Not only did Martin announce his upcoming Las Vegas residency on Ellen, but he also told how he met and popped the question to Yosef. “He’s a conceptual artist and I’m a collector,” he explained. “I started looking for art and I saw his art and I went crazy because I really love what he does, really original. And then I contacted him.”

“And then you collected him,” Ellen joked.

“We just got engaged!” Martin announced excitedly. “I got on my knees and I took out the little, uh, not a box, I just had it in a little velvet pouch and instead of saying, ‘Will you marry me?’ I said, ‘I got you something!’ Bad,” the singer said. “And he said ‘Yes?’ And I said ‘I want to spend my life with you.’ Then he was like ‘What is the question?’ ‘Would you marry me?’ That’s it.”

Martin adopted twin babies eight years ago, and he said his sons get along great with his new fiancé. “They love each other. It’s perfect, Ellen. It’s been really special.”
