Penelope Cruz deflects Dave Letterman. Penelope was promoting her new movie on Dave’s show when Dave asked her the million dollar question. Would she or is she engaged to Javier Bardem?

More pictures of Penelope after the denial…

Penelope wouldn’t answer that question! But she did say via Popeater:

 ”I’ve been here a few times with you, you know I’m tough. One thing I don’t do, I don’t lie about my personal life,” Cruz, 35, told Letterman, PEOPLE is reporting.

She went on to say that her romantic and personal privacy is “sacred,” and that she doesn’t “give details about it because I am allergic to that.”

Never one to give up easily, Letterman then joked with Cruz, asking her, “So you know, but you don’t want to tell me?” Cruz snapped back with laughter, saying “I choose not to share some things!”

 Aha! So I think she is engaged. Why else would penelope deflect like that? She could have just said no. What do you think – Penelope and Javier?
