There is something wholesome and delightful about the friendship between Selena Gomez and her Only Murders in the Building co-stars Steve Martin and Martin Short. But to hear Short tell it, that camaraderie was nearly shattered in September when the veteran comedian committed what might be the ultimate wedding faux pas at the nuptials of Gomez and music producer Benny Blanco.
During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Wednesday night (Jan. 21), Martin, 75, said the couple’s wedding was “perfect, it was beautiful… Everything was perfect, except, the night of the reception. it was a big, big party, imagine a stage, dance floor, musicians.”
At the back of the tent Short was seated at a table with a group of 12 Only Murders cast and crew when he noticed a “small” wedding cake by their section. “I just assumed there was a wedding cake for each section in the back. So, after a few hours, they haven’t cut their wedding cake yet, Steve [Martin] said he’s gonna leave,” Short explained. “I was like, ‘Oh, wait.’ Maybe I’d had a cocktail, I don’t know. I had a fork in my hand. I said, ‘Steve, you can’t leave yet without a piece of wedding cake!’ and I cut the wedding cake one side, cut it the other, and then all the people in our group screamed, ‘Marty!’ It was the wedding cake. I tried to fix it with a fork.”
Kimmel then posted a photo of the prematurely cut cake, including the hack job Short did while trying to do some frosting surgery to cover up his misdeed.
Short said the premature cake cut left Martin, “stunned,” as he turned to fellow guest and former Murders co-star Paul Rudd and wondered, “‘So, do we just leave?'”
The good news is that the couple’s wedding coordinator and chef rushed over and “did surgery” on the cake, joking that they made the dessert a true “Hollywood wedding cake in that it was beautiful, but now it had a little work done.” And while Short and Martin agreed to not keep the cake catastrophe a secret to allow Gomez to enjoy her big night, she found out and gave as good as she gets from the rarely serious duo.
“I kept saying, ‘No, guys, we can’t let Selena know,’” Short said. “And Steve said, ‘Yeah, maybe we tell her in a month or something.’ And then as I was leaving, Selena came by [and said], ‘Hey Marty, I heard you tried to eat my cake.’”
Short had nothing but high praise for the couple, saying it is “such a great thing” to attend a wedding where you “just know that these people are perfect for each other. You know, Selena is like an extra child of mine. I adore her so much. And she found this guy, and he’s the greatest guy, and they have the greatest hang, and they’re wildly in love.”
