Singer Michael Buble baffled the world when he announced that not only his fiancée, Luisana Lopilato, was sporting an engagement ring, but he was as well. Otherwise known as the "man-gagement" ring, the custom is uncommon and unconventional, to say the least, though Buble’s fiancé says the custom is common in her homeland, Argentina. Here at James Allen, we were curious to know what people thought of Mr. Buble’s engagement ring, so we asked our readers what they thought. Read on to find out!

“I think it’s great! A man who is comfortable with himself can wear anything – especially an engagement ring. And I think it’s such an amazing symbol of love that he is wearing it for his fiancée, out of respect for her and her culture. Two thumbs up from me!”

“It’s a little odd and definitely unconventional, but hey, whatever floats your boat is fine with me. Though I personally wouldn’t wear one, Michael Buble actually makes it look kind of cool.”

“I think it’s a very smart way for a woman to send a clear message to the world that her man is off limits. LOL.”

“I’d love it if my fiancé wore an engagement ring. We’ve been together for 5 years and have gone through so much together. An engagement ring for him would be a great way for us to build excitement for our future together and show the world that we are a unit that can’t be shaken. “
