While many of us wish we were famous enough to get jewelry gifted by Drake, we’ll have to settle on receiving more humble gifts from our loved ones. Regardless, we can’t help but ogle at the ridiculous pieces of jewelry our favorite celebrities have purchased for themselves or others. Truly, the lifestyles of the rich and famous will never fail to amuse us. But one day, maybe we’ll be able to blow our entire life savings on an iced-out AP like Shedeur Sanders. But for now, we’ll just look and dream.
Some of the highlights from the past month included Ice Spice’s “Munchkins” chain from Dunkin', Whoopi Goldberg flexing a piece inspired by the folding chair used in the viral Alabama boat brawl, Doja Cat’s custom grills by Gabby Elan, and more. Take a closer look at some of the biggest celebrity jewelry purchases from September 2023 below.
Ice Spice’s Dunkin’ Munchkins Chain
Jeweler: Elliot Eliantte
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve likely heard that Ice Spice collaborated with Dunkin’ to release her own limited-edition beverage last month. If you haven’t sipped on it yet, the Ice Spice Munchkins Drink is a frozen coffee beverage, blended with pumpkin Munchkins donut holes, then topped with whipped cream and caramel drizzle. It’s certainly one of the most over-the-top drinks Dunkin’ has ever put out and was rolled out with a commercial bringing together Ben Affleck and Spice. With Dunkin' being one of the biggest coffee chains out there, who knows how much Spice got paid to do this. However, it seems like a hallmark of this deal with Spice was an iced out Eliantte chain inspired by the Dunkin’ Munchkins logo. Spice prominently wore the chain during the MTV Video Music Awards this year, where she won the award for Best New Artist. Although we’ll likely never see this piece of ice in real life, what you can do is visit a Dunkin’ on Fordham Road in the Bronx to see a mural Dunkin’ made just for her.
Doja Cat’s Grills
Jeweler: Gabby Elan
Doja Cat released her latest album Scarlet last month and truly celebrated in style by copping several pieces by Gabby Elan. The most substantial piece she got from the celeb-loved New York City-based jeweler was this set of diamond grills, which Doja wore in the music video for “Demons.” She also purchased various tooth caps and spacers from Elan. One of the most notable spacers was this piece that resembled Dior’s iconic letter-based logo. She also wore a spacer that resembled Chanel’s double-C logo to the MTV VMAs this year.
Whoopi Goldberg’s Alabama Boat Brawl Folding Chair Necklace
Jeweler: Pavé The Way
This summer, the entire world witnessed a viral fight that occurred on a boat dock in Montgomery, Alabama. For those who need a refresher, the brawl started after a Black co-captain of a city-owned riverboat was suddenly attacked by a group of white boaters who refused to move their vessel when the riverboat tried to dock. Once other Black Alabama locals saw the co-captain getting attacked, they rushed in to defend him. One person, Reggie Ray, went viral for hitting the attackers with a folding chair. The story was too good for Whoopi Goldberg to pass up. When the comedian came back for Season 27 of The View last month, she spoke about how much she loved the memes from the fight and showed off a necklace that resembled a folding chair. The necklace was produced by the New York City-based label Pavé The Way. And yes, you can buy a gold-plated version that’s iced-out with diamonds right now.

Sexyy Red has become super close with Drake ever since she began performing during stops on Drizzy’s It’s All a Blur tour. And Drake truly cemented their friendship together last month by gifting the St. Louis rapper a true keepsake. Yes, Drake gifted Sexyy Red a Cartier watch flooded with diamonds. “Thank you Drakeeeeeeee ice me df out den. big boss sht I appreciate dat big dawg,” captioned Sexyy Red on an Instagram post flexing the piece. While it’s unclear how much the watch cost Drake, a similar Santos de Cartier Skeleton watch directly from Cartier can cost $30,400 alone.
Guram Gvasalia’s Vetements Grills
Jeweler: Gabby Elan
Doja Cat wasn’t the only big celeb to get a pair of grills from Gabby Elan. Fashion designer Guram Gvasalia also hit up the jeweler to craft a special pair of grills. In true Vetements fashion, the grills simply spell out the label’s name and vaguely resemble vampire fangs. Vetements turns 10 this year and Guram truly found a fitting way to celebrate the brand’s big milestone in style.
