It turns out the proposal was from singer and celebrity chef Datuk Fazley Yaakob to celebrity entrepreneur Datuk Seri Vida during TikTok Shop's 11.11 Mega Syok concert at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre last night
Fazley reportedly performed two songs, including Di Alam Fana Cinta, one of Vida's favourite songs, before getting down on one knee to pop the question.
Overwhelmed by the romantic gesture, Vida, whose real name is Hasmiza Othman, 56, said yes and thanked Fazley.
"My answer is yes, yes and yes. Thank you, darling. Is this the beginning of something big, including the fulfilment of my prayers to find happiness with a partner?" she said.
Fazley, 48, also presented Vida with a specially designed RM7,000 ring by Habib Jewels that is shaped like a tiara, inspired by Vida's fondness for wearing crowns.
Fazley said the proposal was planned two to three weeks in advance, and was attended by children from both families
According to the New Straits Times, Fazley said he chose to propose during the TikTok concert because of Vida's strong following on the platform.
"To me, DSV is the 'Queen of TikTok'. So it is only fitting that we celebrate her in a world that has given her so much support and recognition," he said.
He added that he wanted the proposal to be a public declaration of their relationship.
"People have often asked whether our relationship is serious, whether it is merely social media content or whether we are already married. So, I wanted to give the public a clear answer," he said.
The elaborate proposal is estimated to have cost around RM500,000, including the 1,200-drone display, production, event preparations, and other arrangements.
