- On Sunday, Lady Gaga attended the 2019 Oscars at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles wearing a strapless black dress designed by Alexander McQueen.
- The nominee accessorized with long black gloves and a giant, 128-carat yellow diamond necklace.
- The necklace included the same stone that Audrey Hepburn wore in publicity photos for "Breakfast at Tiffany's."
- It's said to be worth at least $30 million.
- On Twitter, fans had a lot to say about the jewelry, including some people who said it reminded them of a necklace worn in the movie "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days."
Lady Gaga channeled an iconic Audrey Hepburn look at the Oscars. From her black gown and elbow-long gloves to her sleek updo and glitzy diamond jewelry, Gaga looked like a 21st-century Holly Golightly.
The giant canary-yellow diamond at the center of her necklace is, in fact, the same stone that Hepburn previously wore in a publicity photo shoot for "Breakfast at Tiffany's." The necklace is said to be worth at least $30 million.
The 128-carat Tiffany diamond was found in South Africa in 1877, and was later brought to Paris where it was cut into a cushion shape.
The diamond has been set in jewelry on at least four occasions, most famously when Hepburn wore it in the 1961 photo shoot.

According to a press release sent to E! News, "this marks the first time in history that the priceless 141-year-old Tiffany Diamond has graced an awards show red carpet."
