Las Vegas—The verdict is out on whether or not Britney Spears made her comeback at last night's MTV Video Music Awards, but she certainly radiated in diamond jewelry, including diamond stud earrings, a diamond cuff and 18-karat white gold and diamond rings by Hellmuth.

And she wasn't the only one.

Fine diamond jewelry made a strong showing at the MTV VMAs, especially in statement earrings, stacked bangle bracelets and right-hand rings.

Donning all three trends were singer Mary J. Blige, in 18-karat gold and diamond earrings and bangles by Ofira, and an 18-karat gold right-hand ring with white and brown diamonds by Lorraine Schwartz; singer Rihanna, in diamond studs, stacked diamond bracelets and a diamond right-hand ring; actress Jennifer Garner, in diamond earrings, a diamond bracelet and a diamond right-hand ring by Cartier; and socialite Paris Hilton, in diamond earrings, diamond cuff bracelets and a diamond right-hand ring.

Beyonce Knowles wore Lorraine Schwartz diamond bracelets to the MTV VMAs.

Beyoncé Knowles supported two of the trends with stacked diamond "Caviar" bangles and diamond "Monkey" collection earrings and bracelets by Lorraine Schwartz. Singer Ashanti, also in Lorraine Schwartz, wore platinum and diamond Caviar hoop earrings, a platinum and diamond bracelet, platinum and diamond bangles and a diamond right-hand ring.

Other celebrities draped in bling were Ashlee Simpson, Audrina Patridge, Eve, Jennifer Hudson, Lauren Conrad, Ludacris, Megan Fox, Nicole Scherzinger and Whitney Port.

Even MTV's "Moon Man" award was done up in diamonds. Jacob and Co. crafted a special version of the statue in 14-karat yellow gold and white and black diamonds totaling 13.75 carats, valued at $200,000.
