Getting Married!

Filed under: Australiastic

gettingamriies.jpg

Veronicas singer Lisa Origliasso and former Australian Idol contestant Dean Geyer have announced their engagement.

The couple, who have been together for a year, released a statement on Monday to announce their happy news.

The Veronicas recently released their sophomore album, while South African-born Geyer released his debut album, Rush, last year, and has since turned his attention to acting. Last month, he joined the cast of the beloved and long-running soap Neighbours playing aspiring singer, Ty Harper.

Geyer recently told a Sydney radio station that he was very "loved up" and it was the "real deal" with Origliasso.

In the same interview, he confirmed he was still a virgin.

Someone as hot as he is that's still a virgin????

Are we sure he's straight????

      i see what you mean by "she looks like kristin cavallari with dark hair"….

      do you think the veronicas will be big in the US?
      im really confused as to why they're not being played mainstream everywhere.
      they have their own unique look, kickass music produced by the best in the business, and are SUPER nice (hate to use this word) REAL girls who are amazing role models to young girls (while still not having to be cheezy disney pop robots)

      gosh i love them, i want them all to myself!

      they are amazing souls who could really teach some of these ridiculous, talentless celebrities a lesson!

      109

      Yes Perez!! We LOVE The Veronicas!!!
      Please post more about them!!
      They are the coolest girls, and there music is SO F'ING AMAZZZZING!!!!
      HOOK ME UP is there new record, and everyone should buy it.

      Dean and Lisie are so cute together too.
      gah, he is soooo HOT!!
      And Lisie is the most beautiful celebrity out there
      Ryan Cabrera is such a losssserrr for ever breaking up with her.
      Looks like all his ex's are moving on and getting engaged, and he's just getting fatter and less talented.
      Revenge is sweeter i guess, when you're a hot chic with a kick ass career and sexy fiancee to match!

      GO LISIEEEEE

      DAMN SHE'S HOT.

      111

      I'm from Australia too… The veronicas suck, they make such dreary and processed music it gives me the SHIZ.

    12. JuGGaLiCoUS says – reply to this


      112

      In Australia, these "wanna-be's" get made out by the media as if they are… Big Stars! The sad part is, they actually believe it. And this gay virgin, he'd marry anybody! Let's hope they make lots and lots of babies together, and they get soo busy that they never have time to make another song, AGAIN.

    13. Ashley says – reply to this


      113

      I'm from OZ and Australian's should aim a bit higher in life instead of being impressed by some not-so-talented Idol "winner/loser". U aussies that are impressed with the veronicas and the like of shannon noll and guy sebastion. Need to know that you can't get much lower than an Idol loser… But at least there not in jail. lol!

    14. shut up says – reply to this


      114

      wellllllllllllllll i love them!!
      and so does the rest of america.

      just because they are pop artists doesn't mean their music is "processed"….
      almost every single one of their songs is extremely personal to them and expresses something that they have been through in their lives.

      and unlike many artists, they actually write their own songs!!!!!!!!!!
      they don't just go into a studio and sing fake shit that people have made for them.

      they put their real feelings and emotions into every song they sing.

      and people need to wake up and appreciate that.

    15. THANK YOU PEREZ!!! says – reply to this


      115

      PEREZ!! BLESS YOUR HEART!
      THANK YOU FOR BLOGGING ABOUT THE VERONICAS!

      117

      i love dean, i think he's a real sweetheart. he's made a huge deal down here in australia about his religious beliefs, and how he never wanted to lose his virginity before marriage…so i wonder why they are getting married after only a year?? hmm…but ya, that's the reason why a guy as gorgeous as him is still a virgin!! i'm very happy for them and all…but dean should marry ME!! ;)

    18. Natashja says – reply to this


      118

      Perez and readers, heaven knows that it's a mortal sin in these parts to let truth get in the way of a good story but I figure you lot need to be set straight on just a couple of points.

      Dean Geyer is not Catholic. He's a Pentecostal Christian (or what Americans would term an 'Evangelical Christian'). The Pentecostal gang are all about getting into heaven by accepting Jesus' teachings as described in the bible - hence Dean's stated pact of virginity.

      At the end of the day, we all know the vow of the big 'V' is neither here nor there. Rather it's a steaming publicity turd the media have eagerly latched onto and an ever ravenous public, hungry for tantalising 'new comer celebrity gossip', have dined out on. More fool them. And double fool Perez for paying any attention to that old chestnut. Granted that Geyer is a reasonable looking bloke of average singing ability and even less than enthralling acting prowess, his publicists are loving you for the free promotion. Trust me.

    19. Natashja says – reply to this


      119

      Equally, the Origliasso mob family allegations would pique mild amusement if only they weren't so shambolic. Really folks, if you're going to point the finger, at least concoct a good old fashioned story to go with it. Perez's archives are ripe fodder for the imagination if you're experiencing a little writers' block.

      Failing that, thumb through a copy of Mario Puzo's, The Godfather - I hear it contains a corker of a mob story. At the very worst, it might invigorate some of the language around here to a level beyond that of an illiterate, autistic grade schooler.

      Peace.

      Lisa and Dean are very real sweet people. And Jess to for that matter!
      Anyone who writes otherwise has obviously never actually met them, or is just jealous. Ive met them at an event once, and am a HUGE VERONICAS FAN!! And I can say from FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE that they are sooooooo sweet to everyone, and take their time with their fans.
      Dean seems to make her very happy, and he is seriously the hottest guy in australia.
      They are engaged, therefore very happy and in love.
      So I doubt they give a shit what anyone actually says on here.
      We judge others because we are not happy with ourselves. So give it a rest with the lame 'put downs'. Because karmas a bitch and you'll get yours.

    40. YH says – reply to this


      140

      Perez, they are called 'THE Veronicas', not just Veronicas, and you could do with better publicity of the twins than just this. And please do not file them under 'Australiastic', it's pathetic. You are so ethnophobic.

      154

      This is to all the people that are dissing Dean, I'm not trying to sound like Chris Crocker or anything. But Leave Dean alone! Who are you to judge if he's a virgin or not!? If he say's he is one, he is. From what i know Dean is defiantly not the kind of person that would lie. He doesn't deserve any of this shit from people that don't even know him, yeah he's a celebrity, and publically Christian. But who gives you all the right to say this crap? You wouldn't be saying this if you knew Dean, or were a fan. Heck you wouldn't even be saying it if he wasn't a celebrity. So please keep your rude opinions to yourself! I for one believe Dean is a virgin, and i respect that. I just wish more people would.

      Congratulations Lisa and Dean, ecstatic for you both

      he has his morals. and his morals are to stay a virgin until marriage. and good for him, he can brag about it. atleast he's got something to look forward to on their honeymoon.
