OMG I'm cringing and rolling my eyes, half smiling. The darlings of indie, engaged. Turns out over the Christmas break this one year old couple started down the road to tax breaks and once a month sex. You might know it as marriage. I used to be in LOVE with Ben Gibbard (32), I wanted to be the subject of one of his songs, a heartbreak one or a longing one, I didn't care. And if you read a couple blog posts down, you know I think Zooey Deschanel (28) is a weirdo lame-o with a good voice, cute face and the inability to act in any movie she's ever been in. This news break my heart....maybe it's a publicity stunt to save the waning indie scene and culture.....
Here's what Pitchfork had to say.... (Also, the picture Pitchfork used of Ben Gibbard for their article was taken by SD Local photog Natalie Kardos!!)
Cue the sound of thousands of blogger hearts breaking. USmagazine.com (via Rawkblog) reports that Death Cab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard and actress/She & Him singer Zooey Deschanel are engaged. Isn't that just the most indie-in-2008 thing ever? It almost seems a little too perfect, as if we made it up in some kind of fantasy indie rock love connection.
Emails to Death Cab's publicist and She & Him's publicist haven't been answered yet, but various other sources, including MTV.com and People.com, claim to have confirmed the engagement. Sorry, lonely dudes.
