Just call him The Duke. Actor Josh Duhamel and his girlfriend, Fergie, are engaged, his publicist said Wednesday.

Duhamel's publicist said her client recently popped the question to the pop star, whose debut solo album is titled "The Dutchess."

Duhamel, 35, told Best Life magazine in a recent interview that he has been dating 32-year-old Fergie for about three years and that they have bought a house together.

Duhamel is the star of NBC's "Las Vegas," and appeared in the movie "Transformers."

Fergie, whose name is Stacy Ann Ferguson, is a member of the Black Eyed Peas. Her hit song "Big Girls Don't Cry" has been nominated for a Grammy award in the best female pop vocal category.

Former 'O.C.' Star Accused Of DUI

Mischa Barton was arrested Thursday morning for investigation of driving under the influence of alcohol and possessing marijuana after sheriff's deputies saw her car straddling two lanes of traffic.

The 21-year-old actress, who starred on Fox's teen drama "The O.C.," was driving in West Hollywood, Calif., when she was stopped about 2:45 a.m., authorities said.

Barton was arrested for investigation of driving under the influence of alcohol, driving without a license, possessing a controlled substance and possessing marijuana, according to a statement from sheriff's Sgt. John Hocking.

She spent about seven hours in jail before being released on $10,000 bail. A court hearing was scheduled for Feb. 28.

Judge Slams Connerys, Neighbor

The legal dispute between Sean Connery and his downstairs neighbors has a fed-up judge telling both sides to cool it.

In court papers, Burton Sultan calls his neighbor Connery, 77, the antithesis of the suave secret agent he played in the James Bond films, branding him "a bully who ignores norms of neighborliness and decency" in the New York town house they share.

Connery and his wife claim the Sultan family's complaints have delayed needed repairs to the roof, imperiling the Connerys and raising the repair costs.

In a decision made public Wednesday, State Supreme Court Justice Marcy Friedman tossed out many of the Sultans' claims but slammed the Connerys for what she called their "blunderbuss" legal salvos.

The sides have clashed repeatedly over the Connerys' years-long renovations to their part of the six-story, landmarked 1869 town house. The Sultans claim the renovations have subjected them to noise, fumes, leaks and rats, ruining their collection of antique wicker furniture.

Fraser, 39, has starred in the "Mummy" films, "Gods and Monsters" and "George of the Jungle."
