"The Hot Chick From X-Men" Is Engaged to "the Fat Kid From Stand By Me"

Hey, guys, look! It's the future, in which I've mercifully outgrown my awkward chubster phase, and am tall and considered by some to be at least foxy, and I'm engaged to the hottest babe on the planet. No, seriously. Guys! Guys! Hm. Hey, can I have the rest of your pie?

Rebecca Romijn, whose screen credits include the "X-Men" films, is engaged to actor Jerry O'Connell. The couple became engaged over the weekend in New York after dating for a year, Us Weekly magazine reported Tuesday. O'Connell's publicist, Joy Fehily, confirmed those details to The Associated Press.

"We couldn't be happier and are looking forward to the next chapter of our lives," the couple said in a joint statement.

Way to go, Vern-o! That'll burn those jerks Ace and Eyeball pretty good, all right! Gosh.
