Marcy Blum, a celebrity event planner who worked with Lopez and Rodriguez before their 2021 split, spilled the details on The Skinny Confidential Him & Her Podcast. Lopez had suggested Bruno Mars as a potential performer, but his $5 million fee for a 45-minute set left the “Let’s Get Loud” singer in disbelief.
“‘Don’t be ridiculous!’” Lopez reportedly exclaimed upon hearing the price, according to Blum, who admitted she didn’t sign a non-disclosure agreement for the planning process.

Mars, celebrated for his electrifying performances, often commands one of the highest fees in the industry, particularly for private events. However, Lopez and Rodriguez’s highly anticipated nuptials never came to fruition. The couple began dating in 2017, got engaged in 2019, and postponed their planned 2020 wedding in Italy due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The pair ultimately parted ways in 2021, with Lopez rekindling her romance with Ben Affleck later that year. Bennifer tied the knot in 2022 but are now heading for divorce, with Lopez filing in August 2024, citing “irreconcilable differences.”
Lopez shares twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony, while Rodriguez has two daughters, Natasha and Ella, from his previous marriage.
