Tiger King star John Finlay reveals his new set of teeth as he claims Netflix unfairly depicted him: ‘It’s all about the ratings… not the people they hurt’

Tiger King: Murder, Mayhem And Madness has become America’s newest obsession since it premiered last Friday on Netflix. 

One of the true crime documentary series’ most memorable faces is that of Joe Exotic’s ex-husband John Finlay.

This week the star took to social media to show off his new teeth, which he says are actually not that new.  

Say cheese: Tiger King star John Finlay recently revealed his new set of teeth, which has earned quite the reaction from the series’ quickly growing fanbase

Finlay got his new chompers in July of 2019, but he claimed that Netflix actively decided not to include them in the limited series.

He wrote on his Facebook group The Truth About John Finlay: ‘Yes I have my teeth fixed. 

‘The producers of the Netflix series had video and pictures of this, but chose not to show it. It’s all about the ratings for them, not the people they hurt.’

He started the page to correct what he feels Netflix got wrong with the seven-part series, which documented his and Joe Exotic’s polygamist marriage with Travis Maldonado.

Fellow subjects Carole Baskin and Joe Exotic have also taken issue with their depictions.

Finlay also clarified to TMZ that his teeth loss was not due to meth abuse but genetic issues.

Although he admitted that he’d done meth in the past, but claimed he had been clean for six years.

He currently lives with his fiancée Stormey in central Oklahoma, where he works as a welder.
