What would Kat Von D and Deadmau5 do without Twitter?  About a month ago, they broke up on Twitter, then a few days later they got back together on Twitter.  This weekend, they got engaged on Twitter.    Deadmau5 (real name Joel Zimmerman) posted this romantic tweet:

I can’t wait for Christmas so…. Katherine Von Drachenberg, will you marry me?

Accompanying the post was this photo of the engagement ring the electronic music producer has designed for his bride to be:

The ring features a large center diamond flanked by two skulls.  The text reads:

“Changing the diamond to a black diamond FYI.  Sorry for the jpg…theyll finish the actual ring soon I hope.  I love you ”

Kat’s initial response was simple:  “!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”  Then she posted:

Mi corazon!!! Thank you all for the lovely congratulations! Please excuse me while I go squeeze the hell out of my fiancé! ❤

Which sounds like they were in the vicinity of each other, no?  Which begs the question:  why did Deadmau5 propose via Twitter?

Kat was married to tattoo artist Oliver Peck from 2003-2007.  She dated Mötley Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx for a couple of years, and then hooked up with – and got engaged to – bad boy Jesse James, who reportedly cheated on her with 19 different women.  They too had an on-again, off-again relationship, the only difference being that their indecisiveness was broadcast on Facebook instead of Twitter.   Deadmau5 was previously linked with Playboy Playmate Lindsey Evans.

We’ll have to wait and see whether this engagement sticks.   Congratulations for now, I guess.
