Jewelry Deal

SOLVED!

[Blind Gossip] This actor works but is by no means a superstar or a household name. So where did he come up with the millions of dollars needed to buy this female celebrity a significant piece of jewelry?

He didn’t.

He didn’t pay for that. [That one piece of jewelry] costs more than his entire net worth! [She] did everything. She picked out the exact piece she wanted and she paid for it, but not full price. She negotiated a deal with the jeweler where he gets publicity in return for giving her a big discount and pretending that her fiance picked it out and paid for it all without her knowing anything.

The jeweler gets publicity… she gets the exact jewelry she wanted… and her man comes out looking thoughtful and generous. Everybody’s happy! Not completely honest, but happy nonetheless!

[Optional] Who paid for the nicest piece of jewelry you own?

SOLVED!

Female Celebrity: Paris Hilton

When actor Chris Zylka presented Paris Hilton with a huge, $2M diamond ring upon their engagement, no one could figure out where he came up with the money for such a huge bauble.

He didn’t.

Paris Hilton arranged the entire ring deal with her friend, jeweler Michael Greene.

From E News:

Paris Hilton Reveals What Really Happened to Her $2 Million Engagement Ring

Diamonds are truly a girl’s best friend.

It seems like Paris Hilton grew rather attached to the $2.2 million dollar diamond ring from her engagement to Chris Zylka during the ten months she was engaged. So it makes sense that she wouldn’t want to part with the piece of jewelry, even after calling off their engagement.

Moreover, the star told SiriusXM’s Jenny McCarthy that she feels like she gave the jeweler, Michael Greene, who created the ring, “millions and millions of dollars of free publicity.” And the jeweler seems to agree since they are letting the millionaire keep the priceless piece of jewelry.

Paris joked, “I love how social media has basically become a new form of money, it’s pretty sick.”

Note the language: “And the jeweler seems to agree since they are letting the millionaire keep the priceless piece of jewelry.”

The JEWELER is letting her keep the diamond. That would only occur if there was a deal between the jeweler and Hilton (not involving Zylka) AND if the jeweler still owned all of or part of the ring!

So, there you have it. Confirmation that Hilton set up the ring deal and that she obtained the ring at a discounted price in exchange for the publicity. Zylka had absolutely nothing to do with it.

It also confirms that Paris Hilton is a big phony. She told everyone that her ex-fiance picked out the ring himself and paid for it himself. Why? Because it fed the fake narrative that a man was sooooo in love with her that he would gladly spend $2 million for an engagement ring for her.

Congratulations to Minnieme for being first with the correct response!

    Of course this is Paris Hilton & Cheis Zylka

    My mother gave me a ridiculously expensive diamond Rolex for my undergrad grad present. It has sat in a safety deposit box ever since. Not my style at all plus I would beat the crap out of it.

    Her engagement ring that she loved so much she was shaking as she put on, and reportedly which Chris designed for her after she showed him one of her mother’s rings that she admired. Yeah…..right.

    Paris and her new fiancé. The dude from The Leftovers.

    I thought her ring was hideous. Way too big and gaudy.

    Paris and her fiancé.

    My husband who bought my engagement ring. In second place was my watch but by then we were married so it was paid by both of us 🙂

    I figured he didn’t. It was way too big to be picked out by a man (no offense, only Paris would choose something that gawdy). Also, the way she snatched the ring and shoved it on her finger herself, you could tell it wasn’t a surprise.

    I was wondering how he was able to afford that ring. I’d never even heard of him until he started dating her.

    Paris Hilton & Chris Zylka

    The ring is ostentatious, tacky, gaudy. She acts and styles herself like nouveau riche.

  19. californiabound says

    Paris Hilton (her $2 million engagement ring) and Chris Zylka. I still can’t believe they’re engaged. I thought it was weird when he started dating Lucy Hale through Twitter so I can’t imagine how he met Paris.

  20. KatarinaJ says

    Paris Hilton’s fiancee. Can’t recall his name without googling but I loved him in THE LEFTOVERS.

  25. KatarinaJ says

    Chris Zylka. BTW, did google and it is hilarious. The Jeweler claims Chris picked it out, designed it, surprised her, AS IF. Come on, money aside, a woman like Paris OBVIOUSLY wants to design and choose her own ring. Someone THAT apt to getting her way.

  28. mamacita3 says

    This is practically solved.
    It’s Paris Hilton and Chris Zylka.
    My husband always pays for my jewelry which, in hindsight maybe he should have negotiated a deal where I could’ve blabbed to the world where he got it for a nice bill-down!

    My mum gave me a ring when I turn 16 made from an old ruby stone that was part of her earrings given to her by her parents.

  35. Sharper_Teeth says

    Nobody really thought that Chris Z-list Zylka could actually afford that, right?

    racist has-been pornstar paris hilton who used to be famous for a crappy sex tape

    her boyfriend of the moment who gave her a ring just as tacky as she is for her giant man hands

    looks like she just copied Cardi B’s ring, although Cardi’s actually WAS bought by her fiancé

  41. javelina says

    Paris Hilton and her latest boy toy.

    I usually tell my husband what I want and he buys it. Our finances are mixed so it’s more of a household expense. I guess I’m buying the gift too but I get exactly what I want so I’m not complaining.

    Who paid for the nicest piece of jewelry you own?: My father or my grandmother

  43. Sierranymph says

    Paris Hilton and her fiance, Chris Zylka. My nicest piece of jewelry is a blue topaz necklace. My long time boyfriend (who has since died of cancer) (* Cancer!) gave me the necklace at Christmas, and on New Year’s Eve, he gave me a little off-white suede jacket with a sheepskin collar and when I tried it on, he said, “Look in the pocket, babe!” And there were matching earrings in the pocket. It was the only time he ever bought me jewelry, and I LOVED it.

  45. tell me more says

    Paris Hilton & her fiance. Funny people mag posted he was shsking when he saw the ring…..cue he didnt buy it

  47. boyzmom says

    Yeah, I figured. Paris and her boyfriend weren’t fooling anyone. I doubt this no-name actor would have $2 K, much less $2 mil, to spend on a ring. Lol.

    I bought my most expensive piece of jewellery for our 10th anniversary.

  51. CharpBunny says

    I am going to go with Paris Hilton and the guy she’s dating, whose name escapes me at the moment. Although I didn’t think he was an actor.

  60. mountaingirl82 says

    Paris Hilton and her huge engagement ring… forget the name of the guy. They won’t last

  61. melrose71 says

    Paris Hilton and Chris Zylka. I had to look him up to see who he was so I knew right off the bat he couldn’t have enough money to pay for that ring unless he already came from a rich family.

  62. KCeagle says

    Chris Zylka
    Paris Hilton

    I had to cough up the bucks for my own bling. I’m a guy so I’m okay with this. I’m not really into rocking too many rocks, it becomes bothersome. I purchased myself a blue diamond eternity band. It fits snugly with little bulk and smoothe edges so I forget I’m wearing it.

  71. vanillasky says

    So this is why Paris was not looking surprised in the “proposal video.” It was staged because she bought the ring herself prior.

  72. Seeing40 says

    It was so obvious that Paris Hilton staged the whole thing anyway – a professional photographer at the scene of the proposal! Lol! Remember she was the original KK!!

  76. GingerGirl3 says

    Paris Hilton and whatever her fiancée is named.

    My husband bought my engagement ring which will always be my most expensive jewelry.

  77. radmom says

    Obviously Paris Hilton and Chris Zylka. The ring is so massive, it looks like something out of a toy machine. No way could he have afforded something like that.

  78. carriebradshaw says

    Chris Zylka & Paris Hilton

    she allready had huge engagement rings from some heirs and it did’nt last, so maybe this is the answer: perfect (not really rich) guy and the ring is a cherry on top, a gift for herself.

  81. leebie78 says

    Paris Hilton and her man. EVERYONE knows the only people that could afford that ring have a family name like Hilton. Didn’t realize she named the designer/jeweler.

  82. viewsfromhermes says

    Paris and Chris. That was so obvious where does a Z list actor even afford that type of ring

  86. lucasj says

    Paris Hilton and Chris Zylka. I was assuming that’s what happened, no way he could afford a ring that size (at least not yet, maybe he’ll become more popular and high-profile in time).

    Great to see how happy they look together though!

    I have a 150$ Swarovski necklace a boy bought me in high school, lol.

  91. Jester says

    It’s definitely Paris Hilton and I don’t know the poor guy’s name, and not interested in even looking it up, tbh. As soon as I read the announcement, I knew that she was the one who paid for it.

  93. Dee Bunker says

    This has to be Paris Hilton & Chris what’s-his-name? Saw the gigantic rock. Looked over the actors credits and knew there’s no way he bought that ring….crazy! Unlike her sister Nikki who snagged a Rothschild (ugh) …funny.

  95. mary55geelong says

    Paris Hilton , her actor fiancé and the very staged proposal, with the 2 million $ ring.

    My engagement ring from my now husband of 36+ years, it was given with love, not how much it cost.

  96. Catiesone says

    Paris Hilton and the unpronounceable surname.

    We both did…25 years after 3 children and 3 houses.
