The BIG game in New Orleans a few weeks ago, the Super Bowl, may have been about football, with the twice champions Kansas City Chiefs against the underdog Philadelphia Eagles (Go Eagles!), but the half-time show featuring superstar rapper Kendrick Lamar, was a runway of beautiful jewels!
“The Super Bowl is always packed with excitement,” writes Lauralee in her WhoWoreWhatJewels.com online Magazine, “but this year, the jewelry was making some major statements! Chains, rings, brooches — all dripping with diamonds and full of hidden meanings. From celebrities in the stands to performers on stage, we’re breaking down the standout jewels they wore.”
So let’s take a peek and then we can get you to the main event on WWWJ!
The rapper’s Super Bowl halftime look was bold, to say the least.
His hat was decked out with two eye-catching Rahaminov Diamonds pins
—one, on the frontside (not seen here), a Half Moon Sunset Diamond,
and—two, the other, on the backside (seen here), a Marquise Cut Angel Wing,
—rumored to be worth a staggering $68,000.
Was this a sly dig at Drake? Many are connecting it to the “a minor” lyric from his Grammy-winning diss track “Not Like Us.”
But some are saying it’s a nod to Kendrick’s production company logo, pgLang.
And let’s not overlook the diamond eye ring with symbolic tears—also from Eliantte. Is it a reminder to open our eyes to the world’s injustice and show compassion? Lamar’s performance was more than just music; it was an unfiltered statement on mass incarceration, reparations, and a revolution challenging the so-called American “dream.”
Priced at a staggering $740,000, the timepiece dazzled with 224 baguette-cut yellow sapphires!
