Mariah Carey's three-word response to Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding leaves Internet in stitches

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Mariah Carey had the internet in stitches with a simple but cutting remark when asked about Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding.

The singer, 56, didn’t attend the lavish event, and her answer jokingly sparked fresh comparisons to one of her most iconic quotes related to Jennifer Lopez.

Mariah Carey says 'I wasn't there' about Jeff Bezos' wedding

While walking down the street, Mariah Carey was approached by a photographer who asked what she thought of the billionaire’s star-studded ceremony. Her brief response ignited a wave of reactions online.

A photographer asked the Grammy winner, “What did you think about Jeff Bezos’ wedding?” in a video that later went viral on TikTok and X. Carey simply replied, “I wasn’t there.”

The moment instantly reminded fans of her infamous 2003 interview about Jennifer Lopez, where she famously said, “I don’t know her.”

When pressed further about whether she was invited, Carey chuckled and said, “Oh, don’t turn this into that.”

The original 2003 comment, made during a TV interview, has since become one of the most meme-worthy moments in pop culture.

Inside Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s star-studded Venice wedding

Although Mariah Carey wasn’t in attendance, Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s nuptials were anything but low-key.

Held at a 16th-century basilica on Venice's Giorgio Maggiore island, the wedding drew more than 200 top-tier guests.

Those present included Oprah Winfrey, Kim Kardashian, Leonardo DiCaprio, Sydney Sweeney, Tom Brady, Kylie and Kris Jenner, Orlando Bloom, and Ivanka Trump with Jared Kushner.

The total combined wealth of attendees reportedly exceeded $461 billion.

Guests were treated to a $1,000-a-head meal at the “extremely intimate” ceremony, which also had a strict no-phone policy. The event reportedly cost $50 million and stirred backlash from some locals in Venice.

Internet reacts to Mariah Carey’s reply

Social media quickly reacted to Mariah Carey's comment, drawing comparisons to her previous statement about Jennifer Lopez.

“I don’t think she knows them,” one user wrote on X with a laughing emoji.

Another posted the classic Lopez meme with the caption, “Paps stay asking Mariah dumb questions – like they could’ve asked her how excited she is to release MC16 instead they ask her about a man she doesn’t know.”

“Her saying ‘I wasn’t there’ – she clearly knows who he is, come on,” someone joked, while another added, “Who? What wedding? She doesn’t know it.”

A fan commented on TikTok, “I’m honestly surprised she knows about their wedding. She’s releasing a new album soon. I’d figure all her energy goes towards that when she’s in album mode lol.”

Another person echoed the sentiment by writing, “She doesn’t know them.”
