"Paul McDonald didn&amp;apos;t nab the American Idol crown, but he&amp;apos;s definitely having a good year. After less than two months of dating, he and Twilight actress Nikki Reed are engaged, a source confirms to Us Weekly. (E! News was first to break the news of the engagement Sunday night.)\r\nReed, 23, flashed what appeared to be an engagement ring at Sunday&amp;apos;s MTV Movie Awards, and gushed to E! of McDonald, 26: &amp;quot;He&amp;apos;s the one. He&amp;apos;s the one.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nMcDonald told Us about his brand-new romance with the star in mid-April, immediately following his elimination from Idol.\r\n&amp;quot;[Nikki&amp;apos;s] supercool,&amp;quot; the singer said. &amp;quot;She&amp;apos;s been real supportive of this whole thing. She&amp;apos;s actually pumped up now because she likes my original material way better than all the stuff I do on the show.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nHe admitted that their instant connection was &amp;quot;weird,&amp;quot; particularly since he&amp;apos;s not a Twi-hard at all.\r\n&amp;quot;I haven&amp;apos;t ever actually watched any of her movies. I don&amp;apos;t know too much of her career at all, but the person she is is super cool.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nAnd, just two weeks ago, Us Weekly also broke news that the twosome were already living together in Reed&amp;apos;s L.A. home; Reed (who briefly dated Twilight costar Rob Pattinson) has been trying to help her man land a record deal.\r\n\r\nWhy the rush to the altar?\r\n&amp;quot;Nikki does want to settle down,&amp;quot; another pal tells Us. &amp;quot;[She] is very spontaneous.&amp;quot;\r\nTell Us: Do you think this engagement is too fast?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
