Luisana Loreley Lopilato de la Torre and Michael Bublé
VANCOUVER — Vancouver superstar Michael Buble has recently announced his engagement to Argentinian actress girlfriend Luisana Loreley Lopilato de la Torre.
The happy couple has revealed to People magazine that they have been engaged since November.
November was a killer month for the Canuck crooner — not only did he pop the question, but his album was riding high on the Billboard charts.
“Michael proposed to his girlfriend, Luisana, in November, in front of her family in Argentina,” Buble’s rep told People. “They’re ecstatic. They’re adorable, in love and laugh all day long.”
The always romantic crooner stayed true to his Canadian roots and teamed up with Vancouver jeweller Minichiello to create a custom made engagement ring. A friend of Buble’s tells People, “He designed the setting himself. He’s very proud to be engaged to her.”
The happy couple met in Buenos Aires in November 2008. “They met at a party the record company threw for him after his show in Buenos Aires,” says the friend. “The head of the label wanted to introduce Michael to Argentina’s most famous actress. When he met her, he said it was love at first sight.”
No wedding date has been set for Bublé and Lopilato.
Bublé was previously engaged to actress-singer Debbie Timuss in 2005. He also dated actress Emily Blunt for more than two years, but the couple split in 2008.
Minka Kelly about to become Mrs. Derek Jeter?

Women of New York, start weeping.
Derek Jeter and Minka Kelly
After months of speculation that the Yankees’ hunk and his sexy steady Minka Kelly are headed to the altar, The Post has learned that the super couple may have settled on a wedding date — Nov. 5.
And while it may bring little solace to Jeter’s legion of female admirers, fretful Yankees fans will be glad to note the date is at least two days after the World Series ends.
After getting a tip about the upcoming nuptials, The Post confirmed the date by spotting a curious entry in the official calendar at the ritzy reception palace Oheka Castle in Huntington, LI, for the first Friday in November that read simply “JETER wedding.”
Page Six broke the story of their secret engagement in August. And in November, The Post also ran photos of Jeter and Kelly frolicking in the water off St. Barts — and looking very much in love.
The sumptuous Long Island site is certainly suitable for the superstar shortstop. The opulent Oheka features a French-style chateau hotel and spa, with an exquisite main ballroom and formal gardens with eight reflecting pools and three fountains.
The castle — the second-largest private residence in the United States — has hosted lavish parties for royalty, Hollywood stars and heads of state for nearly a century. Teen idol Kevin Jonas was married there last month.
Oheka, known for fiercely protecting the privacy of its guests, would not comment.
But a Post reporter, posing as a bride-to-be seeking to book a wedding that weekend, was shown a scheduling calendar printout as sales manager Rick Bellando explained that the castle hosts just one wedding per day — and the entire weekend in question was already booked.
A quick peek at the calendar revealed Jeter’s name in big bold letters.
When our spy asked if couples were ever open to switching dates for money, Bellando said most were so wealthy, money was not an issue.
“I guess if it were Derek Jeter getting married, he really wouldn’t care about my money,” our reporter suggested, pointing to the entry.
Bellando chuckled, but quickly tried to dismiss speculation.
“Oh, that’s not Derek Jeter. We wouldn’t use his real name if it were. When the Jonas brother got married here last month, we used a different name.”
Marilyn Manson engaged to Evan Rachel Wood

Evan Rachel Wood and Marilyn Manson
From People.com
Marilyn Manson and Evan Rachel Wood are engaged, a source confirms to PEOPLE.
The shock-rocker reportedly proposed to the True Blood actress while he was performing on stage in Paris on Monday, according to reports. Rumors have been swirling for days about the famously on-again, off-again couple’s engagement.
Reps for both Manson and Wood have remained mum on the subject.
Manson, 41, began dating Wood, 22, in 2006 but the couple broke up in 2008. They briefly reconciled, then split again before getting back together.
Last year, Manson revealed that he was so devastated over his breakup with Wood that he obsessed about the actress and called her incessantly. After they worked things out, Manson was quoted by the Herald Sun as saying that Wood has helped him be a better person.
“Me being me at my best is what I need to be,” he said at the time. “That really paid off because I’m back with Evan.”
Wood, for her part, described Mason to Elle magazine in 2007 as a “lovely, really human and just amazing. It may surprise you just how healthy and loving our relationship is.”
Manson was previously married to burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese.
