Kesha tooth jewelry collection
Entities: X (formerly Twitter) · Matt Rogers · Bowen Yang · Kesha
Overview
Pop singer Kesha has continued her long‑running hobby of gathering human teeth from fans to make jewelry. In mid‑July she explained on the Las Culturistas podcast that she keeps the teeth in jars at home and creates pieces such as necklaces, earrings, belts and a crown, noting the practice “freaks out straight men.” She traced the project back to 2011, when she first solicited teeth via Twitter.
By the end of July she revived the effort, posting a PO Box address on X and explicitly inviting followers to mail incisors, canines and molars for use in new jewelry items. The renewed call sparked mixed online reactions, but Kesha emphasized that the collection is genuine and serves as personalized reminders of loved ones.
Overall, the story shows a sustained, publicized campaign to expand her fan‑tooth jewelry line, moving from a podcast discussion of the existing collection to a broader, contact‑driven solicitation.
