Sydney Sweeney puzzles fans after being spotted in Venice for Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's wedding
Sydney Sweeney has baffled social media users after she was seen out and about in Venice ahead Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez 's wedding, with many fans wondering why she has been invited.
Hollywood megastars and A-list celebrities have all descended on the Italian city for the multi-day $20 million festivities to celebrate the couple, who secretly tied the knot weeks ago.
The celebrations kicked off on Thursday night with a pre-wedding dinner, and the notable guests all headed out for a spot of high-end shopping mere hours ahead of the nuptials.
Sydney, 27, is among the star-studded guest list and was photographed hitting the shops with Vittoria Ceretti on Friday morning just hours ahead of the ceremony.
She was also pictured leaving the wedding party at Campo Della Madonna dell'Orto on Thursday evening in a plunging pink and green floral dress featuring a sweeping frilled skirt.
Details surrounding Sydney's friendship with the bride and groom remain unclear and naturally many perplexed fans are pondering her inclusion in the celebrations.
'The most random people are at this wedding,' one pointed out on Instagram.
'So, did they just invite a bunch of famous people and not actual friends and family?' asked another.

Echoing a similar sentiment, a third said: 'This wedding gets weirder and weirder. Did they just send invitations to every A-list celeb on the planet and hope some came?'
'I'm convinced they paid a bunch of random celebs to come,' another continued.
A fifth added: 'Just seems so fake and phony of a whack guest list yuck.'
Besides Sydney, the Bezos's celebrity guest list also boasts the likes of Kim Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Brady, Ellie Goulding and Kendall Jenner.
Former US President Barack Obama also joined. He and Bezos have been on warm terms for years, and Jeff donated $100 million (£72million) to the Obama Foundation in 2021.
Though Jeff and Lauren are yet to walk down the aisle in Venice - it was revealed on Thursday that the couple are already legally married.
A source told DailyMail.com: 'They have been married for at least a month, more than a month. The marriage is fully legal and took place in America under American law.'
'When they were planning the wedding, they were clear about the fact that they were already secretly married,' they added.

Just hours ago, Lauren was pictured leaving the five-star Aman hotel before making her way to San Giorgio Maggiore Island where she will exchange vows with the billionaire tech mogul.
Police officers on jet skis are out in force this afternoon as the wedding draws closer.
Officers patrolled the front of St Mark's Square in what is guaranteed to be a tight security operation this afternoon in Venice.
Italian media have reported the city will pay overtime to an unspecified number of police officers involved in security for the wedding organisers.

Rihanna shows off her growing baby bump in an unbuttoned shirt as she joins partner A$AP Rocky and their one-year-old son Riot at AWGE show during Paris Fashion Week
Rihanna showed off her growing baby bump in an unbuttoned shirt as she joined her partner A$AP Rocky and their son Riot at the AWGE show during Paris Fashion Week. The pregnant hitmaker, 37, arrived for her rapper boyfriend's creative agency's menswear Spring/Summer 2026 show in the French capital on Friday. Rihanna looked effortlessly chic for the show as she arrived in an unbuttoned blue and white striped shirt - which displayed her growing bump. She paired the shirt with a low-rise navy pleated mini-skirt, strappy white stilettos and grey slouch socks, as well as a Dracula tote bag. The singer made her entrance carrying her one-year-old son Riot, who she shares with A$AP, 36, along with their other son RZA, three. Meanwhile A$AP sported a striking black leather zip-up jacket complete with a bright orange inside lining, as well as a baseball cap and a chain. Earlier in the day, the couple put on a stylish display on Friday as they attended the Dior show. Rihanna wore a plunging white shirt and lime green waistcoat, which highlighted her baby bump. She paired the base of her outfit with a brown and blue patterned coat and grey trousers, adding a further splash of colour with brown sunglasses with a clear frame. The star kept it cool by wearing her hair up in a messy up-do, emphasising her extravagant choice of jewellery, which included a striking Marlo Laz pearl necklace - worth a staggering $70,000 (£51,015). A$AP, 36, whose real name is Rakim Mayers, wore a blue shirt and jeans, similarly adding a splash of colour with a red, blue and green Dior tie. The couple's casually stylish outfits were very much in keeping with the theme of the Dior Homme Menswear Ready-to-wear Spring-Summer 2026 show, which took inspiration from the designer's New Look and the tailored suits that characterised it in the 1950s. Rihanna's current pregnancy will see her welcome her third child with the rapper, who she has been in a relationship with since late 2019. The couple welcomed their first son, RZA Athelston Mayers, in May 2022, and their second, Riot Rose Mayers, in August 2023. Meanwhile A$AP sported a striking black leather zip-up jacket complete with a bright orange inside lining, as well as a baseball cap and a chain Rihanna's appearance at the Paris Fashion Week event comes after her father's cause of death was tragically revealed on Thursday. Ronald Fenty died on May 30 at the age of 70 from a combination of acute respiratory failure, pancreatic cancer, and aspiration pneumonia, according to TMZ. Additional causes listed include acute renal failure and acute tubular necrosis, both indicating severe kidney damage. The cause of death comes after reported that the Umbrella singer, who is currently pregnant with her third child, is struggling with the abrupt and heart-wrenching loss of Ronald. Although the pair had a complex relationship, which included periods of both reconciliation and estrangement, an insider told exclusively that the death of the superstar's dad has taken a heavy toll on the superstar (born Robyn Rihanna Fenty). 'Robyn has had a very difficult relationship with her father over the years but his death has hit her like a ton of bricks,' the source said. 'Being pregnant and dealing with A$AP's legal woes have been an emotional roller coaster for her the last few months, and to add to it all, her dad was getting sick, and it started to become too much,' they added. They continued: 'As much as you realise that something like this is occurring, it is still completely heartbreaking and that is where she is right now.' The insider also noted that she 'has forgiven her father and, in death, they got back to a loving father and daughter relationship.' 'But, she is in pain, especially being a mother herself and there being a chance that her kids would have lost their dad to jail a few months back, she feels how important family is,' the source explained. 'This is going to take a long time, and maybe even forever to get over. Sad time in her world right now.' Over the weekend, news broke that Fenty died at age 70 in Los Angeles following a 'brief illness,' according to Starcom Network, a local outlet from Barbados.

Kim Kardashian's daughter North West, 12, has fans all saying the same thing about her viral video
Kim Kardashian 's tween daughter North West has gone viral for appearing in influencer Chris Smoove's latest video. The 12-year-old nepo baby, whose dad is controversy-plagued Kanye West, rocked her hair in knee-length blue braids and a gothic-inspired shirt, shorts, and sneakers. Chris, who's known for profiling celebrities and their designer threads, asked North how much her outfit cost, piece by piece. And she sent the internet into hysterics as she gave the same answer for each question: 'I don't know.' Fans convened in the comments section of the post, collectively agreeing that the youngster is 'just like' her famous father. 'Daddy's daughter,' one person wrote, along with a string of crying laughing emojis and one shrug emoji. Chris, who's known for profiling celebrities and their designer threads, asked North how much her outfit cost, piece by piece. And she sent the internet into hysterics as she gave the same answer for each question: 'I don't know' Someone else said North was 'Princess Yeezy Fasho,' referencing Kanye's popular clothing line. Another social media user declared, 'She definitely has her dad's personality for SURE.' 'She just like her daddy,' influencer Nick Yardy added.' North's interview echoed her dad's 2021 chat with Smoove, during which he answered 'I don't know' for most of the questions presented to him as he rocked an all-black ensemble. The Chicago-bred rapped did, however, divulge that the watch he was wearing at the time ran him $200,000. Chris captioned this week's video featuring North, 'How much is your outfit worth? North West Pulled a YE on me,' adding crying laughing emojis. It comes after the Kim and Kanye's firstborn of four children recently celebrated her June 15 birthday on a yacht in Mexico. Another social media user declared, 'She definitely has her dad's personality for SURE' In addition to North, the exes also share son Saint, nine, daughter Chicago, seven, and son Psalm, six. They were married from 2014 until the television star filed for divorce in February 2021. West moved on with busty Bianca Censori, 30, marrying her in December 2022, the month after his divorce was finalized. Together they're known for their outlandish public appearances, which often see the Australian architect scantily clad. Meanwhile, since leaving the YZY creator, Kim has been romantically involved with Pete Davidson, and linked to Tom Brady. The 44-year-old bombshell billionaire is currently in Italy, where she's enjoying Lauren Sanchez and Jeff Bezos' wedding festivities. The bombshell billionaire was trolled on social media ahead of the weekend for making the Bezos wedding 'all about her' as she posted racy content to social media. The lavish celebration kicked off with pre-wedding festivities at the historic Madonna dell'Orto cloisters, where A-listers including Leonardo DiCaprio, Oprah Winfrey, Orlando Bloom, and Ivanka Trump mingled under candlelight. Some of Kim's famous family — Khloe Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner, and momager Kris Jenner — were also at the star-studded affair. But despite being surrounded by celebrities and an opulent setting, Kim couldn't seem to stay off her phone. She was spotted snapping selfies throughout the day — and in between her self-staged photo shoots, she slipped in a sizzling SKIMS promo, flaunting an animal print bikini on social media.
