The glorious Beth Ditto has announced her engagement to her girlfriend Kristen Ogata, whom she describes as “my best friend since I was eighteen.” She revealed the news while promoting Gossip’s new album A Joyful Noise and couldn’t be happier. “I’m getting married next year to my partner Kristen in June,” she told The Observer yesterday. “I’m doing it in Hawaii because my girlfriend is from there.” (via Music Fix)
