Nicole Richie and Joel Madden are believed to be engaged.
A local radio DJ announced the happy news after the Good Charlotte frontman performed with his band at the
Hot 99.5 Lil' Black Dress Party at Virginia's Clarendon Ballroom on Friday (17.08.07).
Hot 99.5 morning show host Kane came onto the stage following the acoustic show and shouted to the crowd:
"He got engaged yesterday. Congratulations, Joel!"
Joel - who is expecting his first child with Nicole - did not say anything but waved to the audience before
making a hurried exit.
Kane revealed: "I offered my personal congratulations to Joel earlier in the night. He said, 'Thank you so
much.'
"They're very excited about the baby and the wedding, but they want to keep their personal life personal."
Last week, Joel let slip his plans to pop the question to Nicole - who is four months pregnant - during an
interview on US TV show 'Live!' when host Regis Philbin questioned him about his love life.
Regis said: "I hear you're going to present Nicole with a little engagement ring or something?"
Joel, who was on stage with his band ready to perform, replied: "Well I had been hoping it would be a surprise
but I guess it's not now."

Jessica Biel's strip contract
Jessica Biel has agreed to bare her breasts and butt in her new movie.
The 25-year-old sex symbol - who plays a stripper trying to earn money to care for her terminally ill son in 'Powder Blue' - has signed a contract stating she will reveal the specific body parts after initially being reluctant to strip off.
A source told Us Weekly magazine: "Jessica signed a contract that explicitly details the bare minimum fans will see - including shots of her breasts and butt."
Jessica - who stars alongside Oscar winner Forest Whitaker in the movie - recently confessed she is worried about her dad and brother seeing her naked on screen.
She said: "I definitely worry about how my family would react. You can't help thinking about your dad or brother seeing something.
"I don't have to be fully naked for the movie. I haven't decided exactly about the nudity. It's a tough one. I'm considering it but it's a very scary thing to do.
"It definitely feels vulnerable to be naked in front of anybody, let alone a film crew.
"And it's scary because of the internet - you don't know where it's going to end up. It's a moment that could be exploited."
'The Illusionist' star - who was rated number one in Stuff magazine's 100 Sexiest Women 2007 list - is currently dating pop heartthrob Justin Timberlake.
Jordan's bath sex
Jordan's favourite place to have sex is in the bath.
The glamour model - real name Katie Price - loves getting steamy with husband Peter Andre in the tub, but the couple have to plan their romps with military precision so they aren't caught by their children.
Jordan - who has two children with Peter, new baby daughter Princess Tiaamii and two-year-old son Junior, and a son, five-year-old Harvey, from her relationship with soccer star Dwight Yorke - revealed: "We get in the bath together a lot!
"But we have to plan sex really carefully. With kids it's always hard as one of them could walk in, and then you're like, 'Arggh!' "
The busty star has also revealed that Peter's private parts are completely free of pubic hair, so he is clean for lovemaking.
She said: "Pete even shaves his a***hole. Well, doesn't shave it, but uses Veet to make it go bald. He's very clean down there, like a baby."

Halle Berry pregnant?
Halle Berry is two months pregnant, it has been claimed. The 'X-Men' star - who turned 41 this week - has wanted to become a mother for some time and is said to be delighted after discovering she is expecting model boyfriend Gabriel Aubry's baby.
A source told National Enquirer magazine: "Halle is so happy right now. She's wanted a baby for so long.
"But at the same time she's scared because she is very aware of the complications that having diabetes can cause during pregnancy. She's doing everything possible to make sure her baby is born healthy."
According to medical experts, diabetes increases the risk of miscarriage, stillbirth and birth defects, but with proper care Halle has every chance of having a healthy baby.
The Oscar-winning star said earlier this year: "Having children is my next big project. I'm planning on becoming pregnant by the end of the year - it's my age, it's only natural.
"If it can't happen naturally, Gabriel and I will adopt."
Halle has made no secret of her yearning for motherhood, and vowed to get pregnant before she turned 40 last August.
She told US chat show host Oprah Winfrey: "If there's no serious man in my life when I get to that age, whoever I'm dating at the time, I'll say, 'Hey, would you like to have a baby?' "
Halle even contemplated artificial insemination before she started dating Gabriel, who at 32 is nine years her junior.
She said last year: "It looks like the only option I have left is to head for the sperm bank! I've been so desperately unlucky in love and that has thwarted my desire for motherhood. It's so frustrating. I really yearn for a child and I can't wait much longer."
Jessica Biel's marriage vow
Jessica Biel doesn't want to marry Justin Timberlake. The 'I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry' actress - who began dating Justin in February shortly after he split from Cameron Diaz - believes marriage is just a piece of "paperwork".
Jessica told Cosmopolitan magazine: "I don't feel the need to settle down right now.
"And if I do meet somebody, I don't feel the need for the paperwork of marriage. For me, a verbal agreement is enough. I don't know if I want to get married."
The 25-year-old actress, who is rumoured to be planning to move in with Justin after his world tour finishes next month, also revealed she hates it when men try and impress her with cheesy chat-up lines.
Jessica, who once starred in hit US TV show '7th Heaven', said: "I don't get approached often. Although I did the other night and it was the worst pick-up line I've ever heard! I was at a concert and this guy came up to me and said, 'I know who you are and I know guys come up and say the worst things to you all the time'. And I'm waiting for the great line and he said, 'Do you remember that one time on '7th Heaven' when you barked like a dog? That was my favourite episode!'
"My friends looked at each other like, 'He totally blew it. He thought we were going to have this moment and he blew it!' "
Britney Spears' bed buddy
Britney Spears asked her former nanny to sleep in the same bed as her, it has been reported. The 'Toxic' singer is said to have begged the employee to stay with her and her son Sean Preston because she felt lonely.
Other former nannies have claimed Britney enjoyed stripping naked and drank alcohol in front of her children, 23-month-old Sean Preston and 11-month-old son Jayden James.
A source told Us Weekly magazine: "Before Britney had Jayden James last year, she asked a nanny to sleep in the same bed with her and Sean.
"She also drinks in front of the kids. At first, the drinks would help her loosen up and not be so angry. But she'd inevitably drink too much and be out of it, at which point the nannies would take care of the kids.
"Britney will strip down in front of staff, nannies, whoever. She'll ask, 'Do I look sexy? Do I look pretty?' She is extremely insecure. She hires people to be her friends."
The revelations emerged after Britney's ex-husband Kevin Federline began collecting evidence from former employees and serving subpoenas to her staff in his battle to win primary custody of their children.
The 25-year-old singer's former assistant, Shannon Funk, her ex-bodyguard Daimon Shippen and her cousin Alli Sims have all been ordered to testify so far.
Sienna Miller's Bean romance
Sienna Miller has fallen for her new co-star Sean Bean, it has been reported. The actress, who is said to be smitten with the handsome 'Lord of the Rings' star, recently invited him to spend a romantic evening at her west London home and even cooked Sean a special beef stew.
A source told Britain's Daily Mail newspaper: "She is completely mesmerised by Sean already. She has told friends that she can't help feeling transfixed by his green eyes and loves the fact that he is a real macho man."
Sienna, 25, and Sean, 48, are due to start filming Oscar Wilde's 'A Woman of No Importance' in September.
The 'Layer Cake' actress is said to be phoning Sean constantly and has dismissed the sizeable age gap between them.
The source added: "He is almost twice Sienna's age but she doesn't care about that. She has dated many men of many different ages, so the fact he is a bit older isn't an issue for her. She is hoping to get to know him a lot better."
Sean, who has three children, most recently dated 29-year-old actress Georgina Sutcliffe but the pair are said to have split following a heated row in Los Angeles.
Sean's first marriage to his school sweetheart Debra James ended in the 80s after he moved to London to attend prestigious acting academy RADA. He was married to actress Melanie Hill from 1990 to 1997, during which the couple had two daughters, Molly and Lorna.
He then tied the knot with his 'Sharpe' co-star Abigail Cruttenden and had a daughter Evie Natasha. The pair divorced in 2000.
Sienna has previously dated Jude Law and Daniel Craig, and was most recently romantically linked to rapper P. Diddy.
Her publicist has denied Sienna is dating Sean, insisting the reports are "categorically untrue".
Paris Hilton's New Year bonanza
Paris Hilton and sister Nicky want to make $500,000 for just turning up to a New Year's Eve party. 'The Simple Life' star - who recently served 23 days in jail - was paid $100,000 to host a New Year's Eve party last year, and this year is hoping to make five times as much.
A source told the New York Post newspaper: "Paris and Nicky are shopping their New Year's Eve partying ways to Vegas at the price of around $500,000 - only they have the guts to ask for that amount.
"Paris will 'party' at a few spots and Nicky will bless the lucky host with a fashion show of her wares and model herself."
Pure nightclub - who last year paid Britney to host their New Year celebrations and were due to host Lindsay Lohan's 21st birthday party before she checked into rehab - are said to be interested.
The source added: "Pure may be coming all the way up to the asking price, although the Hiltons are so desperate now, they should be paying the clubs for good PR, not the other way around."
The sisters' representative, Mike Sitrick, said: "That is not accurate."
Meanwhile, Paris has sold her Hollywood home for $4.25million, after just 10 days on the market.
The 26-year-old star - who is currently living in a rented beach house in Malibu - bought the property in 2004 for $2.9 million.
The Spanish-style 1920s mansion has three bathrooms and four bedrooms, one of which has been converted into a huge closet.
It also has a pool, separate guest quarters and office.
When it went on the market, Paris said: "It's hard to move, but there are too many people who know where I live. There's 20 tour buses coming a day. Random guys from all around the world just show up and leave things. I'm scared."
Neighbour Cameron Diaz said: "Paris made her bad choices, she's going to have to deal with it, that's her journey.
"She is famous all over the world. There were 10 helicopters above her house, which I live not too far from. I was like, 'Could you please keep it down?' We all suffer when Paris suffers."
Nicole Richie's marriage dash
Nicole Richie is desperate to marry as soon as possible.'The Simple Life' star, who is four months pregnant, is said to be determined to wed boyfriend Good Charlotte Joel Madden before her baby bump shows.
A source told E! Online: "Nicole does not want wedding pictures of her in a big old white dress, with a big old pregnant belly."
The 25-year-old star wants a lavish wedding, but is struggling to set a date to exchange vows before September 28 - when she must begin her four-day prison sentence for DUI (driving under the influence).
The source added: "Nicole has a guest list of about 200 so far. But pulling off a wedding that size, this quickly isn't easy. She really wants to get married, spend a few days with her new husband and then check in to jail."
Nicole's father, singer Lionel Richie, has offered his Bel-Air mansion for the wedding ceremony and Nicole is said to love the idea of getting married at home.
It was revealed earlier this month the couple are having a baby boy and Nicole has already started decorating the nursery and choosing names.
Spears goes topless at Allure photo shoot - See these pictures !!!
Britney Spears went topless for no apparent reason during a photo shoot with Allure magazine, and then failed to turn up for the interview.
The 'Toxic' singer is still due to appear on the cover of September's edition of the magazine, but her picture will accompany a story on the nature of celebrity rather than a personal interview.
The magazine's editor told The Sun: "Britney showed up for Allure's cover shoot on time and ready to work. She was entirely unselfconscious."
Talking about the shoot, they added: "She took off her wig and then stripped down to her waist, for no apparent reason, before sitting for hair and makeup.
"She was agreeable and co-operative but that was the last we saw of her...she missed four appointments for an interview."

Kate Hudson's love distraction
Kate Hudson is allegedly so smitten with new love Dax Shepard she has little time to see her son. The 'Skeleton Key' star's ex-husband, Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson, is said to be delighted about her new romance because it means he can see more of their three-year-old son Ryder.
A source told the New York Post newspaper: "Dax is basically living at her house right now. The rest of her family is a little annoyed.
"Chris is thrilled because now he can have Ryder whenever he wants. Kate gets a little more distracted when new men come into her life."
Kate's representative, Brad Cafarelli, has denied the actress is neglecting Ryder because of her new romance, saying: "None of what you're speculating here is accurate."
Kate split from Chris a year ago, shortly after starring with Owen Wilson in romantic comedy 'You, Me and Dupree'.
While both Kate and Owen denied they were having an affair while filming the movie, they began dating and went public with their relationship in April.
They split in June amid rumours Kate was unhappy with Owen's lack of commitment.
The 'How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days' actress began dating Dax, 32, last month.
Paris Hilton's Britney snub
Britney Spears desperately wanted to rekindle her friendship with Paris Hilton but the hotel heiress snubbed her, it has been reported.
The 'Toxic' singer and 'The Simple Life' star became best friends for a few weeks after Britney filed for divorce from Kevin Federline and were seen partying in Hollywood almost every night.
While Britney would love to go out with Paris again, the socialite won't return her calls.
A source told Life and Style Weekly magazine: "Britney is dying to hang out with Paris. She's trying to get her cell phone number and passing messages to her through other friends.
"Paris moved on a long time ago when it comes to Britney. She feels sorry for her, but that is as far as it goes!"
Since Britney, 25, split from Kevin she has worried her ex-husband with her erratic behaviour, after shaving her head and entering rehab.
Kevin is seeking sole physical custody of his two sons with Britney, 22-month-old Sean Preston and 10-month -old Jayden James.
Meanwhile, 26-year-old Paris has served 23 days behind bars for driving with a suspended licence and has vowed to become a better person.
Jessica Biel's Scrabble date
Jessica Biel has swapped bad boys for Scrabble. The 'I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry' star - who is currently dating sexy singer Justin Timberlake - is
tired of "mothering" boys who can't be saved and prefers nights in with her girlfriends playing games and drinking wine.
Jessica, 25, told Glamour magazine: "I have done the mothering thing of trying to save a bad boy, but I don't think it works so I stopped.
"When you're in a relationship you always have a moment when you disappear for a while but my friends are great.
"I wouldn't let them get away with it. I will not let some man take my girlfriends away!
"We do a lot of dinner parties and we play board games. I love Scrabble and I also enjoy Apples to Apples,
which is a mindless game where you learn weird things about people - it's really silly and goes well with a glass of wine."
The Hollywood sex symbol also revealed she no longer feels the need to go out partying like her
contemporaries such as Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan, because she got it all out of her system at an early age.
Jessica revealed: "I'm such a homebody it's embarrassing. But I feel I went through that phase when I was in my late teens and sneaking into places like everybody does.
"But when I turned 21 I just got over it. Got over the crowds, the expensive drinks and all the people."
Megan Fox's haunted England
Megan Fox thought England would be full of haunted castles. The 21-year-old actress is currently shooting the movie adaptation of Toby Young's book 'How To Lose Friends And Alienate People', alongside Simon Pegg and Kirsten Dunst, in London, but admits she had a peculiar idea of what it would be like.
Megan, 21, said: "I had never been to England. I imagined it as having lots of stone cathedrals and cobble-stoned streets, and being cold and foggy.
"And full of mysterious, cool-looking people. I always see this show on our travel channel 'Most Haunted' and I always thought England would be just like that."
The 'Transformers' star has also revealed she is a huge fan of co-star Simon.
Megan - who is engaged to former 'Beverly Hills 90210' star Brian Austin Green - said: "I'm obsessed with 'Shaun of the Dead'. I'm so excited to work with Simon, I've been talking about it forever. 'Hot Fuzz' is genius as well. He's one of my favourite guys."
Avril Lavigne's naked run
Avril Lavigne runs around naked when she is drunk. The Canadian singer, who is married to Sum 41 rocker Deryck Whibley, admits she enjoys stripping off after a few drinks.
She said: "I've been known to run around naked when I'm drunk. "One time I was drinking whiskey, and I was so loud, someone called the police. "I have a side to me that's a bit delinquent and I get myself in trouble. I like to drink and party and speak my mind. But when it comes down to it, I'm a good person and I wouldn't deliberately hurt anyone."
Although she may flash her flesh when intoxicated, the 22-year-old rocker isn't prepared to use her sexuality to sell records.
The 'Girlfriend' singer told Sunday magazine: "Image is a personal choice. I'd rather be seen as me than for not wearing anything. When I first started out in music I was 17. I didn't want to wear the clothes that everyone wanted me to wear. I wore my tank top and Doc Martens boots and I'm glad I did because I was so different from everyone else."
