A paparazzo shared a video of Jennifer Lopez arriving at the Udaipur airport to attend the wedding of Netra Mantena and Vamsi Gadiraju. The American singer and actor was seen waving at the paparazzi and greeting them with a flying kiss. The paparazzi seem to have mistaken her for Rihanna as they were heard shouting,“Welcome to India, Rihanna ma'am." She was wearing a long brown fur coat, along with sunglasses and black heels. J.Lo quickly moved to her car without posing for the cameras.
