Nick Cannon gets engaged to Victoria’s Secrets model

May 9th, 2007

Nick Cannon is to marry his girlfriend Selita Ebanks - it’s only been four months since they started dating.

The rapper/actor popped the question to the Victoria’s Secret model on Monday, with the help of a large video screen in New York’s Times Square, which read, “Selita, will you marry me?”

Cannon and his new fiance were chauffeured to the “jumbotron”, where he got down on one knee and presented the beauty with a 12-carat diamond ring.

Earlier this year, the couple were forced to deny they had secretly wed following a three-week courtship, after rumors in the press, that they had tied the knot in Las Vegas on the weekend of 18 February.
