Hollywood Sparkling Stars
One of the world’s most popular favorite pastimes is keeping an eye on the latest trends in
Hollywood. From lifestyles, homes, looks and clothes it’s the famous celebrities who are sure
to wow and intrigue us.
One area where they never disappoint is when it comes down to the serious business of love
and marriage – and most importantly, their engagement rings! Let’s face it! With glitz, glamor
and money to spend we get to see some of the biggest, most dazzling and creative rings ever.
So come on and take a look with us at some of our favorites.
The Cost
How much would you spend on a ring for the love of your life? In Hollywood the rules of “a
couple thousand” don’t seem to apply! Hilary Duff’s 14-carat diamond engagement ring cost
hubby Mike Comrie $1 million. Anna Kournikova’s “mystery ring” from Enrique Inglesias is
said to have cost over $2 million! Mariah Carey wears a unique 17-carat emerald cut diamond
worth $2.5 million. And over $4 million was spent on Paris Hilton’s stunning emerald cut
engagement ring – a 24 carat diamond!
Shapes, Colors and Sizes
Diamonds are not only valued for their splendid sparkle and radiance. They are also a unique
expression of beauty with their gorgeous different shapes – each one with its own unique
blend of cut, style and attitude! And while diamonds largely come in shades of transparent –
white, they rarely appear in wonderful color variations, known as fancy colored diamonds.
The Rich and Famous love to show their individuality and style by choosing some of the most
unique choices of diamond rings out there! So check out some of the star’s best diamond
