Did Lauren Sanchez-Jeff Bezos Make Guests Sign NDAs for 50 Million USD Wedding? Sara Foster Spills Beans
Sara Foster is giving fans a closer look at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's USD 50 million wedding, revealing new details about the high-profile event that took place in Venice, Italy. On the July 17 episode of her podcast The World's First Podcast, the actress and daughter of David Foster spoke candidly about attending the star-studded wedding, which took place on June 27. Despite the global attention the wedding received, Foster said it wasn't the over-the-top event many had assumed it would be. Inside the surprisingly low-key wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Foster revealed that the ceremony, which spanned three days, was surprisingly low-key. 'There's nothing, it's so interesting how the optics were this over the top, you know, protesters…it's just not, it's not what it was. It actually felt very intimate,' she told her sister and co-host Erin Foster. The podcast host also made a surprising claim: 'No one signed NDAs. No NDAs,' she said, confirming that Bezos and Sánchez didn't require guests to sign non-disclosure agreements, even though it was one of the most high-profile weddings of the year. Here's what Sara Foster had to say about the backlash Sara Foster admitted she was surprised by the online reaction after sharing a few photos from the wedding on Instagram. 'Here's the problem. You can't say anything anymore without being attacked,' she shared. 'I swear to God, it never occurred to me once that anybody would take issue with people attending a wedding. Truly. It really didn't. It didn't.' Though she offered some behind-the-scenes insight, Sara refused to reveal the names of guests who went unphotographed. 'I can't. I mean, that's, like, so lame. I'm not gonna do that. But it's very interesting how many people went un-photographed. It was definitely a very interesting setup.' The wedding attracted major celebrities including Oprah Winfrey, Leonardo DiCaprio, Mick Jagger, Sydney Sweeney, Jerry Seinfeld, Orlando Bloom, Jessica Alba, Bill Gates, Brooks Nader, and Ivanka Trump. Members of the Kardashian-Jenner family, including Kim, Khloé, Kendall, Kylie, and Kris Jenner, were also in attendance.

‘Saiyaara': Mahesh Babu, Alia Bhatt, Arjun Kapoor and others shower praises on Mohit Suri's romance drama
The Saiyaarafever has truly gripped the tinsel town. Filmmaker Mohit Suri's intense romance drama, featuring debutants Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, has turned out to be one of the most pleasant surprises this year. The film has been garnering a lot of praise from within the film industry as well. On Sunday (July 20), Telugu superstar Mahesh Babu praised Saiyaara, calling it 'a beautifully made film with honest storytelling.' The star passed on his love to the two newcomer actors as well. 'Big love to #AhaanPanday & #AneetPadda for living their roles so effortlessly… This one deserves all the love coming its way…' wrote Mahesh. Take a bow #Saiyaara team…👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 What a beautifully made film with honest storytelling, standout performances and top notch execution….. Big love to #AhaanPanday & #AneetPadda for living their roles so effortlessly… This one deserves all the love coming its way… ♥️♥️♥️… — Mahesh Babu (@urstrulyMahesh) July 20, 2025 Meanwhile, Bollywood star Alia Bhatt penned a heartfelt note to the team behind Saiyaara. Praising Ahaan and Aneet, she wrote, 'I don't remember the last time I looked at two actors with such awe. With stars in my eyes… watching the stars in yours. You both shine with such individuality, such honesty — I could watch you again, and again, and again. (And let's be honest… I probably will.)' 'To the captain of this very wonderful ship @mohitsuri — what a film. What feeling. What music!!!!!!!! You made me feel things that only the movies can make you feel. Saiyaara is full of heart, full of soul, full of something that just stays with you… in the best way,' added Alia. On the other hand, actor Arjun Kapoor penned a sweet, emotional note on Instagram Stories. The actor said Mohit's film made him feel 'alive and vulnerable,' an that it relive so much from his own personal life. '@ahaanpandayy ur wait has been worth it so felt so raw so visceral terrific debut brother...@aneetpadda I'm a fan for life... u had me in awe while u spoke ur eyes ur vulnerability ur absolute honesty the way u looked at him made us love him & u more,' added Arjun, before wishing his best to the producers and the technicians behind the film. Meanwhile, the film is having a dream run at the box office, having collected ₹45.75 crores in its first two days of release. Netizens have taken note of how the film's strong opening is despite having almost no media buildup before its release. Suri has revealed that he wished to keep the opening pair away from pre-release promotions, like he did with his 2013 hit Aashiqui 2, starring Shraddha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur, to ensure that the emotions on-screen felt more authentic. The move seems to have worked in favour of the film. The Hindu's review of Saiyaararead, 'With mental health as the villain of the piece, the story echoes the times when love is reduced to a lollipop by market forces. In the digital age, Mohit dials back to the pre-rom-com era, when heartache travelled through the screen on the wings of melodies, sacrifice was considered a virtue, and selfless love was celebrated.' Saiyaara is produced by Akshaye Widhani of Yash Raj Films.
