In the last week, Lady Gaga's convinced me that a heart-shaped diamond is surprisingly chic and made me jealous my engagement ring doesn't include these cool initials (gah, Gaga!). Now she's sharing her engagement story, and it's sweet and endearingly normal-girl, something I appreciate in the age of celebs getting down on one knee in rented-out baseball stadiums with full orchestras and fireworks.
"First he gave me a Ring Pop. That was kind of amazing and I was crying, I was so excited," she told Access Hollywood on the Oscar red carpet. "I said yes! right away, and then he pulled out the heart-shaped diamond. [But] first it was candy. I was happy with the candy. When you're in love and have love, it makes everything better."
Ahh! Candy and diamonds sounds like a pretty fantastic combo, no?
Did your engagement story lean more toward the simple or the super-planned-out side of the spectrum?
Mine was the former: He asked while we were walking home with takeout and our dog. There were no theatrics, but it felt just right for us.
