US influencer Julia Chafe recently found herself in the spotlight following an unintentional incident involving actor Priyanka Chopra during the wedding festivities of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant. In a viral video that amassed 50 million views, Julia inadvertently interrupted Priyanka Chopra mid-conversation while engaging with Priyanka’s husband, Nick Jonas.
In an Instagram post addressing the incident, Julia candidly admitted, “I think I dissed Priyanka Chopra at Anant Ambani’s wedding. And I can not stop thinking about it. The video of me dissing has 50 million views.” She explained that her overwhelming excitement upon Priyanka recognizing her led to an impulsive reaction. “She was trying to tell me more, and I cut her off. It wasn’t meant to be a diss. Once Priyanka told me she knows me, my brain was just like one red alert,” Julia clarified.
Acknowledging her mistake, Julia expressed deep regret for her actions. She confessed, “As a super fan of Priyanka Chopra, when she told me she knows me, it was just too much for me to handle. Changing the subject to talk to Nick was more like a primal instinct. But in doing that, I dissed one of my favorite celebrities of all time.”
Julia continued her post with a heartfelt apology directly to Priyanka Chopra. “I was so excited to meet her and excited about my interaction with her. I blasted this video off to 50 million people. Looking back, I was literally being rude to her, so why did I do that? Priyanka, if you are seeing this, I never meant to be rude to you. I love you dearly and just know that I love you. And I’m sorry,” she conveyed sincerely.
The viral video captured Julia’s interaction with both Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas at the lavish wedding ceremony held on July 12 at Jio World Centre. Julia’s inadvertent interruption while speaking to Priyanka led to widespread perception of rudeness, prompting her to publicly address and apologize for the incident.
The wedding of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant was a highly anticipated affair attended by numerous celebrities, influential figures, and social media personalities, marking it as a significant event that inadvertently brought Julia Chafe into the spotlight for reasons she hadn’t anticipated.
