The singer's most recent video, which viewers are assuming is a prank, has fans and celebrities alike roasting him online.
"Hey, have y'all seen this? I've always wanted to try it. Life hack," Derulo says in the clip, as he proceeds to eat corn on the cob off of a moving power drill (a trend that seems to have been around for the last five years).
After several seconds of holding the rotating corn up to his mouth, he yelps and lowers the drill revealing what appears to be chipped front teeth.
In just one day, the video has been viewed almost 18 million times and racked up nearly 32,000 comments from fans roasting the singer.
"Pleathe tell me your teeth are ok jathon," one commenter quipped.
"Now u gonna be riding tholo," another joked, referencing Derulo's 2010 hit song "Ridin' Solo."
Naturally, Chrissy Teigen weighed in on the video, reposting it to her Instagram with the caption "jathon deruro."
In just ten hours, the post received nearly 6 million likes and thousands of comments from fans and celebrities alike.
"Oh damn we got a situation," "Jersey Shore" star Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino commented on the video.
"Am I the only one who can't figure out how he did this?" Katie Couric wrote.
"This is upsetting," "Modern Family" star Jesse Tyler Ferguson added.
Teigen couldn't help but notice that Derulo seemed to be getting more attention from her followers than she typically does.
"damn my video of jason derulo got more views than my own videos lol," she wrote.
While his teeth certainly looked mangled, Derulo's fans seemed to be assuming that the video was another one of his pranks.
Derulo has a history of pranks where he's claimed to have lost teeth.
In a video from May 5, the singer posted a TikTok in which he pretended to knock out a tooth after jumping in the pool.
This time, Derulo is keeping fans guessing. He uploaded a second video in which he appears to be missing teeth as well.
"Just use some Ramen," one commenter joked, referencing the trend of ramen repair videos on the app.
In Derulo's most recent TikToks, his front teeth appear once again.
In the clip, he dances to "Crystal Dolphin (Switch up)" and flashes a toothy grin at the camera.
"It seems you found your teeth back," one commenter noted.
Jason Derulo's team did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
