confirm engagement<br />
AMERICAN COMEDIAN Peter<br />
Michael Davidson has confirmed<br />
he is engaged to Ariana Grande-<br />
Butera, who is also an American<br />
actress, saying "I feel like I won a<br />
contest."<br />
The couple started dating in<br />
May and there was speculation earlier<br />
this month they were planning<br />
to get married.<br />
Speaking on ‘The Tonight<br />
Show’ with Jimmy Fallon, Pete -<br />
best known for his role on United<br />
States comedy show SNL - confirmed<br />
they were engaged, adding,<br />
"It's lit."<br />
He said one fan even came up<br />
to him and said, "You gave me<br />
hope."<br />
It's the first time either of the<br />
pair has spoken publicly about their<br />
engagement - although Ariana appeared<br />
to confirm the news earlier<br />

this month when replying to fans<br />
on social media.<br />
On ‘The Tonight Show’, Jimmy<br />
Fallon jokingly told Pete that he<br />
"didn't have to get engaged to Ariana<br />
Grande to come on our show."<br />
Pete, who performs on sketch<br />
show Saturday Night Live, replied,<br />
"But I did though. I feel like I won<br />
a contest. So sick."<br />
When asked how he was handling<br />
it all, the comedian said it was<br />
"lit" and joked that men were walking<br />
past him and tipping their hat<br />
as a sign of respect.<br />
"Some dude came up to me and<br />
was like, 'Yo man, you gave me<br />
hope'. I didn't know I was that<br />
ugly."<br />
On Saturday, Pete shared a<br />
photo on Instagram which appeared<br />
to show Ariana wearing an<br />
engagement ring.<br />
It included the caption, "You<br />
know what you'd dream it be like?<br />
It's better than that.”<br />
The couple have both recently<br />
came out of other relationships.<br />
Ariana was dating rapper Mac<br />
Miller, while Pete was in a relationship<br />
with Cazzie David, whose dad<br />
is comedian Larry David.<br />
The singer recently spoke about<br />
her recently-ended relationship<br />
with Mac Miller, calling it "toxic".<br />
"I am not a babysitter or a<br />
mother and no woman should feel<br />
that they need to be," she said.<br />
Ariana also got a tattoo of a bee<br />
a year on from the terror attack at<br />
the Manchester Arena where <strong>22</strong><br />
people died at her concert last year.<br />
The singer says she has PTSD<br />
from the attack, and doesn't think<br />
she'll ever be able to talk about the<br />
event without crying. BBC<br />
GHANAIAN ACTOR, Psalm Adjeteyfio,<br />
popularly known as T T,<br />
has pleaded with rumour mongers<br />
to spare him.<br />
T T, who became famous following<br />
his appearance in the Taxi<br />
Driver TV series, said he is always<br />
shocked to hear about some people<br />
spreading rumours of his death on<br />
social media.<br />
According to him, it is very sad<br />
because it has happened multiple<br />
times.<br />
“I was shocked when people said<br />
I had passed away. I do not know<br />
who is spreading<br />
that falsehood.<br />
I don’t<br />
know if the<br />
person hates<br />
me. I have<br />
been off<br />
screens due<br />
to illness. I<br />
couldn’t<br />
breathe and<br />
talk well,” he<br />
told Moses<br />
Aluebase (DJ<br />
Alligator) on<br />
Storm FM’s<br />
Mid-Morning<br />
show in<br />
Sunyani.<br />
After he<br />
was diagnosed with an enlarged<br />
heart, which is now leading to<br />
swollen feet, the veteran actor disclosed<br />
that though, people are trying<br />
to help, it is not enough to cater<br />
for his medical bills.<br />
T T, who has been off the<br />
screens for some time, said he tried<br />
doing some little work that won’t<br />
take much of his time before his ailment<br />
became serious.<br />
He shot down reports that his<br />
wife left him following his sickness.<br />
“My wife left me before I fell<br />
sick, my children have always been<br />
on my side,” T T stated.<br />
