Apparently, it's a match made in indie rock heaven: Zooey Deschanel, actress (Elf, Yes Man) and singer of She & Him, is engaged to Ben Gibbard, lead singer of the indie rock band from Bellingham, Death Cab for Cutie. According to a "source close to the couple," says Us Weekly, Deschanel, 28, and Gibbard, 32, are "so thrilled. ... Zooey was swept off her feet, and Ben is so excited." (Via MTV.com)
He's such a lucky dude. Zooey is a lovely woman and a very talented actress. I'm happy for them.
