You can watch the entire segment where McCarthy announces the engagement (after Stephen Colbert tries to steal her thunder or something). The video also distills the lifecycle of a celebrity engagement into one 2-and-a-half minute segment:
1) Announce engagement by flashing huge ring on one’s TV show.
2) Run around like a chicken with its head cut off. Luckily, Jenny still has her head so that she can scream her excitement.
3) Have your co-hosts test out whether that ring is as big as their head.
4) Brag that it’s a yellow saphire. Not a yellow diamond? Just kidding.
5) Recount sweet proposal that includes making your adorable child do all the work.
6) Allow your TV show to retweet every congratulations you’ve gotten:
In related news, McCarthy has also taken to the Chicago Sun Times to declare that she isn’t actually anti-vaccine. I’m excited to see what this and her impending marriage do for her Q score.
