Recently, Jeff Bezos playfully told Leonardo DiCaprio off after he got on well with his girlfriend at the LACMA Art+Film Gala — an annual festival that honors filmmakers and artists.  

The Saturday, 9 November 2021 event is the 10th edition of the Gala. It was held to honor award-winning filmmaker Steven Spielberg and American artists Kehinde Wiley and Amy Sherald, who painted the official portraits of President Barack Obama and Michelle Obama, respectively, for the Smithsonian’s National Portrait Gallery in Washington D.C.

At the Gala, DiCaprio and Jeff Bezos girlfriend chatted closely, and the video of them talking and smiling went viral. In the clip, Sanchez flashed a big smile at DiCaprio, who co-chaired the event. While they chatted, Bezos stood silently by Lauren Sanchez’s side.

However, when the clip went viral and was watched over 12 million times, the billionaire who had nothing to say at the event had a lot to say on Twitter. Bezos uploaded a shirtless photo of himself, standing over a sign that reads, “Danger! Steep Cliff. Fatal drop,” and he captioned the photo: “Leo, come over here, I want to show you something.”

While Sanchez had some nice things to say about the event, she uploaded a picture on Instagram and wrote: “Beautiful evening last night at the @LACMA Art + Film Gala hosted by the amazing @1evachow and @leonardodicaprio. A huge congratulation to this year’s honorees @asherald, @kehindewiley and Steven Spielberg! An amazing event that will benefit important museum initiatives, exhibitions, and programming for years to come.
