Kim Kardashian at Bezos Wedding: A Racy Bikini Stunt or Just Keeping It Klassy?
WEDDING OF THE CENTURY: Kim Kardashian Steals the Show (Again) at Jeff Bezos' Lavish $20 Million Wedding Bash!
The A-list guest list for billionaire tech titan Jeff Bezos' wedding to Lauren Sánchez on Venice's picturesque San Giorgio Maggiore island was a who's who of Hollywood royalty. But, as expected, Kim Kardashian West stole the spotlight with her signature flair for drama and attention-seeking antics.
As the 44-year-old makeup mogul mingled among the A-listers, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Brady, Oprah Winfrey, Orlando Bloom, and Ivanka Trump, she couldn't resist snapping selfies nonstop throughout the day. And, because it's Kim K, she just had to take a few minutes out of her busy schedule to flaunt an animal print bikini on social media, complete with a sizzling SKIMS promo.
Naturally, this move didn't sit well with everyone, sparking a wave of backlash online. "The obvious attention-seeking is really off-putting," wrote one disgruntled fan. Another quipped, "Keeping it Klassy... NOT!"
But Kim wasn't the only one turning heads at the star-studded affair. Lauren Sánchez, the award-winning journalist and wife-to-be, stunned in a shimmering $100,000 gown by Daniel Roseberry, featuring intricate embroidery of swirling vines and florals in rich blue, green, and gold tones over a champagne-colored base.
The couple's opulent wedding celebration kicked off with pre-wedding festivities at the historic Madonna dell'Orto cloisters, where guests enjoyed candlelight mingling and merriment. However, things took an unexpected turn when a sudden thunderstorm rolled in during the pre-wedding party, forcing the A-list entourage to seek shelter.
Despite the brief weather interruption, the wedding reception was nothing short of spectacular. Opera singer Matteo Bocelli kicked off the festivities with a touching tribute, opening his set with the timeless Elvis Presley classic I Can't Help Falling in Love With You. And when Jeff and Lauren exchanged their vows on San Giorgio Maggiore island, guests cheered and sang along during the heartfelt moment as a soulful Gospel choir belted out Whitney Houston's Higher Love.
But the real question on everyone's mind was: how did this lavish celebration come together? Reports suggest that Jeff and Lauren shelled out a staggering $20 million for their multi-day wedding bash, which included a welcome dinner at the Campo Della Madonna dell'Orto and a massive party scheduled (before being relocated) for Saturday night at the Scuola Grande della Misericordia.
And let's not forget the fashion! Lauren stunned in her stunning white Dior puff-sleeve suit, perfectly accessorized with a headscarf and oversized sunglasses. She also flashed a dazzling new giant diamond ring that caught plenty of attention.
As for Kim K's outfit choice, some critics took aim at her decision to promote Balenciaga, a brand that has faced controversy in recent years. "Still supporting disgusting Balenciaga while attending this wasteful climate nightmare event," wrote one disgruntled fan. Another compared her to Bianca Censori, the risqué-dressing wife of Kim's ex-husband Kanye West.
But hey, who can blame Kim for wanting to make a statement at what was essentially the wedding of the century? After all, as the saying goes: "If you want attention, attend Jeff Bezos' wedding!"
