Singer Aaron Carter, the brother of Backstreet Boy Nick Carter, got engaged to his Playboy Playmate girlfriend Kari Ann Peniche on Saturday, according to People.

The two were at the Playboy Comedy Tour at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, when Carter, 18, surprised Peniche, 22, with a proposal in front of 200 people. Shocked and surprised, Peniche accepted.

“I don’t remember it happening. It was such a blur. I had no idea he was going to do this, but I’m glad he did,” Peniche told People.

Not only did it come to a shock to Peniche, but also Cort McCown, the Playboy tour producer, who thought Carter was joking.

“He said he was going to do it, but we thought he was kidding,” said McCown.

Proposing at the Playboy Comedy Tour wasn’t Carter’s first choice in how he wanted to approach his proposal. Carter’s initial intention was to take Peniche to the nearest wedding chapel, but decided against it.

Carter and Peniche plan to marry within the next six months.

“I’m very excited about it. Aaron is the most genuine person I know. He’s kind, loving, and I love him so much,” said Peniche, who once dated Nick.

As the loving couple prepares to plan their wedding, Carter’s father Bob Carter is left clueless about the whole situation.

“I heard he got married, then I heard he only got engaged. I don’t have a clue. They just started dating. Even my daughters don’t know what’s going on,” said Bob Carter, reports E! Online.

Peniche was crowned Miss Teen USA in 2003 but didn’t hold on to the title for long. She was forced to give up her title after she decided to pose for Playboy in the November 2004 issue.
