Posted: 8/1/05 at 2:37pmI watched the View episode, and Idina did not say that Taye picks out her clothes. She said he is romantic and buys her clothes.

Posted: 8/1/05 at 2:40pmIf I were a straight female I wouldn't announce to the world that my "husband" picks out my clothes. I hear he designs all of her costumes too. He's very crafty with a needle and thread.

Posted: 8/1/05 at 2:42pmTaye explained the proposal when he was InStyle's Man of the Month a few years ago. That's how I heard about the naked-in-bed-thing. Not stalkerish if it's in a magazine.

Whoa, I am definitely NOT a stalker. It was in a magazine article... HE was the one who put it out there. And like I said, it was a little bit too much information!

Here is the actual quote from the article:
You're engaged to your Rent co-star Idina Menzel. How did you pop the question?
I wanted to come home, strip down and have us both be naked. But then I started to get nervous, so I put on some music and lit a candle. I had the ring hidden in a shoe in my closet, and while she wasn't looking I grabbed it and jumped into bed and hid it under the pillow. So I did propose in the nude. After she said, "Are you serious?" for the sixth time, she didn't know whether she wanted to have sex with me or call all of her friends.
