Tina Knowles-Lawson Defended Beyonce Against Criticism Over Her Tiffany & Co. Campaign
That little $2 million donation to HBCUs to offset the optics of Beyoncé and Jay-Z embracing the spoils of rampant capitalism in their recent Tiffany and Co. campaign was silly to begin with. And as we know, capitalism and colonialism go hand in hand. So it’s sillier still when you combine the fact that not only did The Carter’s wave a never-before-seen-by-poors Jean-Michel Basquiat painting in people’s faces, Beyoncé was wearing the crown jewel of one of the most unscrupulous industries on earth around her neck. The famed Tiffany Yellow Diamond. Now, because Beyoncé is but a defenseless lamb, her mom Tina Knowles-Lawson has come to her defense by pointing her finger at every broke bitch with a zero-carat diamond chip to say, “How dare you?”
Open Post: Hosted By Demi Lovato’s Expensive Ass Engagement Ring
Earlier this week, Demi Lovato got engaged to actor/singer/pretty boy LA-type Max Ehrich after just five months of dating (but keep in mind it was quarantine months, which, when converted into regular time, is roughly two years). Max presented Demi with a ginormous diamond engagement ring that gives those peasants JLo and A-Rod a run for their money.
Now TMZ is reporting that the ring is worth anywhere from $2.5 to $5 million, all because it’s a “special cut” from super fancy celebrity jeweler Peter Marco. Ooo, ahhhh, a Marco original! TMZ’s sources say the rock weighs somewhere between 10-20 carats, and is “an emerald cut that was handset in platinum, and flanked on all sides by smaller (only relatively) trapezoid-shaped diamonds designs.” What’s a trapezoid again? Is it like a rhombus? Fuck my inferior sixth-grade geometry education.
Kim Kardashian Is Back To Wearing Diamonds On Instagram But They’re Not Hers
We haven’t seen Kim Kardashian West dripping in diamonds for a while now. After the Great Parisian Jewelry Heist of 2016, Kim vowed to stop telegraphing her appalling taste in jewelry on Instagram. But like a moth to a flame, or a fruit fly to a rotten pear (shaped diamond), Kim just had to find some excuse to remind everybody she’s very, very rich. Kim’s revenue stream #74, KKW Fragrance Diamonds Collection, gives her the perfect opportunity to flex. According to Entertainment Tonight, Kim caused some confusion when in an Instagram post advertising her smell, one of the 90lbs of rocks she was wearing appeared to be the enormous $4 million 20-carat emerald-cut engagement ring that was stolen in Paris. You know, the second engagement ring Kanye West gifted her, which I’ll call Fat Man to avoid confusion (the 15-carat starter ring, AKA Little Boy, wasn’t stolen). Well, everybody can relax, Kim hasn’t been hiding Fat Man in her labial folds this whole time. All the jewels for the shoot were borrowed.
