Andrea Bocelli is keeping it neutral when it comes to the ongoing feud between Kim and Kourtney Kardashian.
The Italian tenor has spoken out after his name was mentioned in Thursday’s episode of “The Kardashians” as Kim and Kourtney continue to accuse each other of copying their respective weddings.
As Kim’s decision to partner with Dolce & Gabbana continued to rattle the mom of three, Kim decided that enough was enough and listed some of the ideas Kourtney had taken from her for her own wedding.
The 42-year-old mentioned that Bocelli, 64, performed at both of their weddings — but added that he had performed at her 2014 wedding to Kanye West first.
“I got married in Italy. Am I saying you copied me by getting married in Italy?” Kim said in a confessional.
“Who performed at my wedding? Andrea Bocelli. Who performed at Kourtney’s wedding? Andrea Bocelli. You stole my f–king wedding country and my wedding performer. Andrea Bocelli is my favorite male singer of all time, but I’m copying her dolce vida lifestyle? Okay.”
On Friday, Bocelli took to Instagram to speak out on the sisterly feud.
“Dear @kimkardashian and @kourtneykardash, I’m so flattered that you both love my voice and I’ll always be happy to sing to you 😃,” he wrote on his Instagram Story. “But know that there’s a younger and far more helpful artist @matteobocelli who your mother @krisjenner knows very well. 😉 See you soon in Tuscany!”
Matteo Bocelli performed with his father at Kourtney’s wedding to Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker last year.
The feud kickstarted after Kourtney, 44, slammed Kim for partnering with the Italian fashion house just months after her Dolce-themed wedding.
Kourtney revealed she was deeply “hurt” by Kim’s decision to partner with the brand, saying the media mogul was “copying” her lavish Italian wedding.
“It’s almost like a greediness,” Kourtney said in the June 29 episode. “If I look at the photos from the fashion show, half of the time I’m like, ‘Is this my wedding?’”

“There’s no decency to ask me how I felt about her doing this so closely to my wedding,” she added in a confessional. “No one just gives a f—k about anything. It’s like the Wild West—like, ‘We’re just gonna take and do as we want. Whatever’s best for us.’”
Meanwhile, the Skkn founder didn’t understand why her “hater” sister wasn’t happy for her, claiming she “couldn’t have been more mindful” when planning the fashion show.
New episodes of “The Kardashians” air Thursdays on Hulu.
