The internet went wild with rumors that Lady Gaga and Elton John both demanded a jaw-dropping $6 million fee each to perform at the extravagant wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez in Venice. But TMZ has learned the entire story is pure fiction.
💸 The $6 Million Demand That Never Happened
As news of the Venice mega-wedding made headlines, so did the gossip about entertainment costs. Stories claimed the superstar duo asked for sky-high fees — fees Bezos supposedly refused to pay — which allegedly led to neither artist performing at the A-list event.
However, insiders close to both Gaga and Elton John have told TMZ this simply isn’t true. According to sources:
“Neither Elton nor Gaga were even approached about the wedding, let alone made any demands.”
The rumors, it seems, were just that — rumors.
🎤 Who Actually Performed?
So, if Gaga and Elton John didn’t grace the stage, who did? TMZ confirms the entertainment featured:
- Ellie Goulding, who performed 4 to 5 songs for the intimate gathering
- Matteo Bocelli, son of famed tenor Andrea Bocelli, who also sang
The musical lineup kept the vibe elegant and intimate, fitting for the Venice backdrop.
🌟 A-List Guest List and Stunning Venue
The wedding was a star-studded affair, attended by heavy hitters like:
- Orlando Bloom
- Tom Brady
- Kim Kardashian
- Kris Jenner
- Khloe Kardashian
- Kendall and Kylie Jenner
- Sydney Sweeney
The newlyweds departed Venice by water taxi, waving to crowds after a once-in-a-lifetime celebration among Italy’s historic canals.

The event was far from any “Bad Romance” or drama. Instead, it was a glamorous, joyful occasion filled with music, love, and celebrity sparkle — minus any outrageous performance fees from Gaga or Elton.
