Would You Do...Tara Reid With This Rock?

More from The Awful Truth

Tara Reid was lunching with her girlfriends in Miami the other day and just happened to use her hands, all animatedly and such. And there appeared to be a pink dog turd surrounded by rhinestones on her ring finger.

Perhaps the first question should be: Would you say "yes" to anyone who proposed with that gaudy-awful thing?

Although we're skeptical that it is indeed an engagement ring, we put in calls to Tara's reps—but have yet to hear back. Supposedly some posh lunchers behind Reid overheard the once-doable blonde talking about her supposed engagement to billionaire boyfriend Michael Axtmann.

We're chalking this one up to Tara dying for a wee bit of publicity. And looks like we're giving it to her, so the joke's on us.

What do you think: Do diamonds flatter Miss (or soon to be Mrs.) Reid?

It looks like Jackles may be over.

The Supernatural costars—and super besties—Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki may need to redefine their relaysh now that Jensen is taking the next step with longtime girlfriend Danneel Harris.

Jensen's rep confirms to E! News that the two are indeed engaged.

So what does that mean for our favorite TV BFFs? Can they still find time to hang all the time, or will the missus be in the way?

Jennifer Esposito's Reality-TV Wedding?

We'll call this one love-all.

We may not have even cared known that they were dating, but Rescue Me's Jennifer Esposito is going to tie the knot with tennis star turned reality-show love-seeker Mark Philippoussis.

"They are happily engaged and enjoying their time together," a rep for Philippoussis told People.

There's no word on a wedding date just yet, but it'll mark the second trip down the aisle for Esposito—who, for the briefest of flashes, enjoyed life as Mrs. Bradley Cooper—and the first for the consonant-favoring Aussie sports star.

The duo got engaged over the summer, which, incidentally, seems to be the most productive season for Philippoussis' love life. Just two years ago, he starred in NBC's reality smarmfest Age of Love, in which he was tasked with choosing a ladylove from one of two groups: the kittens or the cougars. He chose the former.

But seeing as how the 32-year-old athlete opted this time around for a (slightly) older woman in 36-year-old star of Rescue Me and Crash, he's clearly learned from his mistakes.

Whoopi Spills Beans on Elisabeth Moss and Fred Armisen's Quiet, Quirky Wedding

Peggy Sue Olson got married!

After a 10-month engagement, Mad Men star Elisabeth Moss and Saturday Night Live funnyman Fred Armisen tied the knot in New York yesterday—the one-year anniversary of Jon Hamm's SNL hosting stint, a date that also happened to be the very first meeting of the newlyweds.

Moss' rep confirmed to E! News that the duo swapped vows at The Foundry in Long Island City yesterday. Moss modeled a Claire Pettibone gown in a ceremony attended by family and friends.

No word on whether those friends included Don Draper himself or any SNL cohorts; considering the couple's well-guarded privacy, we may never know.

Which means we'll just have to assume Armisen promised his Scientologist bride a pan, a comb and perhaps a cat.

In fact, we can thank a rather surprising source that their nuptials went public...

Backtracking Bachelor Star Jason (Really, Truly) Engaged to Molly

Um, second time's a charm?

Flip-flopping Bachelor star Jason Mesnick—whose flaky ways single-handedly launched Melissa Rycroft's career and generated new interest in the ABC franchise—has finally, formally popped the question to his second-banana soul mate, Molly Malaney, Mesnick's rep confirms to E! News.

It was only a year ago that Mesnick opted to spend the rest of his life camera time with Rycroft, thus denying Malaney his final rose. But he quickly and publicly dumped the Dancing queen for the castoff. Mesnick attempted to make amends by proposing in New Zealand, the same place where he initially gave her the boot.

All's well that ends well.

And while the choice of proposal spot may not exactly bring back the most romantic memories for the couple, well, you don't argue with free airfare, folks!

The duo was flown to the idyllic nation as part of a promotion for Tourism NZ, arriving on an Air New Zealand special matchmaking singles' flight and being put up in Auckland and Queenstown to appear in further promotions before heading back home.

You can't put a price on true love. Especially when that price is comped.

Will Mark Ballas bring his real-life romance to the dance floor?

The Dancing With the Stars pro hoofer's girlfriend, singer Joanna Pacitti, tells us she'd love to compete on ABC's hit cha-cha competition show.

"I would love to do it," Pacitti, 25, told us at this weekend's Project Angel Food benefit in L.A. "I love watching him. It brings the biggest smile to my face, so I can't imagine how happy I'd be dancing with him."

The two-time disco-ball-trophy-winning Ballas, 23, is in favor of the idea, too...

Real Housewife Bethenny Frankel Ready to Be a Real Wife

Bethenny Frankel's big month just got a whole lot better.

Everyone's favorite Real Housewife (and E! Online celeb blogger) is tying the knot, and in typical Bethenny fashion, she's telling it like it is.

"He liked it so much he put a ring on it!" the entrepreneur extraordinaire gushes to E! News of her new fiancé, Jason Hoppy.

After a congratulatory tweet from our own Marc Malkin, Frankel gratefully replied: "thanks. I'm about to go on in front of hundreds of peeps at southern women's show in jacksonville.I'm going to announce it.yippee."

The couple became engaged on Oct. 8, says People, after Hoppy asked the Skinny Girl to marry him in her rose petal and candle-strewn Upper East Side apartment.

And while we're not positive this has anything to do with Hoppy's decision to propose, Bethenny told us in an Oct. 6 interview that the two were not yet engaged, but "the other housewives have all met him and thumbs-up. You can't dislike him; it's impossible."

Either way, congrats are in order to the happy couple!

Shue Drops on Melrose Engagement

They're no Khloé and Lamar, but they'll have to do.

Soapy '90s heartthrob Andrew Shue is once again off the market after getting engaged last week to Today show weekend coanchor Amy Robach, a show rep confirmed to E! News.

Hey, Melrose Place is back in the spotlight—why shouldn't its former stars be, too?

According to People, the small-screen duo, both of whom are recently divorced (he from floral designer Jennifer Hageney, she from actor Tim McIntosh) first coupled up in the spring, when they were set up by mutual friends.

For those who have long since opted out of their Andrew Shue fan-club newsletter, the 42-year-old thesp has spent his post-Melrose days working on his nonprofit foundation Do Something, while the 36-year-old Robach, in addition to her Today chores and mother-of-two duties, is also a correspondent for NBC Nightly News.

Looks like all those years spent toiling on Today Throws a Dream Wedding will finally pay off.

Khloé Kardashian Reveals Giant Engagement Ring

We've been waiting forever for Khloé Kardashian to unveil her ginormous engagement ring.

Today she finally decided to give us a peek of the 9-carat diamond (wowsers!) while out on a Starbucks run.

It's about time, too. We were starting to get antsy overanalyzing every ring she wears, even if it's on the wrong finger.

This covers most of the major details we need to know about Sunday's wedding. We've got Lamar Odom's bachelor party out of the way, the impostor invite debunked, the wedding registry, the location and now the ring. All that's left is the dress!

Can't wait.

Khloé Kardashian was sporting a major ring last night. But it was not her 9-carat engagement ring

The sparkler was way more miniature disco ball rather than something you'd give your wife-to-be.

But asking Ms. Kardashian or Lamar Odom about the bauble—or anything else for that matter—was off limits when the lovebirds hit a private Beverly Hills estate for the Stop Puppy Mills event...
