Kevin O’Leary reveals custom 101 carat diamond NBA tribute necklace at 2026 Actor Awards
What is Kevin O’Leary’s motto for the 2026 Actor Awards? Go big or go home.
The Marty Supreme star arrived at a ceremony hosted by Kristen Bell at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles on March 1 wearing must-see accessories featuring rare collector’s items honoring two NBA legends.
In addition to a black sequin suit, Kevin, 71, walked the red carpet wearing a stunning 101-carat Tiffany diamond necklace and a framed Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant Logoman trading card, which he made sure to point out to photographers as “one of a kind, baby.” (Click here to see all the stars on the Actor Awards red carpet.)
Ahead of the event, the Shark Tank star discussed the importance of honoring the late Los Angeles Lakers icon, who died in a helicopter crash in January 2020 along with seven other people, including his 13-year-old daughter Gianna Bryant, explaining the gesture was a way to “bring Kobe back to the Los Angeles that we all loved him for.”
“This thing weighs about two pounds of pure gold and diamonds,” he said while kissing the collectible in a video posted to X (formerly Twitter) hours before the show. “But it’s all for Kobe.”
