  "account": "On October 2nd, Los Angeles Lakers forward Ziaire Williams surprised his longtime girlfriend, model Paris Timan, with an engagement proposal during a Bruno Mars concert at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. The singer performed his iconic 2010 song \"Marry You\" during the second of his five shows at the stadium as part of his The Romantic Tour. Williams got down on one knee, presented Timan with a ring, and the couple exchanged vows in front of confetti and a cheering crowd. The emotional proposal was featured on the stadium's massive video screens, and later shared on SoFi Stadium's Instagram with a touching message and emojis. The Romantic, Bruno Mars' fourth solo album, debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, his first solo release since 2016, and features \"Marry You\" as one of its most recognizable romantic songs.",
