Who's Who on Lauren Sánchez's Bachelorette Trip to Paris
On Thursday evening, Lauren Sánchez posted a black-and-white photo carousel of her and 11 other women, posing on the rooftop of the Cheval Blanc hotel in Paris. 'Forever starts with friendship, surrounded by the women who've lifted me up, illuminated my path in dark times, and shaped my heart along the way,' she captioned the snap.
'Forever,' no doubt, alludes to her upcoming wedding to Amazon founder Jeff Bezos. Since they got engaged in 2023, details about their upcoming nuptials have been sparse. But that hasn't stopped the world's tabloids from trying to find out.
So, as we wait for the most highly anticipated wedding of the year, here's a rundown on the notable women who attended Lauren Sánchez's bachelorette party. They run the gamut from world famous Hollywood stars to non-profit founders. All bridesmaids, perhaps?
Kris Jenner
The matriarch and manager of the Kardashian family (which includes Kim Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, and Kylie Jenner). The two have enjoyed a close friendship over the past few years: 'You are an amazing mom, fiancé, sister, daughter, and girlfriend, and I am so blessed to have you and Jeff in our lives,' wrote Jenner. 'We have made the most delicious memories together and I can't wait to make more!' she wrote on an Instagram tribute to Sanchez on her birthday in March 2024.
Kim Kardashian
The reality TV star and Skims mogul. 'Lauren and I are always sending DMs building each other up,' Kardashian previously told Vogue of their friendship. 'Every time there's a look that we like, she'll say, 'WOW,' or, 'OMG you look amazing.' She's such a girl's girl.' Kardashian wore Prada for the occasion.
Katy Perry
The chart-topping singer and Sánchez have enjoyed a close bond for several years—so much so that Sánchez asked her to be a member of Blue Origin's first female space flight. Currently, Perry is on tour—but it looks like she took some time off to attend Sánchez's pre-nuptial events.

Eva Longoria

Elsa Marie Collins

Natasha Poonawalla
A wealthy Indian businesswoman and philanthropist, who is the executive director of India's largest vaccine distributor. She recently attended the 2025 Met Gala in a custom look by Manish Malhotra.
October Gonzalez
Actor and wife of football player Tony Gonzalez, who is the father of Sánchez's son, Nikko.
Lydia Kives

Diary from Cannes: AI's impact on business, a stalled economy, and Disney's succession
As a journalist, you never quite know what you'll learn at a conference where top executives are floating around. Someone like me — the interested observer — is always paying attention to varying things on the ground: the watches execs are wearing (they say a lot), who's wearing health trackers (also says a lot), who's huddled in a corner talking shop, and what their body language is. And of course, what people are actually telling me. To that end, I return from a week at the Cannes Lions advertising and media industry conference. The best way I can describe this event is it's as if the World Economic Forum bought LiveNation and created a rebellious sister conference. By subscribing, you are agreeing to Yahoo's Terms and Privacy Policy This year, I saw and heard a bit of everything, including from NFL great Chad Johnson, who shared he lived in the Cincinnati Bengals' training facility for the first two years of his career to save money. I didn't expect to hear that. I also didn't expect to hear this from DJ Diplo: "I have sold my music catalog a few times. You can always sell and build more. I did a 75% sale like five years ago, and I already built another catalog that I want to maybe move again, because sometimes I'd rather have capital to invest in other things." Where is he putting that fresh capital to work? He said medical devices, fintech companies, and real estate. Suffice to say, this coming week I plan to weave more observations into my new show at Yahoo Finance called Opening Bid. I will debut the show live Monday through Friday from 9:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. ET in a fast-paced format. Excited to bring you the fire (i.e., stock analysis and big interviews). You can watch here or on our app, all major streaming platforms, and DirecTV. Have something you want me to discuss on Monday? Drop me a line today on X @BrianSozzi. In the meantime, here's a roundup of things that stood out to me from my chats on the beach. "Nothing is ever really off the table, and really, the mindset of what's possible is always encouraged." "What I would say there is what's important to us is that we are able to protect our users' privacy, their deletion rights, like we have policies that ensure that when users take down a post, the post is taken down. And so it's really important, and as we've said in our terms of service, that we have a conversation with folks who have access to our data because that's a commitment that we have in terms of our policies, and it's also to know how Reddit data is used." "If I were going to advise the new CEO of Disney, I would say stay close to Bob Iger for the first six months. Really take that apprenticeship to heart because Bob is an amazing CEO — very few like him. If you can just be at his side and look at the whole company ... but get close to Bob, sit by his side, and just learn how he does things." "Look, I'm a consummate optimist, and no matter how difficult it is out there, there are holidays that come. People want to be celebrating with their families. Santa comes every year." "I think it's harder than most people realize. And the interesting thing is, for the past five to 10 years, we have been putting them together — linear TV content creates the streaming content. Now all of that has changed." "I think people are being very intentional where they spend money. It's cyclical, right? So it happens, you know, things get better, and that comes back. What we have seen is that it happens every single time the same way." Brian Sozzi is Yahoo Finance's Executive Editor and a member of Yahoo Finance's editorial leadership team.

Woman Drops Out of Family Wedding and Instead Considers Giving $600, but Many Argue the Sum Is Too Much: 'That's Nuts'
A Mumsnet user has to back out of her relative's upcoming wedding because her child has a doctor's appointment She and her husband are considering paying the couple over $600 as a wedding gift Users felt the amount was far too much and suggested lower pricesA woman wants to give her relative a financial gift for a wedding she's no longer attending, but people fear that she is being overly generous. In a post on the popular U.K. forum Mumsnet, the woman detailed how a relative of hers is getting married 200 miles away on a weekday in a couple of weeks. She and her family planned to attend, but those plans have now changed. is now available in the Apple App Store! Download it now for the most binge-worthy celeb content, exclusive video clips, astrology updates and more! 'We had taken annual leave to be there and booked a hotel for the night before. Unfortunately we can no longer make it,' she explained, adding that her 2-year-old child now has a doctor's appointment on that date. The woman learned from her mother that the plates for the wedding cost $169 per person; now she's concerned that she needs to pay for her child's absence as well. She and her husband discussed giving over $600 and wanted feedback on whether this amount would be 'reasonable and would cover the cost of our absence and a good amount surplus as a gift?' 'We are not especially close to the relative and might see them once a year at a family event and I will usually send a a new year's/birthday message (and the relative will reply but never initiate),' the poster added. 'However we are very closely related (not parents or siblings but aunt/uncle/first cousin degree relations).' Users on the forum felt the generosity of the gift was far too much. 'That is an insanely large amount,' a commentator said. 'Wedding gifts are not based on how much the couple are paying for their wedding. That's an incredibly crass and unpleasant way to decide how much you are giving as a gift. You don't have to change how much your gift is because you are no longer going.'
