Katy Perry and Russell Brand are Engaged

The fine people at People have discovered that Katy Perry and boyfriend Russell Brand are now engaged.

Rumors to that effect began circulating over the holidays, and became especially loud Tuesday night. Perry, 25, Tweeted around 1 a.m. New York time from Thailand on Wednesday an oblique reference to an Alanis Morrisette song: "So when do I start walking the streets naked singing that Alanis song?"

Morrisette's lines in "Thank You" include: "How about me just enjoying the moment for once" and "Thank you India" (where the couple vacationed recently).

For his part, Brand, 34, was quoted in Wednesday's editions of Britain's Sun tabloid as texting, "It's true. Much love."

I should probably read more celebrity twitters and start decoding the messages myself. Then I can finally get some exclusives, most of which will probably be wrong. Here, I'll try a random one...let's try Kim Kardashian. Whatever her latest tweet is, I'll figure out what it really means:

My fragrance is now listed on @sephora's website & comes in 4 dif sizes! http://bit.ly/4rws7R So excited! Can't wait for the launch in Feb!

Okay, easy enough. Her fragrance is clearly code for her virginity, and sephora is probably greek for craigslist. It seems Kim Kardashian is selling her virginity on craigslist in February. Tell everyone.
