Lauren Sánchez Bezos had the internet buzzing when she arrived at a state dinner at the White House.
The 56-year-old former journalist attended the dinner with her husband, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, in honor of Chinese President Xi Jinping, in a form-fitting, off-the-shoulder black dress with a plunging neckline.
She teamed the look with diamond earrings and a statement large diamond necklace.
Many X users took issue with Lauren’s choice, criticizing her for showing too much cleavage at such a high-profile event, with some even questioning why they were there at all.

“Who else doesn’t care and thinks she should wear whatever she wants?!!!” » asked one user. Another added: “She looks stunning and Jeff is so lucky to be her husband.”
“She’s come a long way since she was an entertainment reporter at the local Los Angeles news station,” wrote a third. “Good for her.”
This isn’t the first time Lauren has sparked controversy with one of her outfits, as she also received criticism for the outfit she wore to President Trump’s inauguration in January 2025.
She wore a white Alexander McQueen pantsuit featuring a fitted, satin-trimmed blazer with a dangerously low-cut V-neck with her risky white lace bustier peeking out from underneath.
