Star Guests Head To Jeff Bezos And Lauren Sánchez’s Venice Wedding Amid Protests
The wedding of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez in Venice is moving ahead amid anger from locals in the canal city.
Oprah Winfrey has also been pictured in Venice, as have Orlando Bloom, Endeavor and TKO Group boss Ari Emmanuel and his wife, designer Sarah Staudinger, Brian Grazer, Barry Diller, Tom Brady, Kim and Khloé Kardashian, Kris Jenner and Jordan’s Queen Rania. The cost of the wedding has been estimated at up to nearly $50M, infuriating locals and activists who claim Amazon pays minimal taxes in European countries and point to Bezos’ use of his extreme personal wealth to effectively take over parts of the historic city, disrupting daily life. Yesterday, an effigy of Bezos holding on to an Amazon delivery box while gripping dollar bills was pushed onto the Grand Canal, with an AP video showing tourists watching it float under a bridge.
