Kim Kardashian’s $2 Million 20.5-Carat Engagement Ring [PHOTO]

(GettyImages)

Kim Kardashian‘s engagement ring from brand-new fiancé Kris Humphries is a serious piece of jewelry.

The 20.5-carat Lorraine Schwartz-designed sparkler (photo below) features a 16.5-carat emerald cut center stone flanked by two 2-carat trapezoids… and cost a whopping $2 million.

Even for an NBA player like Humphries, that’s one expensive rock.

Kardashian describes it as “perfect,” but Gossip Cop was wondering…

If you got a $2 million engagement ring, would you be thrilled by the gesture… or upset by the investment?

Check out more PHOTOS of Kim’s ring here!

    a person that describes herself as charitable, who refused a hugely expensive b-day cake saying to give it to the homeless… you tell me…obnoxiously ridic, in a world like today: someone tasteless, worthless, who makes millions by…? what really? oh i forgot: nothing

  • Time topass

    I think its exessive & shows the amount of greed in this family. When was the last time you ever heard anything about Charity & giving to others. Its all about there own personal lifestyle. Given today’s tragedies in US alone its absurd to throw this out there. Love is not measured in diamonds. I assume KIM bought her own ring also because Kris income from last year alone appears to only be about 3 million before taxes. Thsi whols Karadashin family must be having there last 15 minutes. Far too over exposed or under exposed how ever you want to look at it & then we have the porn… AHHH yes the porn..lol

    Both of you who previously commented act like she bought the ring herself, which she did not. No one said that he’s charitable, everyone knows that she is. Besides, it’s his money and if he wants to spend 2 mil on a ring then so be it. He has plenty of money from the NBA. If my fiancee had the money then why would I complain? He obviously put a lot of thought into it and wanted it to be special, Lorraine Schwartz is one of her favorite jewelers. That is not the most expensive engagement ring a star got.
    I’m happy for them as should everyone. She finally looks really happy with her life.

  • Tracyferguson

    How very sad. Think of how many people who have lost everything they owned in the recent disasters around the world….and she walks around with $2,000,000 on her finger? Yep, how very sad.

  • animal lover

    disgusting! Think of the difference 2 million dollars could make to so many people and animals. Absolutely unnecessary and unfortunate. Im betting 2 million that this marriage wont last a year.

  • Time topass

    Laquita you look up his earnings in the last four years & tell me he can afford that ring. Get the blinders off please. This whole family is self indulgent & selfish & over exposed. Time to wake up people on what this family is all about.

  • Ashleypadams

    I think that it’s funny that people are complaining about the fact that she got a 2 million dollar ring. Yes, 2 million dollars goes ALONG way with charity but so do a lot of things that we as America’s don’t need. Why should we critize someone who spends their money the way they choose. We don’t have to always give aways everything that we have. I would hate for people to critize me for working hard and buying something nice. It’s not like it’s Tax Payers’ money. It’s THEIR money.

  • Afrodita17

    I think it’s a waste of money…she’s all about glamour so of course it’ okay with her but that shows the kind of person they are…they’re not humble at all spending that amount in a ring! I really think it’s ugly to be that expensive. This family it’s all about money and publicity it’s really sad!

  • http://www.facebook.com/111andrelsey Chelsea Eiermann

    IF i was going to get one that expensive i would at least like it to be pretty. damn ill choose my 1 carat engagement right anyday!

    6 months if dating and then a 2 million dollar ring? Please.

    on a side not, if i got that as an engagement ring, i’d say get me a different ring…soo not my style

  • Chloe

    Congrats to Kim. But, it shows how young Kris really is….he only makes 3 million a year (yes a lot more then me) but why spend 2 million on a ring and you only make 3 million a year? Not very smart.

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Luna-Petunia/100000789652822 Luna Petunia

    so much for that 2 month salary thingy….. and NO, I do not believe he PAID for the whole thing… 3.2 mill a year, 1st take out the agent and managers takes, what is that 10-15% EACH? Then, not sure where he lives, but say his main is Jersey, that is about another 8% taken off for state, plus what? at least 40 % for federal? So before he gets ANYTHING, he is starting off with LESS THAN HALF… 1.3 maybe? Then you need a home, 2 if he doesn’t stay in NJ (and how many players do?) a fancy car, fancy clothes, EXPENSIVES EXPENSIVES EXPENSIVES… he has been in the NBA for about 7 years, is not one of the highest paid…. 5 MEMBERS of the NETS make more money than him AND THE NETS , well, they SUCK! so, if HE DID BUY IT, at 2 mill. HE IS A FOOL. OH AND HE IS AT THE END OF HIS CONTRACT. He is no Wayne Gretzky of Hockey (only one I can compare, bad with sports players) Gretzky, was at the end of his contract in the 80s with the oilers, in his late 20s, but he had come off winning the stanley cup, had all offensive hockey records, and no one still has touched them, and could pick any TEAM HE WANTED.. (he just got married too) He had MAJOR NAME. His ‘wife’ was a d list actress. Now, Kris is an okay player but, I don’t think he can ‘DEMAND’ where he wants to go. and Kim just might be SURPRISED Very SURPRISED… and yes, I know she ‘flew out to New Orleans to see REGGIE!!! ‘ supposedly ALLTHETIME. but could we possibly be seeing a NEW DASH in say,UHM, MILWAUKEE, or say CLEVELAND?

    everyone here is complete gullible. the ring is VALUED at $2mm, but considering the jewelry designer is a friend of Kims family and its like free advertisement for them, I am 100% positive that he got a huge cut on the price. A good quality 10 CC emerald cut will run you about $500,000 from a typical diamond distributor. Her center stone is just over 16.5 CC’s, so I would guestimate that he paid at the most $800,000 to $900,000 for this ring, if not less. Still a shit load of money for a ring, but hey, its his money and he can do what ever he wants with it. By the way, my family is in the diamond business, so I am not pulling this out of thin air. All of you need to chill on the $2mm…he definitely did not pay that.

  • Tinkerbell

    The ring that Lamar got Khloe (the only Kardashian I actually like) was far prettier. Khloe’s ring might not be as large as Kim’s, but it’s still very stylish while I don’t think Kim’s ring is cute at all. However, it’s not for anyone but her to like it so, if she likes it good for her. In Kim and Kris’ defense, $2 million is a bit much to spend on a ring, but if you have it to spend, then it’s worth it for the person you love. I don’t make nearly enough as Kim or Kris, but I give to charity and I am sure they do too, but just because I give to charity doesn’t mean I should deny myself things that will make me or those I love happy.

    Whatever the “stats” on the ring are, it is still very sad and a waste of money. Everybody knows that jewellery, especially diamonds, has a 100% mark-up……but that is STILL a million bucks! Think what that money could do in Missouri!

  • Sammy

    Why is it Disgusting?How many Millionares out there with tons of money and stars with the most expensive ring,cars houses ect.And because Kim has a 2 million ring on her finger its disgusting?Peopl like you are cold and its not any of us business how they spend their money and what they spend it on.Get a Life!!!

  • Kathy2929

    Tinker Bell Khole Is a Selfish B*&%!!!She think she knows it all i bet her ass is jealous ,JUST LIKE YOU…Dumb Ass…why is it any of your Business how much Kim’s ring cost??Its way better looking than that Stuck up Khole’s ring…GET A LIFE!!!!

  • JSR

    I guess no one took Government in high school. If I recall correctly, the economy strengthens when there is money being put in. In other words, the more things we buy the stronger the economy gets. Since there has been budget cuts people are spending less because they are receiving less. It’s all a cycle. Why do you think the Govt. is always pushing us to spend?

    This explains why the gas prices have been ridiculiously high (aside from other reasons) and why prices keep going up on pretty much everything. In my opinion the people on the show “extreme couponing” are quilty for all the over priced things. How can the economy get better if there is no cash flow… but that’s another topic.

    My point is, whether or not Humpheries paid the whole 2 mil, he IS helping the economy. And all major “celebrities” and millionaires give to charities. Its like a bonus on there application and it stops them from being ridiculed by people who believe most of their money should be given to charities.

    Btw, I am not a fan of the Kardashians in any way.

  • Mary

    stop being haters, she didnt buy the ring herself, and bout charity, how much do you give for charity yourself ?go Kim ! wish you luck !

    Haters ? Of course Kim fans would believe people would be jealous of this. I like the girl and think she’s pretty but this family is such a bunch of fame whores. Yea we do what we can but don’t be superficial and vain ! Come on !

  • http://societyfordaintydamsels.wordpress.com Fennel

    With millions of people struggling to make ends meet in the US . Plus so many on or below the poverty line I find spending millions on an engagement ring rather disgusting. I’m not jealous. I just wonder what her priorities are. She seems terribly materialistic to me. BTW Does she give to any charities. If so what ones?

  • Yellowberry3535

    ray j put something in her mouth, now chris put something on her finger.

  • Chloe

    I totally agree. Khloe has become my fav of the sisters. I also like her ring more then I do Kim’s. Khloe’s ring is stylish and also unique. Kim’s I’m seen it before but if someone gave it to me I would it was the best thing in the world.

  • Anonymous

    no one said she’s charitable all the time. so she got a big ring, it made her happy. everyone deserves to be happy.

    i completely agree with misscheeks. who the heck are you to judge? whenever you have some extra money are YOU donating it? she’s been involved in various charities, but its her engagement ring for christs sake. let her be happy..

  • Anonymous

    and think about all the kids that wouldnt be starving if you donated the money you spend on internet to charity. stop judging.

  • Anonymous

    if it wasnt spent on the ring it would have been spent on something else. people arent arguing that they should have burned the money. prices are rising due to inflation not the governments desire to get people to spend more.

    google it, thats what i did. and you have to put things into perspective. hollywood is on a different level. everyone is wearing expensive clothes and living in expensive houses. you dont show up to events in a $90 dress. $2mil can go a long way, but so could the money you spend on things for yourself… so stop pointing your finger. just because she makes more money doesnt mean she’s more guilty. what percent of YOUR income has gone to charity? bet its less than hers…

    I don’t remember anybody scoffing when Liz Taylor wore zillions of dollars worth of diamonds. Everybody thought she was gorgeous and how wonderful to let us all look at her bling. I think it’s great and agree with the post above that it may be worth 2 mill, but he probably paid much less for it due to publicity, etc. You go girl!

    Being fortunate enough to buy a 2 million ring awesome. Being sensible enough to not flaunt it at a time when most people are not even able to hold onto their 100,000 homes, priceless.

  • Nadiss19

    whats really pathetic is how she hesitated to say yes intil right after she had seen the ring. materialistic she is in love with love.

  • anonymous

    wow, no need to be against kim because of her ring. kris obviously loves her enough to spend that much on her. infact its his money, hes worked for it. he didnt work for it to give it away to the charities. i bet, half of yous havent donated to the charities. so why judge.

  • lovethelifeyoulive

    You my friend should get 2 million dollars, there marriage lasted what, 72 days?
