However, Nicola Hickling, the Daily Mail's skilled lip reader, deciphered their coded whispers, revealing how, in certain respects, the glitzy elite are no different from us.
Hickling claimed that as Oprah stepped into the water taxi that would transport her to the opulent event, she seemed worried that she might fall since Tommy Hilfiger stumbled a little when he boarded the ship.
According to Hickling, Hilfiger, 74, told the man behind him, 'You can go after me.' However, he stumbled as he turned around. Kardashian family's strange boat moment
Khloe Kardashian, who was there at the wedding on her birthday, was afraid she could 'tumble' as she and her sister Kim aboard one of the boats.
The founder of the cosmetics company, as per the lip leader, asked her elder sister if they could 'go together' before tripping, suggesting that their younger sisters, Kendall and Kylie Jenner, were also having difficulties.
'Let's hold hands and go together,' Kylie suggested, turning to face Kendall.
The model responds, 'Want me to go?' Kylie moves aside to give her space.
Kylie staggered a little when she got onto the taxi boat and then cried out, 'Uh oh!'
Before boarding, Kris remarked, 'Tell them I said thanks,' and used the porter's paper towel to wipe away any water that could splash at her.

In an exclusive interview with Vogue, Sánchez said, 'Some people meditate, I work out.' Explaining her schedule, the journalist stated, 'It's something Jeff and I do every morning. We have our coffee, we talk about whatever's going on and then we go to the gym.'
