The actress decided to get creative with an otherwise disposable piece
Singer and Oscar award-winning actress Jennifer Hudson wanted to keep one of her son’s baby teeth after he recently lost it. She then had the idea of turning said tooth into a pendant after it had fallen out. The actress now has it attached to a gold heart and wears it with a gold chain. Hudson has a passion for creating unique jewelry that she considers her own.
She posted a picture of herself wearing the pendant on Instagram and wrote, “Yal like my tom ford glasses that I made into my prescription seeing glasses and my baby’s first tooth he lost hanging from a heart clinging to gold on my neck ! I like making things my own . I call it jenniferizing ! Thank u guys.”
The Color Purple star also showed off other impressive pieces, including two rings and various diamond and platinum studs.
The 34-year-old mother, who is married to WWE wrestler David Otunga since 2008, is not the first celebrity to make a fashion piece using teeth.
Back in 2012, Kesha asked fans to send her a tooth and subsequently received over 1,000 teeth to use, which gave her an idea. The artist created a “tooth bra,” tooth headdress and tooth earrings from the large collection received.
At the time, she told Bang Showbiz: “I asked for them to send me their teeth and I got, like, over 1000 human teeth. I made it into a bra top, and a headdress, and earrings, and necklaces. I’ve worn it out!”
