Being ‘in’ on the proposal plan before your hubby-to-be pops the question certainly does have its benefits. You can make sure your manicure is on fleek for that engagement ring selfie, of course. And you can also have a hand in choosing that beautiful bauble, thereby ensuring it’s a sparkler you’ll want to wear forever… Or that it shares the same diamond cut as the engagement ring of your favorite celebrity!
Are you a Mariah Carey or Lady Gaga kind of a girl? That is, are emerald-cut diamonds or heart-shaped sparklers more your style? Behold the ten most popular diamond cuts — and famous ladies who wear ’em! So now when you hit the jewelers, you can tell the salesperson, “I want what Jennifer Aniston has!” (Minus the $500,000 price tag…) How cool would that be, right?

Meanwhile, Vergara’s sparkly stone matches her personality to a tee (i.e. it’s BIG!).
Heart
Heart-shaped engagement rings are definitely unique — but they still set our hearts aflame!

Lady Gaga is currently flaunting a huge heart-cut diamond from her fiancé Taylor Kinney.
And although Nicki Minaj isn’t engaged (yet!) her sweetheart, Meek Mill, gifted her a yellow heart-shaped diamond that has since given us permanent heart eyes.
Princess
Kate Bosworth, Hilary Duff, and Snooki are three famous ladies who’ve had regal rings with princess-cut diamonds.

And for Jersey Shore royalty, Snooki, nothing less than the queenly cut would do. Her’s is set in a band featuring two-carat round-cut diamonds, as well.
Marquis
When it comes to the more unique marquis cut, Portia de Rossi, Ashlee Simpson, Christina Milian are all fans of the stylish stone.
