Marcy Blum, a well-known celebrity event planner, revealed that Jennifer Lopez had indicated interest in having Bruno Mars perform at her wedding to Alex Rodriguez, which has subsequently been postponed to a later date. On the other hand, Lopez was unable to agree to the exorbitant amount that the singer of "24K Magic" demanded.
"We were working with Lopez and Rodriguez before they broke up, and they were going through a list of musicians, and she goes, 'What about Bruno Mars?'" Blum said on "The Skinny Confidential Him & Her Podcast" Thursday.
According to Page Six, Lopez, who is 55 years old, was informed by the author of "Wedding Planning for Dummies," who is 71 years old, that she had "just worked with" Mars, who is 39 years old, on another wedding, and that Mars had made $5 million to perform for 45 minutes to an hour.
To Blum's recollection, the vocalist who has become famous for the song "Let's Get Loud" answered with the statement "Don't be ridiculous!"
Despite the fact that she "never signed an NDA" when she was arranging Lopez and Rodriguez's tragic wedding, the party expert admitted that she was able to discuss the narrative with other people while the wedding was being planned.
The Grammy nominee and the former New York Yankees outfielder, who is now 49 years old, started dating in 2017, and in 2019, they announced that they were engaged to be married.
It was originally planned for the couple to get married in Italy in the year 2020; but, due to the COVID-19 epidemic, they were forced to postpone their wedding. The wedding was originally scheduled to take place in Italy.
Just a few months before Lopez became romantically linked with Ben Affleck once more, Lopez and Rodriguez made the decision to end their relationship in 2021, per Daily Express.
Additionally referred to as Bennifer, the celebrity couple who started dating in the early 2000s eventually went on to elope in Las Vegas in 2022 and then subsequently staged a more traditional wedding ceremony in Georgia.
On the other hand, Lopez announced in August that she intended to divorce Affleck, who is 52 years old, citing "irreconcilable differences" as the official reason for her decision.
Having been married four times, the actress from "Maid in Manhattan" is the mother of twins named Max and Emme, who are currently 16 years old. Her ex-husband Marc Anthony is the father of these twins. While he was married to Jennifer Garner, the Oscar winner was also a co-parent to three children: Violet, who is now 19 years old; Seraphina, who is 15 years old; and Samuel, who is 12 years old. Violet is the oldest of the three children.
