The renowned celebrity event planner revealed Jennifer Lopez wanted Bruno Mars to perform at her since-canceled wedding to Alex Rodriguez, only to balk at the “24K Magic” singer’s staggering fee.
“We were working with J.Lo and A-Rod 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.
The “Wedding Planning for Dummies” author, 71, remembered telling Lopez, 55, that she had “just worked with” Mars, 39, on another wedding and he received $5 million to sing for 45 minutes to an hour.
“‘Don’t be ridiculous!’” the “Let’s Get Loud” singer replied, according to Blum’s recollection.
The party guru admitted she could share the story because she “never signed an NDA” while planning Lopez and Rodriguez’s doomed nuptials.
