Bow Wow, oops, Shad Moss, is really falling into grown man status as of late. First, the name change and now he's engaged to Love And Hip-Hop star Erica Mena. She made the announcement on the red carpet for the BET Hip-Hop Awards.
According to XXL, the 106 & Park host popped the question before hitting the awards show Saturday evening in Atlanta. Mena gushed and confirmed the news with ThisIs50′s Jack Thriller when asked about the status of their relationship. She also revealed that Love And Hip-Hop will be returning for another season in November.
Moss confirmed later that night by posting a photo of the rock, with a special appearance from his Rolex, on Instagram. Congratulations!
This has been quite the year for Moss. Last month, it was announced that he would star in an upcoming CBS series CSI: Cyber. He will star in the series alongside Patricia Arquette and James Van Der Beek.
The rapper turned actor turned television host will be playing the role of Brody "Baby Face" Nelson, a savant computer hacker who's ordered by a judge to work with a cyber crimes police unit.
"Bow Wow is a gifted young actor who will have the responsibility, through his character, to set an example for young people who watch the show to 'do what's right' even when you know 'nothing but wrong,'" said CSI creator Anthony E. Zuiker. "It will be a redemption story and a cautionary tale all wrapped into one. The role of Nelson required someone with deep acting chops and off the charts smarts. Shad Moss is a unique talent that possesses both."
CSI: Cyber will be the third spinoff of the original CSI series, following CSI: Miami and CSI: NY.
