Billionaire Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez’s recent highly extravagant wedding in Venice attracted a huge array of superstars including Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey, the Kardashian-Jenner family, Leonardo DiCaprio, Usher, Tom Brady, just to mention a few.
But it appears legendary singer Mariah Carey is not too concerned about the star-studded wedding as she gave a straight three-word answer when a paparazzo asked about her absence.
“I wasn’t there,” the Always Be My Baby singer answered as she was heading out to dinner in Los Angeles on July 5, E! Online reported.

Carey also took the high road when the photographer asked her if Bezos and Sánchez invited her to their wedding, downplaying the likelihood of a dispute. “Oh, don’t turn this into that,” the 56-year-old said.
The We Belong Together singer’s three-word response brings back memories of the “I don’t know her” answer she gave when she was asked about Jennifer Lopez. And though Carey’s response triggered the creation of memes, she later explained that she wasn’t actually throwing shade.
“I really was trying to say something nice or say nothing at all,” she said in a 2018 interview with Pitchfork. “I really was.”
Carey’s recent response to Bezos’ wedding comes after she recently said she doesn’t recognize the passage of time and birthdays, Face2Face Africa reported. The 56-year-old made those comments during an appearance on UK radio station Capital FM.
Asked by the show’s co-hosts Jordan North, Chris Stark, and Sian Welby to expatiate on that, Carey said, “I just don’t believe in it,” CNN reported. Carey was also asked if she was referring to time zones, to which she said, “No, just time.”
“So no clocks?” Welby asked the Endless Love singer. “Just not into that?” Carey responded in the affirmative. “No, just let it go,” she added.
The Grammy-winner also revealed she’s not into birthdays. “I don’t have a birthday, no,” she revealed. When Stark pondered on how she arranges meetings and appointments, Carey said she “would have someone call you and figure it out.”
