I thought she was going to go like full boobie, Like I mean she has a great body, so she looked amazing in the dress. I'm not a fan of lace so I didn't care for that, which was like the whole dress, but I think she looked pretty. I'd give it like a six out of 10 for the dress. Okay, and I mean her hair. I mean her hair was cute. I think what was up in, like a bun or something. Yep, yeah, it was. It was all right. It wasn't my favorite. I think I've seen better celebrity wedding dresses.

Speaker 2So, whatever it's her wedding dress, she felt comfortable in it. She thought it was what she wanted. Do you remember who designed it?
Speaker 1I read it like five times that I'm. Was it Versace?
Speaker 2no it was Dolce and Gabbana Dolce.
Speaker 1Okay, I knew it was one because they designed like all the Kardashian weddings and stuff like Kourtney and stuff so, whatever it's your wedding, you feel beautiful in it.
Speaker 2If I had $50 million to spend on my wedding, is that the dress I chose?
Speaker 1I mean, it was custom made. I feel like she could have looked better for $50 million, like I. Just I don't know.
Speaker 2But if you want to know who actually hated her wedding dress, it is Jeff Bezos' ex-wife. So Jeff Bezos' ex-wife took to Twitter, also known as ex. Welcome to the 80s, when big hair and conspicuous consumption ruled. Apparently, Tacky is back.
Ex-Wife Drama and Venice Logistics

Speaker 2I don't know if they signed a prenup Like the ex?
Speaker 1Yeah, they had. With how rich she is. They had to have signed a prenup.
Speaker 2There's no way, kate and Jeff yeah, you think she left that marriage with $0?.

Speaker 2She's like you know what? What do I have to lose? Who cares? So are you going to venice? No, okay, well, that's good, because people were reporting that the heat was not helpful and that it took forever to get around Venice, which meant which were by boats. It was a hassle and it took ages to get around. They also said there were a lot of people who needed to get to the same place at the same time. There wasn't great transportation. A-list invitees were allegedly grumbling about the least about the least, and then were disrespectful about the event schedule. People were complaining about being tired by the time of wedding day because there were so many days of activities. Do you remember when we did this daily buzz and we talked about the, the Venice government or Venice like?
Speaker 2city council said that there was not going to be an issue with transportation, that it wouldn't affect the regular tourist stuff.
Speaker 1That is a lie. Well, venice, I mean, I've never been there, but I've heard, obviously, that you can only get around through Bo. Obviously, you can like walk through, the like, once you get to a certain spot, you can walk around, but I just don't see with how much. How many people were invited and especially snobby A-listers being like I need to get here as soon as possible and I need the best treatment and I'm in nine inch stilettos.
Speaker 2How do they think that?
Speaker 1was a good idea to have it there. I just don't get that.
