There aren't too many quarterbacks that have ever been able to make their own play calls throughout the midst of a game but one man in Terry Bradshaw did just that and became one of the greatest passers to ever take the field. It takes an extreme amount of courage, poise, and leadership to take ten other alpha personalities and direct them in unison for a greater cause then themselves and Terry Bradshaw didn't only have the balls to do so, he also had one of the most powerful arms football has ever seen. From 1966 to 1969, Terry Bradshaw attended Louisiana Tech University to play his college ball. In his first two seasons, Bradshaw started behind Phil Robertson, who is now known as the inventor of the duck caller and television personality on the reality show, Duck Dynasty. His junior year, Bradshaw led the Bulldogs to a 9-2 season and 33-13 victory over Akron in the Rice Bowl. His senior year, Bradshaw led the Bulldogs to an 8-2 overall record.
In the 1970 NFL Draft, Terry Bradshaw was selected 1st overall by the Pittsburgh Steelers where he would play his entire fourteen-season NFL career. In his second season with the Steelers, Bradshaw became the starting quarterback and helped the Steelers secure their first-ever championship defeating the Minnesota Vikings in Super Bowl IX. This win sparked a four-title reign within a six-year period as Bradshaw led the Steelers on field as a quarterback and technically an offensive coordinator winning Super Bowls, X, XIII, and XIV all the while being named MVP for his performances in Super Bowls XIII and XIV. Terry Bradshaw became the first quarterback ever to win three and four Super Bowls. Somehow, Bradshaw only was invited to three Pro Bowls (1975, 1978, and 1979) and earned one NFL MVP Award (1978).
In the US, the average spent on an engagement ring is $6,351 but how do these figures compare with our favorite celebrities? The answer: they don't. As the diamonds increase in size, obviously the price tag appreciates handsomely. Well, we've compiled a list of some of the most expensive celebrity engagement rings.
This list would be nothing without Kim Kardashian's rock from Kanye, which clocked in at around a cool $4 million when he presented it to her at his stadium proposal in October 2013. Unfortunately, though, the 15-carat sparkler was among the jewelry stolen during Kim's infamous Paris robbery in 2016.
Jennifer Lopez's husband Alex Rodriguez popped the question to the singer, and he really had to step it up to outshine her previous engagement rings—and wow, did he deliver. The baseball star proposed with a reported 15-20 carat emerald cut stunner set on a platinum band that was estimated at $5 million. It's getting harder and harder not to be fooled by the rocks she's got...
It should come as no surprise that Beyonce herself totes one of the world's highest-valued diamonds. Weighing in at 24 carats, Jay reportedly paid around $5 million (now worth $6,047,013) for Bey's flashy emerald-cut ring back in 2008.
Anna Kournikova's relationship Latin music artist Enrique Iglesias since the early '00s has been one of the most lowkey celebrity relationships to date. That is with the exception of her $5,400,000 engagement ring that made headlines in 2004. Now, worth a whopping $7,443,596, the giant yellow stunner was spotted on Kournikova even during her tennis matches. (Pssst! It's rumored she got two rings from Iglesias. Prior to this, she sported an equally giant pink pear-shaped ring.)
Clocking in as the most expensive celebrity engagement ring, Mariah Carey's 35-carat bling from ex-fiancé James Packer reportedly cost a cool $10 million. And the "Obsessed" singer seemed to be a bit, well, obsessed with the jewel. She continued to wear the ring over a year post-breakup, and didn't part ways with the bauble until May 2018, selling it to a Los Angeles jeweler for $2.1 million.
