Scarlett Johansson & Colin Jost

SNL writer Colin may be a funny guy, but he picked out a serious ring for his movie star fiancée, which she debuted at Comic-Con. The ring is reportedly this one by Taffin de Givenchy, which features an 11-carat pear-shaped brown diamond on a curved band.

CARDI B & OFFSET

It was only fitting that the Migos rapper give his fiancée a “raindrop”-shaped diamond – an 8-carat one, to be exact, set in a halo of pink diamonds by Pristine Jewelers.

OLIVIA HAMILTON & DAMIEN CHAZELLE

It’s a match made in La La Land: the movie’s director proposed to his longtime actress love with a Monique Péan wraparoung ring set with two different-sized stones.

EMMA SLATER & SASHA FARBER

Dancing With the Stars’ Emma might have been shocked when her fellow pro proposed onstage, but the ring itself wasn’t a surprise — she’d sent her sister strict instructions to share regarding the “wine color,” halo-set pink sapphire she’s now sporting.

FREDDIE STROMA & JOHANNA BRADDY

The UnREAL costars made it very real when he proposed with this giant oval sapphire set in a rectangular halo with two more diamonds on either side.

MARY-KATE OLSEN & OLIVIER SARKOZY

Leave it to a style star like Mary-Kate to pair an over-the-top vintage Cartier diamond-and-sapphire engagement ring with a simple gold wedding band for a combo that’s effortlessly chic.

HILARY SWANK & RUBEN TORRES

It was “love all” when the actress received this gigantic emerald ring with a split shank and halo setting from her former tennis player beau, Ruben Torres. The Colombian emerald represents Torres’ home country, while the Art Deco-inspired setting speaks to Swank’s tastes, a source says of the piece, designed for the couple by Tres Almas‘ Andrea Jaramillo. (Sadly, they called it off a few months later.)

KYLIE MINOGUE & JOSHUA SASSE

Apparently, the singer’s actor beau couldn’t get her out of his head – because he proposed with a blingy emerald-cut diamond surrounded by two more halos of smaller diamonds. (The two split a year after their engagement.)

LUANN DE LESSEPS & TOM D’AGOSTINO, JR.

The Countess’s CEO beau couldn’t want to surprise her in Vail with this 8-carat canary yellow diamond ring set on either side with more diamonds. (The two tied the knot, then called it off.)

SOLANGE KNOWLES & ALAN FERGUSON

Naturally, the star who wore two caped jumpsuits on her wedding day wasn’t going to have a plain old wedding band. And her open-design gold band with two bezel-set stones opposite one another is unconventionally gorgeous, just like Solange’s style.

REBECCA ROBERTSON & JOHN REED LOFLIN

The Duck Dynasty star’s peek at her journal (proposal story and all) also happened to showcase her romantic opalescent oval-cut ring.

EVA LONGORIA & JOSE ANTONIO BASTON

The bride-to-be looked ecstatic to show off her ruby-and-diamond sparkler from her TV exec boyfriend on The Today Show – even more so because she chose a pair of ruby-and-diamond earrings to match!

SPIDER SENSE

“I wanted something different,” Bridget Marquardt told People about her one-of-a-kind pavé diamond spider engagement ring, given to her by horror-film director Nick Carpenter. “The traditional rings were just really, really traditional and I just wanted something different, unique and special. We saw this and I was like, I love that!”

BAND OF GOLD

Cameron Diaz married Benji Madden on a Monday after only a few weeks of engagement – so it stands to reason that her engagement ring (a thick gold band inlaid with sparkling stones) isn’t terribly traditional, either.

BLACK AND TRUE BLUE

Jennie Garth is now sporting a darkly sparkly number on her left ring finger: A glam black diamond encircled by white diamonds on a gold band, courtesy of fiancé David Abrams. (He filed for divorce in 2018.)

CENTER OF ATTENTION

Jenny McCarthy’s huge yellow sapphire engagement ring from Donnie Wahlberg may seem hard to misplace, but somehow, the star has managed. “It’s a little hard to get romantic with diamonds on your hand!” she said. “I removed it and put it on the room service table, and they came and turned down the room and the ring was gone.” (She found it, so you can rest easy.)

LADY GAGA

Amazingly, the heart-shaped diamond on her Lorraine Schwartz engagement ring from her actor love isn’t the most interesting part of Gaga’s engagement ring. The diamond-studded band features a sweet message: T (HEARTS) S (her given name is Stefani). But we won’t have wedding jewelry to look at: They called off their engagement.

ALEXIS BLEDEL & VINCENT KARTHEISER

For the couple that met on the set of Mad Men, a gorgeous and unique sparkler worthy of that show’s killer costuming was the only thing that would do. And the octagonal stone set on a vintage-inspired band was certainly that.

VINTAGE APPEAL

In a town where everyone wants the newest, biggest and sparkliest, there’s something romantic and sweet about choosing a ring with a ton of history – like Maggie Grace’s antique setting from 1810, a gift from now-ex-fiancé Matthew Cooke.
