Shane MacGowans' new teeth


Hell-raising former Pogues star Shane MacGowan has finally swapped his infamous gnashers for a set of pristine new teeth.

The singer, who was unmistakable for his gappy smile, jetted to Spain for some serious dental work and now looks almost unrecognisable in my new snap.

He says he had the emergency dentures to stop his face “falling apart” after 35 years on the thrash.

  4. Tony - a beer implant.

    Isti, he didn't want to push it so he got them a nice dark shade :-)

    Chazza, don't think he did it for looks, apparently his whole face was about to cave in.

  5. Look at his lips. They don't know how to behave, now that they've got new neighbours. From the 'before' pic, it occurs to me that he couldn't eat meat in the old days and he just used to rub it in his hair. Now that he's teefy, he looks a lot less slippery.

  6. Coop, his lips are like a fish out of water, looks like a horse reaching for a biscuit.

    I believe your theory about the hair, too, I really do...
