Bella Hadid
Bella Hadid is one of those supermodels who loves to play with her look. She is a big fan of accessories and has been known to rock multiple piercings on her ears and face.

Her piercings are essential to her style, and she wears them to make a statement. Whether it’s cartilage letter studs spelling out her name or a standard bead ring, she has enough lobe and helix piercings on both her ears to match her outfits.
Paris Hilton
Taking the award for most ear piercings (or at least most of the time), Paris Hilton has shown no shortage of style and class. She is fearless in splurging on designer labels and designer footwear if her wallet will allow it.

Amy Winehouse
The late Amy Winehouse captivated audiences with her lyrical wonder. Her music wowed us with a mix of heartbreak and daddy issues, transforming her angst into chart-hugging songs.
She was a child prodigy, born into a family that loved jazz and inherited musical talent from her mother’s side. Her parents played the songs of Frank Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, and Dinah Washington at home.
Despite her immense talent, she became trapped in alcoholism and drug addiction. Her lifestyle destroyed her, and she died at the age of 27.
