Greg James, the Radio 1 DJ, has taken a playful swipe at Leonardo DiCaprio after confirming he received an invitation to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding, while the Oscar-winning actor did not. The wedding, held on Friday, July 3, at Madison Square Garden in New York, was the most talked-about event of the year, drawing criticism for shutting down parts of the city during the busy July 4th weekend.
Celebrity Guests and Performances
The guest list included Hollywood actor Bradley Cooper, NFL star Tom Brady, a performance by Sir Paul McCartney, and Adam Sandler officiating the ceremony. However, DiCaprio was notably absent, and James couldn't resist teasing him about it.
James and DiCaprio both attended the World Cup match between Norway and Brazil at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. When a fan asked James on Instagram, "How'd it feel to be possibly one of the only people in that stadium that went to Taylor Swift's wedding?" James replied, "Really great actually thanks for asking. Particularly good because Leonardo DiCaprio was at the match looking all smug there in a hospitality box but wasn't at the wedding. That's showbiz, Leo!"
James's Secrecy and Confirmation
James had refused to confirm his attendance before the wedding, with reports that all guests were required to sign a non-disclosure agreement imposed by the couple. He secretly flew to New York after interviewing Swift on Radio 1 last year. Rumors swirled, and even his colleagues pressed him for details.
After the wedding, James posted a photo of a large slice of pizza on Instagram, writing, "I am currently experiencing the world's greatest hangover and unable to reply to the hilarious number of messages I have received over the last 24 hours. But just to say: True to her word, of course the invitation arrived, and of course I couldn't tell anyone. And oh my God, what an unbelievably brilliant night. I'm off for a nap."
World Cup Attendance
James described his weekend as "insane" after attending the World Cup match, where he spotted DiCaprio in a hospitality box. The DJ's quip about DiCaprio's absence from the wedding has garnered significant attention online.
