Lauren Sanchez, 56, appeared subdued alongside Anna Wintour, 76, at a press conference for the 2026 Met Gala. Wintour, dressed in an eye-catching emerald green jacket and floral skirt, led the way as they took their seats. The couple, co-chairing the event with Wintour, reportedly spent $10 million to support the gala. However, their involvement has sparked significant backlash, with anti-capitalist groups urging a boycott of the event, labeling it 'The Bezos Met Gala' and criticizing worker exploitation. Celebrities like Bella Hadid and Zendaya have also expressed their discontent, with Hadid highlighting the ethical implications of attending a gala backed by Bezos, whose wealth is estimated at $224.2 billion. Despite Wintour's attempts to quell the controversy by praising Sanchez's contributions, public outcry continues, with some stars opting out of the event. The Met Gala, themed 'Costume Art,' is set for May 4 in New York City, with a dress code of 'Fashion Is Art.'
