using the weight-loss drug Ozempic and rumors that she had kissed actor Tobey Maguire at Michael Rubin’s White Party in the Hamptons.
Official Statements & Responses
Ice Spice described the new ring as “fan art” and said she is “obsessed” with the piece during a 2023 Capital Radio appearance. A representative for the rapper denied any romantic interaction with Maguire, clarifying that the two were merely sharing a vape and greeting each other on a balcony. Benny The Jeweler reiterated the ring’s uniqueness and price in the Instagram caption accompanying the video.
Criticism & Opposition
Some observers on social media questioned the authenticity of the ring, labeling it “fake,” while dental experts warned that a piece of that size could chip teeth. Critics also noted the extravagant cost amid broader conversations about celebrity spending.
