Bill Clinton: Chelsea's Multi-Million Dollar Wedding Was My "Economic Stimulus" (VIDEO)
Former President Bill Clinton was the guest on 'The Daily Show' (weeknights, 11PM ET on Comedy Central). During his appearance, Pres. Clinton discussed his daughter's extremely lavish wedding -- which took place this past summer. Estimates for the cost of the marriage ceremony were between $3 and $5 million. The price tag for Chelsea Clinton's wedding cake alone was around $11,000, and about $500,000 was spent on flowers. Wow.Pres. Clinton called the ceremony his "contribution to the economic stimulus," adding that he was surprised "the unemployment rate didn't drop" after the marriage took place. On a more serious note, the former President said the wedding was a major passage in his life, and that it made him feel like Chelsea was fully grown up.
Jon Stewart congratulated former Pres. Clinton, and said that he would have RSVPed for the event, except for the minor part where he wasn't "actually invited." Aw! Don't feel too bad, Jon. President Obama wasn't invited either. Still, it would have been nice to get to go, just to see what an eleven thousand dollar cake actually looks like.
