The Bigger the bling, the better?

Celebrity engagement rings

If you’re going to pop the question to a celebrity dahling, you better be ready to dish out some fat cash. If you ain’t got a happy wife you sure as hell will not have a happy life. Better yet, your engagement sure as hell isn’t going to last long and that ring will end up on eBay.

While we have heard of numerous celebrity engagements all around Hollywood since the New Year, did the size and price of the bling have anything to do with celebrity starlets saying “yes”?

And is it true that the price tag on that big fat rock will determine how long that engagement will last?
