While this year’s Super Bowlmarks the first time that Las Vegas will host football’s biggest game, it has been a city that has bought the musician luck on prior occasions.
During an appearance on theCall Her Daddypodcast in August 2023, Malone revealed that it is where he and his fiancée, whom he hasn’t identified publicly,got engaged.
“I had lost a significant amount of money at the table. We go upstairs and I’m off my rocker hammered and I was like, ‘Hey, you wanna marry me?' I got a ring and all this stuff. And she said, ‘No.’ She’s like, ‘Ask me tomorrow’ and I was like, ‘Alright.’ And then I did and I was sober and it was nice,” he told hostAlex Cooper.
