And in case you're wondering why Jennifer tagged The Ellen Show in her post, it's most likely because Ellen Degeneres is always always asking the superstar when she's going to get engaged. The Ellen Show left its own comment on the picture: "Yes. I'll be your maid of honor.

Stay tuned for more details of the engagement, but we're thinking Alex popped the question while he and Jlo were away on an island vacation. Congratulations, J-Rod!
