The Grammy Awards had its 65th music-filled celebration on Sunday, February 5. While artists were busy presenting and accepting awards, our eyes were glued to the hairstyles, makeup, and nails of each celebrity. There were more than a few looks that delighted our beauty hearts, but it was Megan Fox’s luxurious diamond-encrusted manicure that dazzled us because each nail was made of 14-karat solid white gold.
Fox arrived at the awards night dressed in a white sleeveless gown with gold appliqués on the bodice to pair with those expensive claws. To create the gold nails, manicurist Brittany Boyce worked with the founder of Marrow Fine Jewelry, Jillian Sᴀssone. Boyce filed and shaped Aprés Nail Gel-X extensions to perfectly fit Fox’s natural nails.
The stiletto nail tips were 3D scanned by Sᴀssone to create custom molds that were filled with 14-karat white gold. After the white gold stiletto tips were set, Boyce polished and shined them before arranging and adhering 15 white diamonds into the shape of a cross on each tip.
It was difficult for viewers at home to see all the details of this expensive manicure, but you can see the nails on Fox’s hand above and a close-up of the tips below. It took a total of 150 white diamonds and an unspecified amount of 14-karat white gold to create these sharpened tips.
Honestly, part of us wants to know how much these nails are worth, but at the same time, we’re almost scared to hear how expensive they were to create. Regardless of the hefty price tag, we’ve got to give props to Fox, Boyce, and Sᴀssone for what may be our favorite manicure from the 2023 Grammys.
