Lauren Sánchez sends message to Katy Perry as she misses Venice wedding amid Orlando Bloom breakup
One of the comments on the post came from Sánchez, who is in the middle of a three-day wedding celebration in the northern Italian city. 'We miss you, Katy,' she wrote alongside a heart emoji.
Despite the 'Teenage Dream' singer not being at the destination wedding, her rumored-to-be-ex-fiancé, Bloom, has attended.
'Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable,' a source told Us Weekly earlier this week about the couple's breakup. 'It's not contentious at the moment. Katy is of course upset but is relieved to not have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life.'
The source added the couple had been living apart since the singer began her Lifetimes tour in April this year, adding that things had been 'tense for months.'
'They've grown apart and aren't living the same lives anymore,' they said.
Perry and Bloom began dating in 2016 after meeting at a Golden Globes afterparty. They split for about a year in 2017 and announced they were taking 'respectful but loving space.'
They rekindled their relationship before Bloom proposed in front of Perry's friends and family in 2019, and their daughter Daisy Dove arrived the following year.
Bloom also has a 13-year-old son, Flynn, with ex-wife Miranda Kerr.
The reports of their breakup come not long after the 'Dark Horse' singer faced ridicule for her world tour as well as the April Blue Origin voyage that saw her join five other women — including Sánchez — for an 11-minute space flight.
Meanwhile, Sánchez's wedding festivities are underway with Friday's official ceremony. Many celebrities have shown up to attend the nuptials, including Leonardo DiCaprio, Kim Kardashian, and Tom Brady.
They, along with Kendall and Kylie Jenner, Oprah Winfrey, and Gayle King, have all been seen at what is already being dubbed 'the wedding of the century.'
The events are expected to cost between $46 and $55 million, which is unlikely to make a dent in Bezos's $231 billion net worth.

15 Boy Band Songs If You Love KPop Demon Hunters Saja Boys ‘Soda Pop'
Netflix K-Content, "Saja Boys - Soda Pop (Official Lyric Video) | K-Pop Demon Hunters | Netflix" KPop Demon Hunters has not only taken over Netflix as a Number One movie but has sent its soundtrack soaring up the charts around the world. HitsDailyDouble reports the OST earning about 75,000 units from July 4-10, up 23 percent from last week's total of neraly 61,000, for the soundtrack's biggest week in America yet. Beyond the U.S., the KPop Demon Hunters soundtrack hit Number One on the official album charts in Australia, New Zealand and Germany, while reaching the Top 5 in Canada, Austria, Portugal, Lithuania, Switzerland, Norway and more. While the soundtrack songs 'Golden' and 'Your Idol' made initial dents on the charts, even more songs from the film are surging like 'Soda Pop,' the debut single by the demons-in-disguise boy band Saja Boys. Its effervescent bubblegum-pop melody mixed with the group's charming good looks quickly turns everyone into a fan — including the movie's starring girl group, HUNTR/X. The vocals on 'Soda Pop" are handled by Andrew Choi, Danny Chung, samUIL Lee and Neckwav. Remarkably, Woo is a former K-pop boy band member (performing in U-KISS from 2008 until 2017), while Choi, Chung, Lee and Neckwav have written songs for major K-pop acts including, respectively, TWICE, BLACKPINK, RIIZE, miss A's MIN, plus many more. 'Soda Pop' taps into the bright and bubbly side of K-pop boy bands — a concept many acts use in their musical journey, usually at the start of their careers when the group is at its youngest but sometimes to change up or refresh their sound. As new fans continue to explore the movie and its soundtrack, now is the perfect time to dive deeper into the world of K‑pop if you are still to make the leap. Maybe you'll love some bright K-pop boy bands? So, if you love Saja Boys' here are TKTKTKTKTKTKT similar tracks from chart-topping K-pop groups like SHINee, NCT DREAM and ZEROBASEONE, as well as groups from elsewhere around the world like BGYO from the Philippines, to expand your musical world and playlists. 1. NCT DREAM, 'Chewing Gum' Originally conceived as a group for teenage K-pop stars before 'graduating' into other NCT units like 127, WayV or WISH, NCT DREAM's overwhelming popularity cemented them into fans' hearts that the first seven members were turned into a fixed group. No doubt their delicious debut single 'Chewing Gum' began the fan support early with such a catchy track and was likely a major inspiration as to why the Saja Boys are first introduced with their equally effervescent 'Soda Pop.' 2. ZEROBASEONE, 'Feel the POP' Created through millions of fan votes through a singing competition series, ZEROBASEONE is meant to represent the ideal, modern-day boy band. The ninesome's refreshing 'Feel the POP' has the same swoon-y, bubbly vibeTK that made millions in the movie — and, increasingly, in real life — fall for the Saja Boys and this song. 3. AB6IX, 'Cherry' Since AB6IX's 2019 debut, the outfit has tried out a range of different sounds and styles from slinky R&B to military-like marches, but 2021's 'Cherry' was the guys' sweetest release, written by members Park Woo Jin and Lee Dae Hwi, the latter of whom also co-composed the track. Mix this AB6IX hit with Saja Boys' first single and you get 'Cherry Soda Pop.' Yum! 4. SHINee, 'Dream Girl' With more than 15 years in K-pop, SHINee's 'Dream Girl' ranks as one of their biggest, hitting Number One on South Korea's singles chart and selling nearly one million downloads to date. The song also reached No. 3 on Billboard's U.S. World Digital Songs chart marking one of the group's highest-charting singles ever. And after one listen of this bright, soulful-pop gem will make it obvious why this song remains a sparkling gem in SHINee's pristine discography. 5. Kim Woo Seok, 'Sugar' Throughout his music career, Kim Woo Seok has proven his versatility as a soloist able to embrace darker concepts akin to Saja Boys' 'Your Idol' as well as 'Soda Pop.' The February 2021 release of 'Sugar' came right in time for Valentine's Day with Woo Seok showcasing a sweet and soft side of himself with candy-colored hair colors, whimsical face stickers and bright lip glosses as he sang on top of a giant frosted bundt cake. 6. RIIZE, 'Get a Guitar' Ushering in the latest generation of K-pop boy bands, RIIZE made immediate impact on the scene with their sweetly smooth debut single 'Get a Guitar.' Earning comparisons to One Direction's early work, RIIZE brought round a sweeter side of boy bands at a time when most were embracing intense and hard-hitting concepts. 7. Golden Child, 'Pump It Up' Golden Child debuted in 2017 with 11 members when successful groups like SEVENTEEN, WJSN, LOONA and I.O.I exascerbated the trend of groups with a large amount of members. The group began with a more fresh and innocent image with singles like 'Pump It Up' from 2020 letting their boyish charms breakthrough entirely. 8. CRAVITY, 'Groovy' Nine-member boy band CRAVITY entered the K-pop industry with their rebellious debut single 'Break All the Rules,' but 2023's 'Groovy' is a bubblegum-pop gem of a track that became one of their first chart hits in Korea. 9. THE BOYZ, 'Bloom Bloom' Originally a 12-member group, THE BOYZ have experimented with several different styles and sounds through since their late-2017 debut with their first breakout hit coming via 'Bloom Bloom' in 2019. The track embodies a bursting feeling of youthful, boyish charms with its lyrics partially written by members Sunwoo and Eric. 10. BGYO, 'Tumitigil Ang Mundo' As the Philippines is growing its music influence globally, its artists are showcasing a range of styles and colors. Five-member boy band BGYO embraced an energetic, feel-good vibe on 'Tumitigil Ang Mundo' (which translates to 'The World Stops') as the first single off their sophomore album Be Us from 2022. Peep the official music video below and look out for the BGYO guys performing on a neighborhood streets that's reminiscent to when we first meet Saja Boys performing 'Soda Pop.' 11. DRIPPIN, 'Free Pass' A younger brother group to Golden Child under the same label of Woollim Entertainment, DRIPPIN released 'Free Pass' in June 2021 to deliver a refreshing blast of feel-good pop for the summer. 12. TOO, 'Count 1, 2' Created similarly to ZEROBASEONE on a singing-competition series, TOO was the extremely promising boy band that left K-pop too early, disbanding three years after and going through several member changes and even a name change. Toward the start of their career, the guys dropped this gem of a summer single with 'Count 1, 2' embodying the bubbly feelings of a summer romance told with a classic, feel-good pop chorus. Even after the group's disbandment, several of the members continue their careers in entertainment: leader Jaeyun is a soloist that goes as Jayn Lee, Woonggi landed in the group AHOF, Yeojeong re-debuted in NEWBEAT and Donggeon is acting. 13. In Real Life, 'Tattoo (How 'Bout You)' While western boy bands don't typically embrace the saccharine, ABC's reality competition series Boy Band saw celebrity judges Nick Carter, Emma Bunton and Timbaland create In Real Life whose debut single 'Tattoo (How 'Bout You)' was a true bubblegum-pop treat and reached the top half of the U.S. Top 40 radio charts. 14. NCT DREAM, 'Yogurt Shake' With NCT DREAM's concept aligning perfectly with Saja Boys' 'Soda Pop' style, we'd be remiss to not include one of their sweetest and best snack songs in 'Yogurt Shake.' The track's addictive 'yogurt shake, yogurt shake, yogurt shake for me' hook gets instantly stuck in your head and the guys always look like they are having the best time when performing it. 15. THE BOYZ, 'Lip Gloss' Another sweet summer single from the versatile act, THE BOYZ's 'Lip Gloss' feels like it could have actually been a Saja Boys single with handfuls of easily accessible hooks. Bonus: Wonho, 'BLUE' While we know Wonho isn't a boy band, he is a former member of Monsta X and crafted the irresistible summer tune 'BLUE' that sounds like it could fit perfectly into any group's discography but instead sees the superstar handling it all on his own. While you're enocuraged to get into 'BLUE' below, make sure you also check out Wonho covering 'Soda Pop' as well as Saja Boys' other hit 'Your Idol' in this special video on his YouTube that already has over a million views.

The bridesmaids and guests showed up, but she never walked down the aisle, and her dad had to break the news that there was no groom." —abbiemae107 2."During the reception, the groom's grandfather had a stroke and paramedics were called. The entire time, the bride was screaming, 'He ruined my wedding.'" —jilliankelly34 3."We were attending a wedding at a nice venue, and the groom came down during the reception wearing a full Spider-Man costume, did a weird dance, and essentially gave the bride a lap dance in the middle of the dance floor." "It was so uncomfortable to do/watch in front of both of their families." —atnat1 4."My uncle was getting married, but everyone in my family hated his fiancé. Right before their wedding, my grandma's (uncle's mom) phone died, and his fiancé had a charger."

It was humiliating." —terid614 11."This happened at a hotel I worked at when I wasn't on shift: The bride was part of a well-known criminal family (seriously bad stuff).

Armed police had to end the situation, whilst staff were hiding under and behind furniture." —itsgoodtochalk 12."One of the groomsmen planned on asking his girlfriend of two months to marry him at the reception without asking the groom or bride beforehand.

She hasn't spoken to me since." —kaymivvh 14."The bride had a cell phone-free wedding. The ceremony was one hour because the bride was running late, and we put our phones in the basket prior to sitting.

I waited three and a half hours before I could get my phone and immediately left." —fromyouraccountant Related: 15."Didn't make it a bad wedding, but at my bestie's wedding, someone dressed up, pretended to be a guest, and tried to rob the cards that contained money. The groom is a cop, so he spotted him, and the police were called." —leaahhiggins 16."My cousin wanted a carnival-themed wedding with a limited budget. The DIY was impressive, but when I got there, my aunt (the mother of the bride) told me that my sister and I had the first shift running the cotton candy machine, and she forgot to tell me. Do you know how messy cotton candy is?" "I was churning out cotton candy to ungrateful guests when I looked around and noticed all of the family members were working carnival games and serving food to acquaintances of the couple. When I die, I have it in my will to make my cousin and aunt run a cotton candy machine at my wake." —thatlittlemom 17."My worst experience was my OWN wedding. We hired a restaurant to cater for 150 guests. Fewer than 100 people showed up. We told our caterers that a lot of people didn't make it, so they only served food once to our guests and took the rest home." "THEY rationed the food, and HID the rest from us! My husband and I didn't know this happened because we were too busy. Everyone just assumed we didn't pay for enough food." —orange_blisss 18."The groom said in his speech that the things he did in his past with his friends (us) were wrong and that he would be a new man now. We never saw him again." —mandydevisser 19."The couple had a Trump impersonator come and make a 15-minute speech IN CHARACTER, prior to the election.

Kid Cudi Marries Longtime Partner Lola Abecassis Sartore: ‘Next We Need This Baby'
Congratulations are in order for Kid Cudi and Lola Abecassis Sartore, who announced Friday (July 11) that they are now a married couple. Revealing that they tied the knot during a romantic ceremony in the South of France on June 28, the rapper born Scott Mescudi shared photos on Instagram and wrote, 'Man, I've been waiting for this moment my whole life.' More from Billboard Kid Cudi Reveals 'Truman Show'-Inspired Cover Art for Upcoming 'Free' Album: Here's When It Arrives Watch Justin Bieber Have a 'Sweet Spot' Dance Party With Sexyy Red in New Video Coco Jones Is Engaged to NBA Star Donovan Mitchell 'A truly special day with amazing [friends] and loving family,' he continued. 'I love this woman so so much, and I know she loves me in the same way. Its always a battle sayin 'I love you more' because she always wins that battle haha. My best friend. My ride or die.' In the snaps, Cudi kisses his new wife, poses with mom Elsie Mescudi and cuts into a massive, strawberry-covered cake alongside Sartore. 'Here's to starting a new chapter,' he added in his caption. 'To my baby Lola, we are in for a wonderfully fantastic journey together. Next we need this baby … not joking.' The musician first met the former Louis Vuitton designer — who now serves as head designer at ERL — at a Virgil Abloh fashion show in 2018. After years of dating, Cudi proposed in 2023. According to Vogue, the couple's ceremony took place at Cap Estel in Èze, near where Sartore grew up. The bride wore a gown designed by her close friend, Alain Paul, who also served as her 'bridesman' in the wedding. 'It was bliss,' Sartore told the publication of the big day. 'A moment out of time where the world stopped, and it was just the two of us. We forgot everything around us. It was just us and our love, and it was the purest moment.' Cudi's big life update comes just weeks after he made headlines for a much less cheerful reason: Sean 'Diddy' Combs' trial, at which the Trap star testified. While on the stand, he alleged that the disgraced Bad Boy Records founder broke into his Los Angeles home and vandalized his car out of anger over Cudi's past relationship with Cassie Ventura. Combs was ultimately found not guilty of sex-trafficking and racketeering charges, though he will face prison time for a prostitution charge. The mogul has long denied all of the accusations levied against him during the trial. In happier news, Cudi is also gearing up to release his next album, Free, on Aug. 22. So far, he's released two singles from the project: 'Grave' and 'Neverland.'
