Martin Short's wedding blunder: A hilarious yet embarrassing moment at Selena Gomez's celebration.
In a recent appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live,' veteran actor Martin Short, 75, shared a hilarious yet cringe-worthy story from Selena Gomez's wedding to Benny Blanco. Short, who co-stars with Gomez in the hit series 'Only Murders in the Building,' considers her family and was thrilled to attend the nuptials.
But here's where it gets funny and a little embarrassing. Short, a few drinks in, mistakenly believed there was a separate wedding cake for each seating area. So, when fellow actor Steve Martin was about to leave, Short urged him to stay for a slice. Short then proceeded to cut into what turned out to be the main wedding cake, causing a mini-uproar among the guests.
And this is the part most people miss: Short's quick-witted response. He tried to fix the cake with a fork, but it was too late. He joked that the cake now resembled a Hollywood star, beautiful but with a bit of 'work' done. This incident occurred just an hour before the cake was to be presented, adding to the hilarity.
Gomez and Blanco's wedding was a star-studded affair, with a grand setup including a stage, dance floor, musicians, and luxurious seating areas. The couple looked stunning, with Gomez in a custom Ralph Lauren gown and Blanco in a classic black tuxedo.
This story raises an interesting question: Should celebrities invite co-stars to their weddings? Some might argue it's a recipe for chaos, while others see it as a chance to celebrate with their extended 'family.' What do you think? Was Short's presence a blessing or a hilarious disaster waiting to happen?
