Tony Bennett scores Lady Gaga wedding gig

Singing at Lady Gaga’s wedding would likely be a pretty nerve-wracking prospect for even the most seasoned of young musicians, so it makes sense that the chameleon-like singer would go for someone who can handle the pressure. Enter pal Tony Bennett, who is reportedly on tap to croon at Gaga’s upcoming nuptials. “They invited me to do it, and of course I will,” he tells Page Six. “She’s marrying a very wonderful man, very talented and very handsome. I think he’s going to be highly successful in films. He’s a very nice person.” I hope that’s not his toast.

Now, you can accuse me of being cynical or unromantic, that’s fine, but I can’t help noticing that Gaga and Bennett, who released their “Cheek to Cheek” duets album last fall, are embarking on a tour next month. What a coincidence!
