Millie Bobby Brown, during an appearance on “The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon,” revealed how her fiancée, Jake Bongiovi, asked her to marry him “many meters down” in the ocean.

Brown revealed to Fallon that her and her fiancée have bonded over diving.

“We love diving. We got our diving licenses together,” Brown told Fallon.

“One day, we were on vacation and he (Bongiovi) was like, Mill, you got to be awake at 8 a.m. We are going on a dive,” Brown continued.

The 20-year-old actress said the two went out to the spot and dived “many meters down,” and that’s when Bongiovi gave her a shell with a ring inside.

Unable to speak with their oxygen masks on, Bongiovi put the ring on Brown’s finger. She then showed off the ring, causing it to fall off and “plummet” toward the ocean floor.

“It was like a cinematic movie. Jake threw himself into the water,” Brown said. “Like, so deep the diving instructor was like ‘you can’t do that, your ears, literally your brain will explode.’ He throws himself, and does a cinematic grab, opens, and he saved the ring.”

“I truly feel it is a reflection of who he is and I feel like we’re always going to have each other’s back and if anyone drops the ball we got it,” Brown added.

But the story does not end there. After Bongiovi’s heroics, the two swam back to the top of the ocean, where Bongiovi explained that the ring he brought to the deep sea proposal was one he had to buy because Brown’s mom would not let him bring her ring down into the ocean.

“My mom was like ‘Absolutely not Jake, you’re not taking my ring down there. You’ll drop it,'” Brown said. “She was right.”

Bongiovi gave Brown her mom’s ring, which is the one she wears now, when they got back on the boat.

“He was like, ‘This is your mom’s ring and I got it from your parents.’ It was very magical,” Brown said.

Earlier this year, Bongiovi wished Brown a happy birthday on Instagram, saying the two had a “big year ahead.”

The son of legendary rocker Bon Jovi and Brown announced their engagement in April 2023, and the two are believed to have begun dating back in 2021.

Brown will star in the upcoming Netflix film “Damsel,” which is set to be released on the streaming service March 8.

Bruce Springsteen Reveals Famous Lyric People Have Been Singing Wrong — Including Himself https://www.nbcnewyork.com/entertainment/entertainment-news/bruce-springsteen-reveals-famous-lyric-people-have-been-singing-wrong-including-himself/3958006/ 3958006 post https://media.nbcnewyork.com/2022/11/NUP_199843_01175.jpg?quality=85&strip=all&fit=300,169 Bruce Springsteen just settled a debate about his iconic song “Thunder Road” — and learned something new about his own music in the process.

The legendary artist appeared Nov. 14 “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” to clarify an old Twitter debate about a line in his classic 1975 song “Thunder Road.” Some people believe the lyric in question is “a screen door slams / Mary’s dress sways,” while others believe it’s “a screen door slams / Mary’s dress waves.”

“I knew you were going to ask this question, so I came prepared,” he said, while pulling out a copy of the “Thunder Road” album.

“This record is almost 50 years old. Fifty years ago, I was a sociopath,” he added, while putting on a pair of eyeglasses.

“I was insane about every single detail that had anything to do with music, my album, my album cover, my lyrics. I went over everything with a fine-tooth comb so everything would be perfect and completely accurate. The lyrics to ‘Thunder Road’ are in this album. The correct lyrics.”

Springsteen, whose new album, “Only the Strong Survive,” came out last week, then opened the album to look at the lyrics to note his own error.

“‘The screen door slams.’” I’ve been singing ‘sways’ for almost 50 years. ‘The screen door slams / Mary’s dress waves,’” he said, reading from the album.

“This is wrong,” he said, while touching the album, then starts to laugh.

“I’m more confused than I was before I asked,” Fallon said.

“This is wrong. I’m telling you this is wrong,” Springsteen joked. “How did that happen?”

“Thunder Road” is only one song in Springsteen’s legendary catalog.

Fallon mentioned Alfonso Ribeiro said his signature Carlton dance from “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” was inspired by Springsteen and Courteney Cox dancing in the famous “Dancing in the Dark” video. He showed a split screen with Springsteen dancing in the video, alongside Ribeiro dancing from an episode of “Fresh Prince.”

“My dancing is pretty embarrassing. And my kids kill me on that. ‘Dad, you look ridiculous,’” Springsteen said.

“So, it’s my New Jersey shuffle, I guess,” he continued. “But that was all I knew. But it definitely does look like it had some influence on the Carlton dance.

Springsteen will tour next yearas will Taylor Swift, and there’s some chatter they may appear at each other’s shows. So, is there any truth to that?

“Well, I will be because my daughter is going to make sure,” Springsteen said, drawing laughter. “I will be at the Taylor Swift show. So, I know that. And she’s welcome on E Street anytime.”
