Is Meeks' love as big as this diamond is? Is Nicki's? I sure hope so. "This looks like a 15-carat fancy yellow heart modified brilliant cut diamond mounted in platinum with a double halo of white pavé diamonds," Morgan Shara of MASbisjoux jewelry told E! News. She estimates it would probably cost about $500,000. Maybe Mill is short for millions.
Now it's going to sound all sour pants to say I don't like this big ol' diamond ring. But I don't. I'm not a fan of yellow diamonds, or novelty-shaped diamonds, or that halo trend, or jewelry that you can't wear every day on a New York City subway. I'm just putting that out there, in case this information is ever of use to anyone. But really, who cares about what I like?
This is La Minaj's ring, and it's all her. Look at that manicure! You're going to need the right bling to go with those wild nails -- and that outsized personality. So well done, Mill. Well done indeed. You got your woman the perfect ring. We wish the happy couple all the best and can't wait to see what kind of wedding they have. I suspect it'll be just as over-the-top as the jewelry.
What do you think of Nicki Minaj's engagement ring?
