Leonardo DiCaprio makes low-profile appearance at Lauren Sanchez’s Paris dinner party in a hat and face mask

BBG News

This week in Paris, France, Leonardo DiCaprio made an effort to maintain a discreet exit from the dinner party hosted by Jeff Bezos’ new spouse, Lauren Sanchez.

Just over a fortnight ago, the Oscar-winning individual, aged 50, faced criticism as a ‘hypocrite’ following their attendance at the lavish $20 million Italian wedding of a billionaire pairing. However, a new sighting has emerged now.

Leonardo DiCaprio faced heavy criticism on social media due to his apparent attempts to avoid photographers at his friend’s three-day wedding, as he kept his hat pulled down low, concealing his eyes and nose.

On Tuesday evening, the actor who played on the Titanic repeated a similar move when pictures emerged showing him exiting the exclusive Le Laplace restaurant.

In a laid-back, all-black ensemble, Leonardo DiCaprio’s well-known visage was only partially discernible beneath an N95 mask and a dark baseball hat, which he adjusted to shield his eyes.

Excited fans watched as the actor was escorted to a nearby SUV by a well-dressed bodyguard.

Instead of DiCaprio’s girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti, who was his date for the contentious wedding of Sanchez and Bezos, was conspicuously absent from his side.

Leonardo DiCaprio departed just prior to Sanchez, the captivating host who attracted photographers with her striking appearance in a vibrant red Versace latex gown.

The recently married Mrs. Bezos, aged 55, completed her chic outfit by styling her hair smoothly and straightly, and accessorized with a luxurious black Hermès Kelly bag, often fetching more than $50,000 in second-hand sales.

Also in attendance was Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue model Brooks Nader.

At Sanchez’s gathering, the runway expert, aged 28, exuded equal amounts of elegance. She chose a completely see-through black halter top, which revealed quite a bit, and a pair of black capri trousers.

The dinner coincides with the start of Paris Fashion Week, which runs from July 7 to the 10.

This event seemed to be the initial appearance of Sanchez since her wedding with Amazon’s founder Bezos, aged 61, took place in Venice, Italy just recently.

The extravagant celebration, where not just the wedding itself was showcased but also various themed gatherings like parties and brunches, witnessed them being in the company of 200 loved ones, such as DiCaprio and Brooks.

Notable figures such as Kim Kardashian, Ivanka Trump, Kris Jenner, and Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates graced the event with their presence.

According to The Guardian, over 90 jets flew into the airport in the romantic city.

At their special occasion, I had the pleasure of witnessing Ellie Goulding’s enchanting performance. The following day, a pajama-themed brunch unfolded, where the remarkable R&B sensation, Usher, took center stage and serenaded us with his soulful melodies.

In a beautifully renovated amphitheater on an island, the joyous pair exchanged their vows. Sánchez adorned a stunning high-necked, long-sleeved lace gown by Dolce & Gabbana, which took over 900 hours of skilled workmanship to create, according to Vogue.

Yet, the wedding faced strong opposition from local residents who congregated in St. Mark’s Square, the renowned centerpiece of Venice, to demonstrate throughout the three-day ceremony.

The following topics received criticism: excessive tourism, the amount of tax paid by Bezos, and his environmental footprint.

It came as a surprise to many of his supporters, given that Leonardo DiCaprio identifies as an environmentalist and climate activist, that he was present at Jeff Bezos’ wedding ceremony.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I must confess that my recent snapshot – sporting a casual low baseball cap alongside a formal tuxedo while boarding a water taxi – has stirred quite the buzz. Fans have playfully criticized this unique wedding ensemble of mine, labeling it as eccentric and intriguing.

Is it possible that Leo is attempting to conceal himself due to feeling awkward about being spotted in that location? Or perhaps the question is if he, who claims to be an advocate for climate change, has sold out?

‘Leonardo DiCaprio we can still see you…,’ another added.

Criticizing Leo for his apparent inconsistency, one supporter posted on Twitter: ‘Leo offers wise guidance but seems to not practice it himself. I wonder if there’s a term for that…’

In response, certain social media users defended DiCaprio by attempting to clarify his distinctive fashion decisions.

The fan suggested that he usually dresses casually unless for a major event or publicity, implying that he might not want to be recognized or approached by the public. If I were famous, I’d do the same. However, they found it distasteful that he attended such an event regardless of his intentions.

In the days following his wedding, DiCaprio encountered more criticism as he refocused on his environmental activism, having previously indulged in lavish parties alongside the world’s richest individuals.

On Instagram, the celebrity shared an announcement that the Chilean island named Guafo has recently been secured for protection.

In addition to posting a photo of the island, Leonardo clarified that a private individual has bought it. Consequently, the island is now safeguarded against activities such as coal mining, timber logging, and other harmful industries.

The region will additionally be designated as a national park, and moreover, the author emphasized that Guafo Island plays a crucial role in preserving global biodiversity and maintaining the well-being of our planet as a whole.

DailyMail.com reached out to DiCaprio’s rep for comment but never heard back.

DiCaprio mentioned that the islands are home to ‘thriving communities of seabirds’ and they are also known for their Magellanic Penguins and a thriving population of Endangered Sea Otters.

Previously, he’s been transparent about his activism, and just a few months back in March, he criticized the Australian government led by Albanese for approving the expansion of a mine in Western Australia.

On Reddit, some social media users accused Leonardo DiCaprio of being insincere following his trip to Italy for the Bezos-Sanchez wedding, despite his criticism of Amazon’s large carbon footprint.

One wrote, “Leo is an outstanding actor, yet I’ve always found it hard to believe the stories about his concern for the environment.

It was stated that ‘He presents himself as eco-friendly, but in reality, he uses private planes and yachts. Leonardo DiCaprio has often been seen as a hypocrite and pretender.’

As an avid eco-enthusiast, I firmly believe that constant use of a personal jet and yacht for travel is a clear disregard for our planet’s wellbeing. Such individuals seem more focused on maintaining their lavish lifestyle, rather than encouraging energy conservation among the rest of us.

Another supporter commented, ‘The affluent or well-known believe their impact on others exceeds the harm they inflict personally. It’s as if they have a carbon-neutral status, riding on the shoulders of others’ personal sacrifices.’

‘Wow. But he’s always been a hypocrite about environmentalism,’ one additionally penned.

The impact of a single individual’s year-long recycling efforts being cancelled out by a private jet trip (likely several trips to reach this gathering) leaves me feeling disillusioned and weary, indeed.

It is not known if DiCaprio took a private jet to the Bezos-Sanchez wedding.

DiCaprio has often been vocal about the environment and climate change.

Towards the end of last year, he prominently awarded the 2024 Hilton Humanitarian Prize to Amazon Frontlines at an extravagant ceremony.

Before reaching his 50th birthday milestone, the celebrity also wrapped up eco-friendly improvements on his home situated in the Hollywood Hills.

He has established his own foundation in response to the pressing issue of our planet, encompassing escalating climate change, alarming species extinction, and growing health concerns stemming from pollution, as stated on the foundation’s official site.

In 2022, the individual who won an Oscar looked back and discussed the impact of global warming during a conversation with Deadline.

In the course of my life, I’ve nurtured two profound loves: performing on stage and preserving the pristine beauty of our planet, while advocating for climate change awareness. For the past two decades, I have been running a foundation dedicated to these causes.

Later on, he expressed his thoughts as follows: “There seems to be a global unease concerning the slow pace at which powerful entities, including the private sector and governments, are transitioning. In reality, we only have approximately nine years left.

Although the star is recognized for his environmental activism, there have been instances when he’s faced criticism in the past too.

In January this year, he and his supermodel partner traveled on a private plane to Mexico, while the dangerous wildfires were raging in Los Angeles.
