— Psalm Adjeteyfio<br />

Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson<br />

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 />

•Ariana Grande-Butera with boyfriend Peter Michael Davidson<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 />
