Mariah Carey Celebrates "Glitter" Anniversary with $1.5M Diamond Necklace

Mariah Carey is celebrating the 25th anniversary of her 2001 film "Glitter" with new merchandise and a significant display of jewelry. The Grammy winner posted images on Instagram showcasing the new "Glitter"-themed items, including a "Loverboy" tank top, while adorned with a striking diamond necklace.

The necklace, designed by Leviev, features 44.71 carats of pear-shaped natural diamonds set in 18-karat white gold. The central pendant alone weighs 14 carats. Leviev provided Page Six Style with the exclusive detail that the piece is valued at $1,550,000.

Carey paired the extravagant necklace with her frequently worn Van Cleef & Arpels butterfly ring, large diamond drop earrings, and a bright pink lip. She has previously spoken about her attachment to the butterfly ring, noting in a 2020 podcast interview that she rarely takes it off, even during pregnancy.

The jewelry featured by Carey follows a trend of significant diamond pieces worn by celebrities at recent high-profile events. Madonna was seen at the MTV VMAs wearing a $2.8 million Leviev necklace, and Taylor Swift received an award wearing a custom Leviev ring valued at over 10 carats.
