When Stevie Nicks sang about seeing “crystal visions” in Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 hit “Dreams,” she helped inspire the L.A. stereotype of a New Age “witchy” woman who wouldn’t dare leave the house without her cleansing quartz. “Really?” you ask. “Like who?” Well, thanks for asking, because we just so happen to have a list of the crystal-crazed celebs: “But it was one of the best shows I’ve ever done and I had these bloody crystals in my hand.” But she lost her crystals before the Grammys, where technical issues plagued her performance. “Then the Grammys came and I lost my f**king crystals!” she explained. “I had a gig two or three days before them and I think I left them at this venue. “It turned out to be the worst, most disastrous performance that I have ever done. Well, apart from one really early on when I was doing a gig in Angel and I got so drunk I fell off my chair. But I got some new crystals now and everything’s been going well.” Describing herself as a “hippie,” Adele added that she now meditates before concerts so that she’s “in the zone.” “I mean literally I’m turning into a walking cliche but I’m proud of it—if it means my shows are good then I don’t mind,” she said. “I collect crystals and place them around my home and office to create positive energy,” she added. According to the Daily Mail, Beckham uses crystals backstage at her fashion shows, specifically pink quartz and black tourmaline. “If I told you my backstage rituals, and was honest you would think I was a little weird. I carry my crystals with me which some people might think as odd but it works for us.” “I don’t stay single for long,” Perry told Cosmopolitan. “I carry a lot of rose quartz, which attracts the male. Maybe I need to calm it down with the amethyst.” “My crystal wand is incredibly special to me, and is one of my most cherished items,” Kerr writes on the KORA blog. “It’s made of Clear Quartz and is studded with Rose Quartz. Clear Quartz is a great stone for gathering, directing and transmitting energy … it can also transform negative energy into positive energy, and Rose Quartz is a wonderful stone to heal and protect the heart, balance emotions, release stress and tension, and encourage love and self-esteem. “Crystals can be used in many different methods of healing. In addition to using on a specific area of the body, or … to locate blockages to cleanse and heal them, they can also be used in massage. “Massaging the body with a crystal helps to release tension from the body, while at the same time the stone’s healing energy is transferred to the body. I hold my crystal during meditation, prayer, deep belly breathing … I also sleep with it nearby so I’m constantly receiving its special healing energies.”
