Jeff Bezos has given his wife the kind of gift only a billionaire can: a slice of the 2026 Met Gala.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art announced Sunday that next year’s fashion extravaganza will be “made possible” by the world’s third-richest man and his wife, Lauren Sánchez Bezos, who were named as lead sponsors, alongside secondary donors, Condé Nast and Saint Laurent. In their new role, the couple will preside over everything from invites to logistics and overall presentation of the event. I’m imagining couture gowns delivered in Amazon cardboard boxes, the red carpet streamed on Prime Video, and celebrities catapulted into New York on Bezos’s Blue Origin rocketship (okay, the last one might be slightly over-ambitious).
