Yes Man actress Zooey Deschanel, 28, and musician Hunter Burgan are engaged! According to a source, Zooey said yes over the weekend of December 20. The couple has been together for nearly a year and a friend of the stars confides, “She is so excited.”

Speaking of Zooey, out of sheer boredom last week I re-watched Failure to Launch on TNT.  I’d seen it in the theater, and I thought it sucked at that point.  But when you’re bored and have nothing better to do, it’s actually not that bad of a movie.  Sarah Jessica Parker is insanely annoying in FTL, but I thought Zooey did a really good job!  She was cute in that movie.

UPDATE: Wrong musician!

Zooey Deschanel is engaged to Ben Gibbard, the front man for Death Cab for Cutie, a source close to the couple tells Usmagazine.com.

Rumors that the Yes Man actress, 28, was getting married spread after In Touch falsely reported she was engaged to a different musician: Hunter Burgan, a bass guitarist for AFI.

Deschanel and Gibbard, 32, are “so thrilled,” the source tells Us. “Zooey was swept off her feet, and Ben is so excited.”
