From 3-D manicures to patterned polishes, Hollywood’s A-listers have a reputation for rocking out-of-the-box nail designs.

Cardi B, Machine Gun Kelly, Dove Cameron and more stars have shocked Us with talons so fierce that we had to do a double take.

One of Cardi’s most talked about looks came in January 2023. In a carousel of photos, the rapper’s nails were elongated with acrylics and filed into a square shape. Manicurist Jenny Bui — who has worked with Cardi for over a decade — adorned her nails with colorful rhinestones in various shapes and sizes.

In 2025, influencer Emilie Kiser gave Us major holiday inspo with her Christmas-inspired set in December. Her mani featured a clear base with red and silver gingham stripes, resembling festive wrapping paper. “When you want holiday nails, but ones that aren’t too crazy✨✨✨,” she captioned a TikTok video featuring her new claws.
