Extra, extra: Mario Lopez is engaged.
After being a couple since 2008 and having a daughter together, "Extra" host Mario Lopez and actress-dancer Courtney Mazza became engaged over New Year's weekend while vacationing in Ixtapa, Mexico.
"We took a walk alone as the sun was setting," Lopez, 38, told Us Weekly Wednesday. "I told Courtney that I wanted the mother of my children to have their last name. She was silent at first from shock, then she leaped for joy and did a little jeté!"
Added Mazza, 30, "Besides our daughter's birth, this was the best moment of my life!"
She and Lopez met when they appeared in "A Chorus Line" on Broadway.
