Not so long ago in a city not too far away (Hollywood), actor Hayden Christensen proposed to Rachel Bilson, herself of silver screen fame. In late February of this year, People.com reported that the couple had become engaged over the previous holiday season. Hayden, 27 - and made uber-famous for having portrayed the role of “pre-gothpunk makeover” Darth Vader in the most recent STAR WARS trilogy - proposed in a still yet disclosed manner to the actress of the same age, the two having met on the set of the movie, Jumper. News of the engagement was leaked to the above named source by an un-named individual who had sat on a transcontinental flight next to Ms. Bilson. After having been asked about her lovely ring and whether or not she had set a date yet, the actress replied, “No, we just got engaged.”
As for the lovely ring, Rachel has been far more clever at keeping those details under wraps than the announcement of the impending nuptial. However, careful observation and use of some elaborate imaging software has allowed us to make a few educated guesses as to the nature of the engagement ring. Before we begin our examination, the management here at weddingrings.net/blog would like very much to thank our special speculatory investigative team, ‘The Wing-Dings Squad’. They are, true to their motto, “The best darn wing-dings on these here interwebs!’
Judging by the photograph page right, the ring from afar clearly stands out at a naked eye viewing distance of approximately 8 -10 feet. This has instantly led many to speculate the rings weight to be at least 2.5 carats. The inset of the photo, pictured within the red circle, is an enhanced image showing a great deal of detail. The diamond itself is most probably a solitaire-cut stone, but when our experts take into account the angle at which the photo was taken and run it through 3-D imaging analysis software, the Wing-Dings have calculated a 17% chance that is potentially an unorthodox “rounded oval-cut”. Light refraction analysis of the stone itself has determined the ring to be of a less than natural origin. Though not a paste based, or otherwise faux stone, it emits a high ultra-red spectromittal refraction when exposed to sunlight, thus proving it was likely man made! The Rings metal is, according to light wave reflectional analysis tests, either pure platinum or a platinum-based white gold alloy.
The design and presentation of the overall piece is quite tasteful. The band of the engagement ring appears to have somekind of segmented or corrigated exterior, perhaps itself inlaid with small stones or consisting of etched designs.
We wish the young couple all the best of luck this galaxy can afford them! We keep high hopes Hayden doesn’t do Rachel like that deadbeat Anakin “Darthman Cometh and Went” Skywalker did Padme’ Amidala…abandoning her pregnant self on some desolate rock in the middle of no where… no weapons with which to defend her poeple… having to rely on Uncle Obi Wan to raise her son.







Really, the title does say it all, people! Pictured left is Hip-Hop diva Beyonce’s wedding ring presented by her husband and sometimes muse, rapper Jay-Z, on the couple’s wedding day. And what a wedding ring it so uber-obviously is indeed! The groom wanted to be sure and make the exchanging of rings at the ceremony would be more than memorable and so went against trends and tradition, deciding on this 18 carat behemoth over the more standard styles of wedding bands. Like so many things in the music industry, the wedding ring is larger than life and, at an estimated cost of nearly three million dollars. Still, what is a low mere seven figures for a woman like Beyonce’ Knowles when, in the same year as the wedding alone, you’re making an estimated forty plus million dollars?
