Madonna wears 1,000 carats of diamonds to Oscars after party

Are diamonds really a girl's best friend?

Welcome to Madonna's material world. The legendary songstress wore 1,000 carats of Neil Lane diamonds to an Oscar after party, according to a press release issued by the jewelry designer on Monday.

Madonna posted a photo to her Instagram account on Monday with the caption "The Oscar goes to Party ## 7!!!!! #revolutionoflove."

Just a little hard candy adorning her body, no big deal, right?

To put Madonna's 1,000 carats of diamonds into perspective, US Weekly notes that Jennifer Lawrence's diamond and platinum chain was a mere 100 carats valued at more than $2 million.

But the Material Girl also wore some less extravagant jewels, too. Her headchain wasn't made of diamonds but of -- gasp -- Swarovski crystals instead. if you're looking to own that lovely headchain designed by Johanna Johnson, you can own it for about $375 CAD.
