  • American talent manager Guy Oseary and Brazilian model Michelle Alves renewed their wedding vows on October 24 in Rio de Janeiro.

  • Their Kabbalah wedding ceremony took place at the top of Christ the Redeemer.

  • Guests included Madonna, U2, Diddy, Cassie, Ashton Kutcher, Demi Moore, Chris Rock, Matthew McConaughey, Dakota Johnson, and Helena Christensen.



American talent manager Guy Oseary and Brazilian model Michelle Alves renewed their wedding vows at a ridiculously star-studded bash in one of the most extravagant settings in the world on October 24.

The couple first married in 2006, and are understood to have renewed vows this week in Rio de Janeiro.

The series of events began with a pre-wedding meeting for their A-list guests, according to sources on social media, and culminated in a lavish feast and reception party at the mansion of Brazilian TV show host Luciano Huck and his wife Angelica, an eyewitness told E Online.

The likes of Madonna and U2 — who were both managed by Oseary — Diddy, Cassie, Ashton Kutcher, Demi Moore, Chris Rock, Matthew McConaughey, Dakota Johnson, Helena Christensen, Owen Wilson, Anthony Kiedis, and Caetano Veloso were all in attendance.

And they were certainly taken care of.

The couple apparently hired out the exclusive five-star Fasano Hotel in Ipanema — which has unrivalled views of the iconic Dois Irmãos mountains — for their guests to stay at.

The ceremony apparently began at 5.p.m. at the top of the iconic Christ the Redeemer statue on Corcovado mountain, 2,329 feet up in the air, amidst the clouds and the mist — which made for a rather dramatic backdrop.

Oseary is Jewish, and the wedding party even managed to erect a chuppah at the high-up venue. It was a Kabbalah wedding, according to E Online.

She was later spotted guarding the Champagne at the reception — once she had swapped her floral dress for a Moschino jacket adorned with dollar signs.
