Interrupting their show, Draiman invited his partner, now-fiancée, Sarah Uli, onto the stage and introduced her to the crowd.
'Everybody, say hello to my lovely lady Sarah,' he said to cheers.
'She's looking at me and she's wondering, 'What the f**k is he doing?'
'Sarah, my love. You have made my life so much better. You are the light in the darkness for me.
'I love you more than anything I have ever loved in this world, and it would be the absolute pinnacle of my life and my existence…'
He then got down on one knee and said: 'Sarah Uli, will you marry me?'
Sharing the moment on social media, Sarah said in a post: 'The happiest moment ever with the love of my life 💕 💍 We are engaged!!!! @davidmdraiman.'
Fans loved this romantic moment and took to social media to share their congratulations with the couple.
'Mazel tov!! Was sweet to see this live tonight,' butrphli commented on Instagram as the couple shared their engagement video.
'That was so special …. thank you for sharing this special moment with Sacramento,' said tina_baldassare1.
'Congratulations to a great couple! May you have many wonderful years together!' said jan_s_rn.
'Was such a beautiful moment. Happy for y'all! Congrats :)' said fellow rocker Jonny Hawkins.

Harry and Meghan spark 'bemusement' with unexpected wish for Archie and Lilibet

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle reportedly want to leave options open in the future for their children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet - and those in royal circles have reacted Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's unexpected wish for Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet has reportedly sparked bemusement in royal circles. The Sussexes dramatically quit as working royals to carve out a new life in California - but it has been reported that they don't want to rule royal life for their children. Insiders close to the Sussexes previously said they want Archie and Lilibet to retain their titles and HRH styles so they can choose to become working royals if they so wish when they are adults. It came after the source spoke out and claimed the Sussexes feared passports for their children were being held up due to the use of their royal titles. ‌ ‌ But in a new report in the Sunday Times, it is claimed there is 'bemusement' in royal circles by this plan and that working royal roles for the youngsters in the reign of Prince William is 'unlikely'. It comes as those close to William have reportedly noticed a marked shift when it comes to his attitude toward his estranged brother. A friend told the publication: "What has struck me the most recently is that he just doesn't mention it at all. It used to be that the family stuff was taking up a lot of space in his head, it was a very close relationship and he was very upset. But he's not letting it get to him at all any more. It is a change. It's sad, but it's a much healthier space for him to be at." In recent months Meghan has been sharing more and more of her children online after setting up her own Instagram account at the start of the year. x In recent weeks, the children have featured in an intimate family video of a trip to video as well as in a Father's Day tribute for their dad, Harry. ‌ And today, Lilibet has made yet another appearance in a brand new reel shared by mum Meghan. The clip takes viewers on a behind-the-scenes glimpse of Meghan preparing for the second drop of her As Ever products. It shows Meghan practising her calligraphy, picking raspberries and other fruit from her garden, harvesting honey and exploring the garden with Lilibet. Meghan says: "A little behind the scenes of @aseverofficial. Hope you enjoy your treats when they arrive this week!" The Duchess restocked her website with a number of new items, including a 'Limited edition orange blossom honey' on sale for 28 US dollars (£20) - but all sold out within hours. ‌ Meghan had promised some 'delicious surprises' as she teased, earlier this week, that she would be offering some new products on her As Ever site. Also available was apricot spread in 'keepsake packaging' and a crepe mix, both £10 each, flower sprinkles for £11 and a range of herbal teas at £9 each. She also announced she is launching her own wine, with her rose, described as having 'soft notes of stone fruit, gentle minerality, and a lasting finish', available to buy next month.

Heidi Klum goes totally topless in just nude tights for new selfie video as she gets ready backstage of Loreal ad

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) HEIDI Klum knows how to cause a stir – and her latest Instagram post left fans feeling flustered. The legendary model shared behind-the-scenes pics from her time on set for make-up brand L'Oreal, donning a royal blue look complete with matching eye make up. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Heidi Klum set pulses racing by posing naked backstage Credit: heidiklum/Instagram 5 The star was later glammed up for an ad for L'Oreal Credit: Instagram/heidiklum But as stunning as the look was – including elaborate black and white eyeliner with a bronzed glow – Heidi drew most attention when she wore next to nothing. In a cheeky behind-the-scenes snap of her getting ready, Heidi stripped down to nothing but a pair of flash-covered underwear. Covering her breasts with her arm, Heidi pulled a sultry pose to the camera in the Instagram Story, before it cut off. She then cut to a falafel and salad bowl, which made her declare: "Yum yum yum yum, yummy!" READ MORE HEIDI KLUM HEI BALL SLEEVES Braless Heidi Klum, 52, shows off endless legs in sheer black mini-dress The Stories then followed through to how the rest of the look was completed, with Heidi sitting in a towel as she got her make-up done. French braids were added to the front of her hair for a 60s inspired look, with the eyeliner framing her eyes which had a blend of white and blue shadow. Heidi has never been afraid of showing off her enviable figure and teasing her audience. Earlier this month she got pulses racing by posing in a flesh-coloured thong bikini in order to water her garden. Dancing around her vegetable patch with a giant hose, Heidi jokily posed with the hose between her legs before pouting at the camera. Shortly afterwards, she switched bikini tops into a baby blue number, and added jeans and a jean jacket in order to attend an event for swimswear brand Calzedonia. Heidi has been in the spotlight for over 30 years, becoming a household name after winning a national modeling contest in Germany in 1992. In 1998, she broke out into the States when she appeared on the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue. She later became a Victoria's Secret Angel, remaining with the brand until 2010. Since then, Heidi's turned her attention to TV presenting as well as modelling for clothing brands, most notably fronting design challenge show Project Runway, and judging America's Got Talent. She's also become famed for her annual Halloween costumes – which often involve elaborate prosthetics to completely transform her and husband Tom Kaulitz. Over the years she has appeared as a worm (with Tom as a battered fisherman), an male and female version of E.T, and a flesh-eating alien with tubes coming out of her boobs. 5 The star tracked every moment of her day - from her food to the final look Credit: Instagram/heidiklum 5 Heidi just wore flesh coloured underwear as she posed Credit: heidiklum/Instagram
