Messika draws A-list crowd with sparkling statement pieces
She followed that with hip pieces like Glam'Azone Double ring and Gatsby multi-hoop earrings and collaborated on capsules with Gigi Hadid. Her downtown diamond aesthetic resonated with tastemakers across the globe.
Messika added High Jewelry in 2013 and quickly became an A-list mainstay. The brand's first collaboration with Kate Moss was unveiled in 2020 and stars including Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, Emma Stone, Selena Gomez, Kerry Washington, Olivia Munn and Serena Williams have all rocked the brand's bold creations on red carpets.
Gwyneth Paltrow is a fan of Messika as well.

Beyoncé attended the 2020 and 2022 Super Bowls wearing diamond-frosted High Jewelry. In 2023, Rihanna performed at halftime wearing a High Jewelry ear party: the Illusionnistes earring that splits into three parts, the Equilibristes diamond clip, the Magnetic Love earring, the Diamond Illusionnistes clip and part of the Diamond Equalizer earring.
Four years ago, Messika held its first High Jewelry runway show in the gardens of the Ritz hotel in Paris. The event celebrated the maison's ongoing collaboration with Moss and highlighted diamond, malachite, turquoise and mother-of-pearl creations, from headpieces and fringed necklaces to supersized earrings.
The glittering event is now annual. Last September, Valérie welcomed Cardi B, Natalia Vodianova, Isabelle Adjani, Future, Nina Dobrev, Cole Sprouse, Heidi Klum and the new face of her collection, Lucien Laviscount, to her star-studded front row.
'This show goes beyond jewelry; it embodies the essence of our Maison,' says Messika. 'It is an exceptional moment powered by music and fashion. It reflects our energy and singularity, which drive us to continuously create our High Jewelry pieces as true fashion statements.'
She sent out 125 dazzling Midnight Sun Opus II creations, from bib necklaces and cocktail rings to the most modern of accents: lip jewelry, body belts for men and women, headpieces and nail jewels. Most spectacular of all were the Supernature and Fragments of Time diamond rivière necklaces, holding stones measuring up to over 36 carats.
This High Jewelry is low-key cool.

Country star Zach Bryan vows he will 'never play in Kansas City' after feud with Chiefs fans
Country singer Zach Bryan has a bone to pick with Kansas City. On Friday, the country singer-songwriter — who is a known Philadelphia Eagles fan — took to social media to stir up some drama with fellow NFL fans. After the Kansas City Chiefs failed to become the first NFL team to win three consecutive Super Bowls due to their loss to the Eagles earlier this year, Bryan wrote on X, "Where are all the three peat people from last year:/." Shortly after one fan pointed out that the singer had "singled out one fanbase" which "sells out his shows," the country star made a shocking remark. "Please understand I will never play in Kansas City," the musician wrote, responding to the user's comment. People were quick to point out that Bryan had already played in Kansas City in the past. The country star had performances there in 2021, 2023 and 2024. Bryan followed up on his previous comment, writing on X, "I'll be about to finish my show and then get a taunting call if I play at that stadium." His comments got a mix of reactions, with some users praising the country star while others slammed him. A representative for Bryan did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment. This isn't the first time Bryan has had beef with a fan. In 2024, Bryan scolded a concertgoer after a member of his band was hit with an object. The country crooner, who was on his "Quittin' Time Tour" at the time, was playing a concert at the Tacoma Dome in Washington when a nondescript object was thrown on stage, hitting a member of Bryan's band, as seen in a video shared on Instagram. Bryan, whose breakup with ex-girlfriend Brianna LaPaglia caught a lot of attention, can be seen walking promptly toward a microphone to seemingly address what had happened before turning around and retrieving the object, now lying on the ground. The "Pink Skies" singer walked across the stage to another standing mic, pointing out to the crowd looking for the culprit. "Who threw this?" he asked. "Who was it? Does anybody know?" the 29-year-old continued. "Who we pointing at?" "Don't throw s--- at concerts, huh?" he said, scanning the venue before walking off to join his bandmate at center stage. However, Bryan then changed his mind, realizing he had one more thing to add. "And if you guys do know who threw it, we can get 'em out of here," he said. "If we ever find out who did." WATCH: ZACH BRYAN SCOLDS FAN FOR THROWING OBJECT ON STAGE DURING CONCERT In May 2023, Bryan asked for a woman to be removed from his concert because she tried to snatch his guitar out of his hands. "Hey, get her out of here," Bryan can be heard telling his crew as he walked among his audience. "Took it personal, but nothing against whoever wound up getting kicked out," he shared to X at the time. He added later, "I don't mind people being respectful and trying to touch me or the guitar, but if you try to rip it out of my hands I promise I'll rip you out of whatever venue we're at, respectfully, of course."

'The Wolf of Wall Street' director added, 'I mean, I was just threatening.
