Madonna Was Blingin’ At The Vanity Fair Post-Oscars Bash

Even though the rest of the country is in a recession, Madonna brought out the bling for the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party.

They don’t call her the “Material Girl” for nothing, you know. She earned the nickname last night as she literally piled on the diamonds for the post-Oscar festivities.

She was seen wearing millions of dollars worth of Neil Lane diamonds to the Vanity Fair post-Oscar bash.

Here’s a run-down of the jewelry she was sporting, along with those big guns:

• A black and white diamond chain with 500 carats of the shiny stones
• A diamond bangle with 25 carats of diamonds and platinum
• An onyx and diamond bracelet with 50 carats of diamonds
• A pair of diamond pear shape earrings of 20 carats each
• A square diamond and onyx ring

And if that wasn’t enough, she piled on even more diamond jewelry for her private party. She was said to have put on a cross and chain with 100 carats of diamonds, along with bracelets with 50 carats of diamonds, long diamond earrings worth $1 million and a gigantic diamond and platinum ring.

It’s all borrowed, of course, but it was a bit of overkill.
