Jennifer Lopez Performs at $6.7 Million Wedding with Trump Jr.

UPDATE: Jennifer Lopez has just performed at an extravagant wedding in Udaipur, India, for the daughter of billionaire Rama Raju Mantena, and the event has sparked significant controversy. The wedding, which took place over three days at the iconic Taj Lake Palace, reportedly cost a staggering $6.7 million, drawing in a guest list that included Donald Trump Jr.

The performance, which occurred on March 15, 2025, has ignited backlash, particularly from Lopez’s fanbase, due to her association with Trump Jr., son of former President Donald Trump. Many fans took to social media to express their discontent, questioning whether Lopez should perform for a guest linked to a politically divisive family.

Guests at the lavish wedding celebrated the union of Netra Mantena and Vamsi Gadiraju, a tech entrepreneur based in San Francisco. The couple’s wedding theme drew inspiration from the James Bond film “Octopussy,” filmed at the same stunning location.

Critics have pointed out that Lopez’s performance is problematic given her history of endorsing democratic candidates, including Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. Some fans argued that the media coverage misleadingly implies her endorsement of Trump Jr. by highlighting his presence at the event.

“You mean Jennifer Lopez performed as a paid performer at the billionaire couple’s wedding, where Trump’s son happened to be one of the many guests,” one critic stated on social media. “The insinuation is misleading.”

Despite the backlash, Lopez dazzled attendees with her performance, donning a series of striking outfits, including a semi-sheer black bodysuit. However, reports from Indian media criticized the wedding as a “sheer wastage of money,” raising questions about the ethical implications of such opulence.

The wedding festivities brought joy for guests like Trump Jr., who seemed to enjoy the occasion with his date, Bettina Anderson. Sources reported that the couple appeared more in love than ever, with Trump Jr. reportedly telling friends, “This is the woman I love.”

As for Lopez, her decision to perform at high-profile events has previously drawn scrutiny. In 2013, she faced backlash for performing for the former president of Turkmenistan, a move that was criticized amid accusations of human rights violations in the country. Lopez later stated that she was unaware of the human rights issues at the time.

As the dust settles on this latest performance, it’s clear that the intersection of celebrity, politics, and wealth continues to ignite discussions. Fans and critics alike will be watching closely to see how Lopez navigates the fallout from this high-profile gig.

What happens next for Lopez and her relationship with her fanbase remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: celebrity performances at extravagant weddings are sure to fuel ongoing debate about ethics and social responsibility in the entertainment industry.
