Kim Kardashian Denies Being Engaged To Kanye West

Last week, Ryan Seacrest began some rumors that Kim Kardashian was looking to get engaged to her boyfriend Kanye West. In fact, on Friday he said that he was sure there would be an update to this story on Monday. When the weekend was over, we noticed photos of Kim sporting a giant diamond ring on her pinky finger. This led to even more rumors that she is, in fact, engaged to Kanye.

The rumors said that Kim would be moving the ring to its proper place (her ring finger) once her divorce from Kris Humphries was finally over. Kim has since denied any rumors that she is engaged.

Yes, Kanye swept her off to Italy to celebrate her 32nd birthday, but they didn't get engaged — according to her. She said, "I don't know where Ryan came up with that. Ryan, I am so mad at you, where did you come up with that? You're starting rumors."

She insisted, "It's just a rumor. But I had an amazing birthday, very intimate and very special."

Is she trying to save face so that she can sell her "amazing" birthday/engagement story to a tabloid? What do you think?
