Canadian pop star Carly Rae Jepsen took to Instagram on Monday to reveal to her 2.6 million followers the non-traditional ring marking her engagement to Grammy Award-winning music producer Cole M.G.N.
The ring spotlights what appears to be a smoky-grey-blue gem prong set on a simple yellow gold band. Jewelry-industry pundits believe the stone may be a sapphire or spinel.
The shape? That's also hard to tell from the photo, but it's likely a cushion or Asscher cut.
Jepsen, 38, was straight to the point in her Monday post on Instagram. A carousel of nine romantic photos were simply captioned, "Very engaged over here." She punctuated the four-word phrase with an engagement ring and red heart emoji.
The four-time Billboard Music Award winner developed a relationship with Cole M.G.N. (full name Cole Marsden Greif-Neil) while working on her most recent album, 2023's The Loveliest Time.
Ironically, on the track, “So Right,” which was co-written and produced by M.G.N., Jepsen's new fiancé voices the role of a conflicted former lover in a flirty exchange that begins the song.
“Do you really think this is a good idea?” M.G.N. asks.
“I mean no, probably not, but yeah,” answers Jepsen.
“Alright, see you at my place,” he says.
“K, see you soon," she responds.
Jepsen told People, "I would've been too shy beforehand to be like, 'Do you want to do a skit at the beginning?' But now that we're so close, it was just really fun and playful to be like, 'Let's have this very '80s drama skit at the beginning where you ask me if I should come over and I say no, but then I come anyways.'"
While “So Right” was their first collaborative effort, it's not likely to be their last.
“We’ll go traveling somewhere, and we’ll bring a little acoustic guitar,” she told People. “I think you’ll see a lot more of our collaboration together for future projects, but this is our first little baby out in the world. We’re both so excited.”
Back in 2012, Jepsen earned worldwide acclaim with her blockbuster hit, "Call Me Maybe" (20 million copies sold).
The American-born M.G.N. has won six Grammy Awards for his work with Beck.
The couple has yet to announce a wedding date.
