Kanye West's former chief of staff says dentist exploited rapper and made him hooked on laughing gas – The Mercury News

Milo Yiannopoulos, Kanye West’s former chief of staff, claims that star dentist Thomas Connelly supplied the rapper with laughing gas for recreational use, which led to addiction.

Yiannopoulos, who worked with West from 2022 to early 2024, claims in an affidavit to the California Dental Association that Connelly delivered the laughing gas for moneyand earned as much as $50,000 a month, TMZ reported.

The former Yeezy worker, who first rose to prominence as a far-right political commentator and outspoken advocate of gay conversion therapy, also said he saw Ye self-gassing and exhibiting erratic behavior.

He filed an affidavit with the California Dental Board attempting to revoke Connelly's license, calling him a “dangerous sex offender.”

Yiannopoulos further claimed that Connelly had deliberately attacked African-American celebritiesand mentioned suspicions that rapper Lil Yachty had fake diamonds implanted in his mouth. He detailed the allegations in a thread on X on Wednesday.

When the previous editor of Breitbart News West confronted the situation, he said it led to the tip of their business partnership.

Connelly has since responded to the allegations within the affidavit, calling the claims “factually incorrect and intentionally misleading.”

In a press release to TMZ, his representative assured that the dentist adheres to all ethical and legal standards and can proceed to offer treatment despite the allegedly unfounded attacks on his character.
