The tweet was,
“ I’ve been paying for a natural pink diamond from Elliot for years now. This one Stone cost so much I’ve been paying for it since 2017. That was the first time I saw a real natural pink diamond. A lot of M’s in my face.”
After the announcement, many fans and the public compared him with Vision from Marvel Studios, and jokes were created about how his diamond would be ripped out, as same as how Thanos ripped the stone out of Vision’s head in Avengers: Infinity War.
And guess what, it turned out to be true like it was manifested. The rapper himself informed on the occasion of the 18th anniversary of JayZ’s 40/40 club – “ I had a show at Rolling Loud and I jumped into the crowd and they kind of ripped it out .” This happened in Miami last July. The pink gemstone was reported to be still safe with him, which was worth to be about $24 million. The US rapper now has a barbell piercing in place of the expensive pink diamond as lessons were learned.
Fans suggested him to place the diamond on a ring, to which he jokingly replied as “ If I lose the ring yeah U will make fun of me more than putting it on my forehead haha jokes on you.”
Once, the popular rapper shared that this particular pink gemstone was probably the most expensive thing he possessed, which is 10 almost 11 carats.
The reason behind the placement of the diamond was because of his fear of losing the extravagant pink gemstone, so the forehead was his choice for its safety. It is revealed that the diamond cost more than his car collection and home.
