Academy Award Winner Russell Crowe is planning to settle down and marry his long time flame, Danielle Spencer, newspaper reports said today.

Crowe, 38 splashed out $187,805 on a diamond engagement ring for the actress, the British Newspaper 'The Sun' reported today.

Mewzilla's Law: The length of a marriage is inversely proportional to the cost of the ring.

I dare some Hollywood lefty to say, "the cost of that ring could have fed XXX starving children."

Perhaps, but my calculation is based on two factors:

(1) She's new at this, unlike LMP who has already gone through two "marriages". She probably wants to give it the old college try.

(2) Russell Crowe is so much more famous than she is, she needs the exposure to bolster her singing career in Australia - a la J Lo/Puff Daddy stateside.

Interesting take, so Russell is going to eventually shoot someone in a New York nightclub and J-Lo/Danielle will get rid of the weapon?

I was thinking more along the lines of Crowe breaking a didgeridoo over someone's head at a seafront bar in Sydney, but sure.
