Looks like the Velvet Teddy Bear has found a long-term snuggle bunny.

American Idol season-two champ Ruben Studdard obtained a marriage license in his hometown of Birmingham, Ala., Monday morning.

According to the Birmingham News, the 29-year-old "Flying Without Wings" singer and his 30-year-old fiancée, Surata Zuri McCants, obtained the paperwork in Shelby County just before noon.

While Studdard has not publicly confirmed a date for the nuptials, the document is good for 30 days.

Here's hoping his proposal wasn't too pitchy.
