Russell Brand has confirmed to The Sun UK newspaper that he and Katy Perry are engaged. I ignored the original story, and am tempted to ignore this confirmation too, to be honest. For the most part, I’m staying away from all the free PR foreplay. And unless they or a rep confirms, I’m not interested.
The reason for the sour grapes about this announcement is that The Sun state Brand confirms engagement rumours by texting Sun Bizarre editor Gordon Smart. Which to me is one step away from saying he Twitter DMd his confirmation. What is the crapsticks am I supposed to do with that? Well, in any case the news is being reported as fact today. So we can assume the pair who met in September at the VMAs 2009, and were promptly joined at the hip, will soon be walking down the aisle and making thin, raven-haired babies together.
