Christina Hendricks Loses $850,000 Diamond Bracelet at Golden Globes

Many have compared voluptuous Christina Hendricks to Marilyn Monroe, but for Hendricks, diamonds were surely not a girl's best friend at the Golden Globe Awards.

The 'Mad Men' star lost an $850,000 diamond bracelet on the red carpet, according to the NY Post. The bracelet was one of two loaned to Hendricks for the evening by Chopard, and the redhead beauty was appalled to discover her jewels had slipped off.

Once Hendricks was inside the ballroom, the actress allegedly panicked, asking everyone around her if they'd seen an errant diamond bracelet. As the stars were encouraged to take their seats before the start of the show, Hendricks scurried back to the red carpet to search for her missing bracelet.

Hendricks was one lucky lady, because an event worker outside found the bracelet and returned it to the star. She returned to her table inside the ballroom, but found the bracelet's clasp was too tricky to safely fasten.

In an attempt to get the jewels to safety, Hendricks decided to turn the bracelet over to her publicist, who was outside. Despite not being allowed in or out of the auditorium, Hendricks was able to get to one of the venue's doors to the outside.

A guard opened the door a crack for her, then looked on in awe as the vixen pulled the strand of diamonds from her ample cleavage and then handed off the bracelet to her publicist for safekeeping.

Chopard's rep confirmed that Hendricks was wearing 200 carats of their diamonds. "Whoever put [the bracelet] on her wrist may have not closed the safety clasp correctly," the rep said. "But both bracelets and her earrings were returned in perfect condition today."

Who cares what she lost and then found in a time where real people are being kicked out on the street because their homes were ripped from under them, where real people have to jump through hoops to maintain their food stamps because it's not a right to not starve but a priviledge to eat, and people's utilities are shut off. Some don't even have a car to live in when kicked out on the street.

Those people should be cared about and reported, not some Diva whose lent expensive jewels because Cubic Zirconia aren't good enough and has someone else pay her bills. Bet she doesn't even know how to fill her own gas tank without her publicist.

I'm sorry but this is Popeater. Also known as entertainment news. If you are looking for reports on the hardships that "real" people are going through, you are in the WRONG place. Hello?!

So what's your point? I mean other than that was not such a gripping story that didn't need to be told.

Lucky bracelet getting a rack ride!

850,000 dollars for a piece of jewelry? Disgusting, that could sure feed a lot of hungry people.

By Tiffany

What's the purpose of borrowing jewels anyways...it's not impessive, buy your own...it's an investment.

By Good for her

Why do people jump all over people that have expensive things? If someone buys something that expensive it just goes back into the economy and they pay tax on it, besides people can do whatever they want with THIER money.

Its just an interesting story, no offense to Popeater but I read you for entertainment, go to a political site if you don't like this one, its not exactly a serious site for issues!

I think it's just a trumped up story anyway. As in it never really happened. What a way to get attention - huh?
