Will Smith’s bizarre outburst notwithstanding, few noteworthy things happened at the Oscars this year. Beyoncé, as usual, managed to create some red carpet buzz as she arrived “with a pair of tennis ball-colored dresses (one citron, one lime) and almost 400 carats of diamonds,” IDEX Online reports.
The 40-year-old superstar wore shoulder-length earrings by Lorraine Schwartz featuring seven rows of diamonds, weighing in at 150 carats. She also had a pair of 150-carat diamond bangles and two diamond rings – a 50-carat emerald-cut stone and a 20-carat cushion-cut gem.
According to the report, Beyoncé “switched costumes between her performance of Be Alive from the King Richard movie, and the awards ceremony on Sunday night, sporting a pair of huge circular diamond drop earrings, and a rhinestone garter around her left thigh.”
