I respect him far too much as an artist and a friend,” she explained. 

“Later that night because he knew I felt nervous, he took me into a room and we secretly ate pizza and I told him I like his ring and he gave it to me,” she added. The actress mentioned that she still has the ring and every time she wears it, something amazing happens with her.
