Jeweler-Turned-Psychologist Proposes to Actress Cybill Shepherd With Paperclip Ring

Well, at least she has a good sense of humor... Actress Cybill Shepherd, who is best known for her starring roles as Jacy in The Last Picture Show and Maddie Hayes in Moonlighting, revealed on Access Hollywood Live that her boyfriend proposed to her on bended knee – with a paperclip twisted into the shape of a ring.

Some women may have been riled by the silly gesture, but the 62-year-old Shepherd took it all in stride. She joked to hosts Billy Bush and Kit Hoover that her fiancé, Serbian-born jeweler-turned-psychologist Andrei Nikolajevic, was testing her true love when he asked for her hand with a twisted wire on July 12 in New York City.

“First he gave me a paperclip, that he had twisted into a ring," she said. "And then he got me this beautiful ring… It’s an heirloom… It was a very romantic moment. He makes me laugh and he’s fantastic.”

The Memphis-born actress and former model explained that although she's been married twice before, this was the first time she's been able to experience a proper engagement. We hope the third time's the charm for Ms. Shepherd.
