Interview with the dentist that bought John’s tooth on ‘Dead Famous DNA’ tonight at 9pm, Channel 4 :)

X-posted from Upcoming on a television or radio (possibly) near you…

 

There’s a show called Dead Famous DNA? a-hard-days-night-paul-4

There is a ton of crap on UK tv that would make you think twice if it was a joke or not.

^ The dentist who bought it seems like a right creep, he’d create 100s of copies of John just to have a ‘profitable one’. blue-meanie

I hope his plan fails and John’s DNA is either too damaged to do any work on it or better yet it’s not actually John’s tooth brian-epstein

Wouldn’t that be hilarious if he goes through this whole process and some random guy comes out instead of John because it wasn’t actually his tooth…

That’d be what he deserves! And he’d have to wait for it to get old enough to realize it doesn’t look like John!

I kind of hope it is John’s tooth, and this kid turns out 10 times more ornery than the original.

Would serve him right, John certainly wasn’t the ‘angel saint’ that a lot of the general public think he was but then again he was a human as so many people often forget!

Demon Lennon baby :P

Look what the dude wants to do with Lennon’s tooth.

Dentist who owns John Lennon’s tooth will use DNA test to find Beatle’s potential love children in bid to claim slice of his £400m estate

Dr Michael Zuk, 45, from Alberta, Canada, purchased the legendary songwriter’s decayed molar at auction in 2011 for around £20,000.

Lennon, who was shot and killed in New York in 1980, gave the tooth to his beloved housekeeper Dot Jarlett in the 1960s.

Speaking with The Sun Online, the dentist has sensationally revealed that he plans to stake a claim to the music icon’s vast estate using DNA from the body part.

He said: “I am looking for people who believe they are John Lennon ’s child and have a claim to his estate and hopefully I can legitimise their claim.

“John was a very popular guy who was having sex with lots of women and I doubt birth control was on his mind.

“I would ask anyone who is participating to sign a commission agreement which would mean if they were related they would pay my company a percentage of their inheritance.

“Like a finder’s fee.”

The father-of-two, who was born three months before the Beatles’ first single Love Me Do was released, likened his plan to a regular “paternity case.”

He confirmed he is looking for heirs, aged in their 50s, who were born at the height of Beatlemania when young women were throwing themselves at the Fab Four.

Dr Zuk says a woman, who lives in the US, has already contacted him claiming to be the Lennon’s daughter.

But the ambitious dentist admits he is concerned that the claimant has only anecdotal evidence that she is related to the singer.

He added: “I want to hold off testing until I have a small group of hopefuls, or one with a very high supporting story.”

The medical professional says he would hire a legal team to work on a “contingency basis” once a lovechild is confirmed.

He said: “If we get a DNA match – lawyers deal with this kind of thing all the time, in divorce or paternity cases.

“Even though you’re dealing with a dead celebrity and millions of dollars – it’s still just a paternity case.”

Despite dying more than 30 years ago, the Imagine hitmaker’s estate is said to be worth more than £400 million.

Lennon Inc, controlled by his second wife Yoko Ono, had an annual income of £10million in 2010 – and business continues to boom.

Zuk believes that Yoko would have a “huge concern” in anyone trying to muscle in on her late husband ‘s empire.

Indeed, the dentist received a legal letter from the Japanese-born artist, 85, after he claimed he would be interested in trying to clone Lennon in 2011.

{snip}

The New York-born dentist admits that he saw the tooth, which still has some of Lennon’s tissue attached to it, as a “business opportunity” when he bought it at auction held in Stockport, UK.

He said: “I bought the tooth – not because it’s a stinky rotten tooth – I was thinking ‘how can I turn this into something which pays for itself.’”

Zuk also obtained Julian’s baby tooth, which is wrapped in blood-soaked gauze, as part of the bizarre auction purchase.

He believes that Lennon’s son’s tooth, and the accompanying blood, could be used to sure-up any questions about a potential love child’s relation to the former pop idol.

Another famous piece of Lennon DNA is his blood-soaked splattered glasses, which he was wearing on the night of his murder, which Yoko still owns and has used in campaigns against gun violence.

Family man Zuk adds: “If people think they have a claim to the estate – they can’t go to Yoko Ono. She isn’t going to swab John Lennon ’s bloody glasses.”

Zuk, which actually means ‘beatle” in Ukrainian, claims he was offered basketball player Shaquille O’Neal’s tooth but was still “shell-shocked” from the media attention surrounding the Lennon molar.

And he believes that the business of DNA paternity testing could “explode” in the near future.

I hope he loses a fortune as that is a pathetic act to do to anyone. Never mind Yoko and the rest of her family, but hawking out paternity tests to any individual who so may desire is a horrendous act that will no doubt appeal to the money-grabbing morons who try and get money out of such means. Too many idiots out there who are looking for a quick buck.

If anyone believes that John was their dad go thru the more standard ways and not some charlatan more interested in making a financial cut than anyone else who is involved.

How about giving some of it to an actual descendant, Julian; eh Yoko…?

John’s tooth is on tour. https://www.itv.com/news/westc…..s-bristol/

Part of the tooth has since been turned into a necklace by Beverly Hills jewellery designer Ari Soffer. Named the John Lennon DNA Tooth Necklace, it has been valued at £15,600 ($25,000).

People will have the opportunity to wear the tooth round their neck and have their photo taken with it.

The tooth necklace is on a UK tour in a bid to raise awareness of oral cancer. Over the next few weeks, it is visiting 16 dental practices to highlight National Mouth Cancer Month. It will be accompanied by free mouth screenings, promotions and fundraising events at every dental practice.

Lennon gave the tooth to his former housekeeper, Dot Jarlett, between 1964 and 1968 thinking she would dispose of it. Instead, she gave it to her daughter – a massive fan of the Beatles – who guessed it would be worth something one day. She sold the tooth recently in order to pay for a family member’s operation.

The tooth went under the hammer in Stockport and was bought for nearly double its listed reserve price – £19,000. The lucky collector was author, dentist and celebrity tooth collector Michael Zuk who also owns one of Elvis Presley’s crowns.

Sorry, Aussies, even the tooth isn’t touring down under.a-hard-days-night-george-10

what the bleeping bleep is this thread supposed to be? Is someone in the possession of a rotting tooth and asking people to pay them money to look at it? Tell me that’s not what is going on here, please.

Just learned another odd thing about that tooth.

The guy who bought it gave a piece of it to his sister who then put it into a clay sculpture of John (back in 2012).
