Kim K's engaged. 20.5 carat ring...

http://iphone.eonline.com/article?id=243888 So what do you think about the size of the ring? I couldn't find any pics, but that's insane!

Re: Kim K's engaged. 20.5 carat ring...

  • Honestly? I think that's insanely wasteful & tacky. I love a rock as much as the next girl, but there's just no way that looks good. Bigger is not always better.

  • I think it's about as real as Khloe & Lamar.

    She's marrying a dude that has the same name as her MOM.

    Weird.

  • Here's peek of it on the People cover. It appears to go up to her knuckle.

  • I'm seriously wondering how heavy it is. I would be so scared carrying something like that around.

  • I agree that's incredibly wasteful. I'd be afraid to even have it in my house, of course it probably cost more than my house.

  • Just because you can afford something doesn't mean you should buy it. It's gaudy and tacky.

  • SUCH haters, man. I'm on my phone and can't link, but please to Youtube Chamillionaire's "Good Morning." Thx. :)I would rock that ish. Who cares about seeing my left ring finger knuckle?
  • Whatever ho, I'm not hatin! I don't even like 5 carat rings...but everything about Kim K is over the top so really I'm not surprised.

    Honestly, could you really imagine going to the office and grocery shopping with a ring like that? It's ridiculous.

    Haha. I was totally expecting a response like this.

    I love my ring (center stone is 1.3,) but that's not to say that I wouldn't rock a 2 or 3 carat ring. ;) Anything beyond that I think I would start feeling self conscious.

    She's a celebrity though so I guess it's expected? Maybe I wouldn't feel so out of place if I was Kim K? It's still obnoxiously big though.

    Me too, but if I was as rich as Kim K I wouldnt be going to the office or the grocery store.

  • I agree that its gaudy and tacky.  I think celebs tend to go sooo over the top with things like that, its just not my style.  I can't imagine that it'd be comfortable on your finger and it just looks ridiculous.  I don't have an issue with a big diamond, but it should fit the person.

  • Closer image. Center stone is 16.5. Total weight is 20.5. Just so not my style. Doesn't look as big as I would have thought though...Cost?? $2 mil

  • If it was waaaayyy smaller (like 1 carat) it would be almost okay.

  • I'd rather have the 2 mil, thanks.

  • i think it's really pretty and suits her.  generally speaking i have no problems with people buying things with the money they've worked for.

    I'm actually really surprised that it doesn't look bigger in the pic than it does. Like I said, I guess if your Kim K it's expected and not as out of place. I still imagine that thing must be obnoxiously large on her finger in person though.

    Personally, I like Khloe's ring better and it's half the size.

    Lots of people have jobs in sports, modeling, tv...just because those jobs make more money than selling home made dog treats doesn't mean it's not work; I don't get the hate.

  • I have no problem with people speding their money on whatever the hell they want. And as long as they're not earning that money illegally, no reason to hate on that either.

    I don't think anyone had a problem with that though, did they? I completely agree...spend your money on whatever makes you happy. I don't care if you made it, inherited it or won it.

    Was anyone actually judging them for spending the money? Or were we just saying with thought it was a waste to spend that much on a ring we didn't think was that great?

    Yeah, I should have edited. I saw that after I posted. Personally I would take a $500k ring...another $500k in shoes & purses & the other mil back in the bank. lol

    This exactly. There are so many better things to do with 2 mil than buying a ring, especially when you have the free time to do it like they do. Or like I assume they do.

    ETA: I'm totally judging. You put it out there, I'm probably going to judge it.

    I think you still missed the point.
