A Real-Life Gay Proposal Took Place on the Set of Kelly Clarkson's 'Heartbeat Song' Music Video: WATCH
Last week we posted Kelly Clarkson’s “Heartbeat Song” music video, which featured a number of couples and told a tale of how we all have a chance at finding love again after a break-up.
One of the stories was a gay couple who are seen in the clip showing off a set of rings.
The backstory on the clip, which we now know thanks to a behind-the-scenes video, is that Zac Woodward and Chad Laboy are a real-life couple and Laboy got down on one knee and proposed to Woodward for real, on set, and it was shot by the crew.
Woodward is a producer for the “Woody and Jim Show” on Nashville radio station 107.5 The River.
