Well, hold onto your tea, because it seems our favorite pop princess just dropped a jaw-dropping $60,000 on a city permit for her wedding at Madison Square Garden. Yes, you heard that right—sixty grand for the privilege of saying ‘I do’ without the hassle of NYC traffic. After all, who wants their big day marred by a tangled mess of cabs and buses?
Sources say that when she said ‘I do’ to a certain football star, they wanted to make sure their A-list guests could glide in without a hitch. I mean, can you imagine the stress? And as if that weren't enough, she also shelled out about $4,000 for pizzas—because what's a wedding without a good slice? Guests were treated to some serious swag, including a gorgeous $6,700 handbag, Cartier watches, and even a vintage Chevrolet Chevelle. Sounds more like a celebrity carnival than a wedding!
Let’s be real: the venue alone reportedly set them back around a million bucks for at least three nights. So really, the $60K for that permit is just a small pebble in the expansive ocean of wedding expenses. I can’t help but wonder—after all this, is she taking a moment to breathe and practice some self-care amidst the post-wedding whirlwind? It’s all giving complicated, but I suppose that’s what love looks like these days.
