* ''Anime/{{Daltanious}}'': To emphasize her wealth, [[AlienPrincess Princess]] [[AlphaBitch Catine]] has an exquisitely designed crown. It has three prongs at the center, two prongs near the ends, and two leaves at the side, all made of gold. She also wears beautiful clothes, and snarks at [[NiceGuy Sanae]] for looking poor and like "a servant girl".

* ''Anime/{{Daimos}}'': The crowns of the [[AngelicAliens Baam-seijin crowns]] look like serpents and the tips are designed to explode once they're detached from the headpiece. Richter, being the AlienPrince, has a crown that looks like a golden bird instead of a snake and is attached to a red cloth headpiece.

* ''Anime/DoraemonNobitaAndTheKingdomOfClouds'' have the Golden Crown that controls the titular kingdom, where anybody wearing it have everyone else within it's vicinity obeying all his / her orders. Nobita wears this crown for most of the movie (even on the posters and DVD covers) but [[spoiler:it was stolen by the villains at the end, who proceed to hijack the entire kingdom for nefarious purposes]].

* ''Creator/{{Pixar}}'':

* ''Anime/CodeGeass'': Averted, even though it's full of royals, but not in the CLAMP artbook - they did in fact design one for Lelouch [[spoiler:as Emperor]]. They comment that it does look more like a tiara.

* Chappell Roan wears a tiara on the cover of ''The Rise and Fall Of a Midwest Princess.''

* Music/{{Beyonce}}, fitting with her Queen Bey status, is no stranger to wearing a cool crown, such as [[https://www.vogue.com/article/house-of-malakai-beyonce-grammys-rick-owens-headwear the one she wore]] in her 2017 Grammy's performance.

** '''Small hoop crowns''', much smaller than the skull of the wearer, are typical for queens and worn using pins to hold them in place. Queen Victoria was known for having a silver, diamond-encrusted one from 1870 onward. (Both the size and the material were chosen so she could wear it with the widow's weeds she insisted on wearing after the death of Prince Albert in 1861--gold and colored jewels were not allowed in Victorian mourning colors, but silver and colorless jewels like diamonds were, and a larger crown would not fit atop her widow's cap.)

* Music/KendrickLamar wears a [[https://www.vogue.com/article/kendrick-lamar-crown-of-thorns-tiffany-co custom-made diamond-encrusted crown of thorns]] on the cover of ''Music/MrMoraleAndTheBigSteppers,'' an homage to the one that [[Literature/TheBible Jesus wore]]. He also wore it while performing on tour for the album.

** In ''VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamLand'', [[spoiler:there is a powerful crown called the Master Crown guarded by the four-headed dragon Landia that Magolor desires to rule the universe with. He guides Kirby and the others to beat Landia for him and takes it.]]
** In ''VideoGame/KirbyStarAllies'', [[spoiler:Void Termina's avianoid form uses a similar crown to attack. It's more obvious when facing it on Soul Melter difficulty, where it shares a very similar color scheme.]]

* The cover of Music/JanelleMonae's ''The [=ArchAndroid=]'' shows her wearing a golden headdress that resembles a metropolitan city.

* The cover of Music/JoannaNewsom's ''Music/{{Ys}}'' shows her wearing a flower crown.

** ''WesternAnimation/AtlantisTheLostEmpire'': The queens (the unnamed queen seen in the prologue and Kida at the end of the film) wear small gold tiaras with large pink and blue feathers coming out of the back on their heads. The only king shown in the film, [[Creator/LeonardNimoy Kashekhim Nedakh]], does not wear a crown.

* In ''Fanfic/QueensOfMewni'', the crowns are so distinctive from each other that they are noted in their queens' respective entries. Even so, the crown of Helia, the Light of Power is of special note because it's ''her wand'': she was so powerful that she could cast spells without her wand, and after her mother chastised her one too many times about being careless with her wand, Helia transformed it into her tiara.
