SONGSTRESS AND
ACTRESS
I have eleven rings on my hands today. My favorite at the moment is the "God" ring (right hand, middle finger), because it' beautiful. I would never give away a ring but I'm into acquiring...

I'm wearing two rings. My favorite is the one on the middle finger, the big one, because... well, it's big! I don't want to give a ring to anybody human, but maybe my cyber-girlfriend.

YOHEI/
STUDENT
I'm wearing one silver ring and three rubber rings. My fave is the chrome hearts cross-band ring because it's cool and original - cross my heart! I'd put a ring on the finger of my girlfriend - or ex-girlfriend!

I've got to hand it to you: You've got them wrapped around your fingers... Rings - they're finger-lickin' fabulous. Our roving reporter hit the streets to find a ring-a-ring of posers: Put your finger on it - how many rings are you wearing? Which is your favorite and why? And whose finger would you most like to put your ring on?

There are two rings on my fingers. I don't have a favorite - everything I buy is equally cool! I want to put a ring on my girl's goldfinger.

I'm actually wearing three rings, although one isn't visible. My favorite type of ring is a man-sized one. I'd like to put a ring on the finger of Takeshi Kaneshiro. Or, failing that, my boyfriend.
