Kanye West's former chief of staff accuses rapper's dentist of getting him addicted to nitrous gas

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Kanye West may have been addicted to nitrous oxide once, his former chief of staff has revealed.

According to the ‘Vultures 2’ crooner’s chief of staff, the rapper had struggled to release music or clothing because of his addiction. 

What did Ye's former chief of staff claim in his post?

Milo Yiannopoulos claimed in a series of social media posts on Wednesday, August 7, that his dentist Thomas Connelly got him hooked on laughing gas.

“Connelly got Ye hooked on nitrous — laughing gas. It is my belief that Connelly sought to diminish Ye’s mental faculties so that Connelly and his business associates could extract millions of dollars from him,” he wrote on X.

The British native alleged that he “uncovered the fraud” and “intervened,” which didn’t go well with the Grammy winner, 47, and he ultimately had to part ways with the artist a few months ago.

“Ye, hooked on nitrous, blew up our relationship on purpose by proposing something he knew I’d have to resign over (because I had told him so): the resurrection of his longtime idle fantasy of making porn,” he wrote.

Yiannopoulos confirmed he filed a complaint against Connelly with the California Dental Board and mentioned that  he’s “a dangerous predator who targets African-American celebrities.”

However, Connelly denied Yiannopoulos' allegations and told TMZ that the tweets were “not only factually incorrect but also intentionally misleading.”

Connelly earlier installed West’s $850,000 titanium prosthodontics. “Ye was a pleasure to work with every step of the process. His vision for designing unique art transcends the dental progression,” he told Complex in January.

Internet share their thoughts on Kanye West's alleged addiction to nitrous oxide

Netizens praised Milo Yiannopoulos for taking action against dentist's alleged unethical practice. A few also questioned Bianca Censori for not doing her part.

One person commented on X about Yiannopoulos' claim, "🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔 whatever’s going on, i hope it’s handled by the appropriate parties…….quickly."

"❤️you did the right thing. Hope Ye gets better. Truly want the best for him and you may have just saved his life, if he wants it…he can have it. Good on you," a second user wrote.

"Why is Bianca just standing by? WTF I don’t know…I’m speechless, other than to say thank you for being courageous," a user questioned.

Another added, "Holy shit dude. Really hope he's not too far gone. Clearly you have the receipts, I hope they actually do something."

"You might want to scrub that residential address.. will get some weirdos paying you a visit," one expressed.
