Lauren Sanchez recreates iconic ‘flirting’ meme with Leonardo DiCaprio and Jeff Bezos at glamorous NYE party

Lauren Sanchez was spotted creating her iconic “flirting” meme while mingling with her fiancé Jeff Bezos and close friend Leonardo DiCaprio at a glamorous NYE ​​party on Tuesday.

In 2021, a video was shared on Twitter of the former journalist, 55, looking “thirsty” for the Oscar winner at a gala with Bezos, 60, right next to her.

She was seen flashing a bright smile as she stared at DiCaprio in the latest clip – prompting the Amazon CEO to issue a humorous warning to the Hollywood star.

At the time, Jeff uploaded a photo of himself standing next to a sign that read “Danger! Steep cliff, fatal fall,” and wrote in the caption, “Leo, come here, I want to show you something…”

Three years later, the trio was spotted together again in a similar pose as they performed together at St. Barth’s in the Caribbean in 2025.

While standing outside, Sanchez was seen looking at Leonardo, while Bezos stood in the middle between the pair.

But the group apparently had a light-hearted conversation, and at one point the Titanic star put a hand on Jeff’s shoulder as they laughed.

Lauren dressed for the occasion in a figure-hugging mini dress that hugged her body and had a hem that stopped a few inches above her knees.

Her long, dark locks were parted in the middle and flowed effortlessly straight down her shoulders.

She completed the look for the big night by wearing nude pumps to match the color scheme of her outfit.

Sanchez and Bezos – who got engaged in May 2023 – were spotted sharing a kiss after DiCaprio returned to the party.

The Wolf Of Wall Street actor opted for an all-black ensemble that consisted of black pants and a black button-up and cap on his head.

Jeff kept it casual by wearing a patterned shirt and black pants for the special New Year’s Eve celebrations.

Leonardo’s girlfriend and supermodel, Vittoria Ceretti, was also seen joining the group at one point in a black halter-style dress.

The star-studded group started their evening with a bite to eat at the Eden Rock Hotel and watched fireworks at midnight.

They then headed to the Gyp Sea Beach Club in St. Barth’s for a late night party, which featured Swedish House Mafia playing a set for the guests.

The festivities didn’t stop there, however, and the group left the beach around 3am before stopping at an after-party hosted by businessman Richie Akiva.

They were later seen leaving the bash around 7am. before returning to a lavish yacht to catch up on some rest.

Bezos and DiCaprio have been friends for years and have been seen together before, including during a summer vacation to Sardinia in August 2024.

Earlier in the day on New Year’s Eve, Sanchez was seen soaking up the sun on Jeff’s $500 million yacht with her ex, Tony Gonzalez.

The former couple previously dated until their divorce in 2002, but the pair have remained close friends, and also share son Nikko, 23. Tony has since moved on and married October Gonzalez in 2007.

On the spacious boat off the coast of St. Barth’s, Lauren wore a skimpy bikini with gold and black patterns.

She also wore fashionable sunglasses and put a large sun hat on her head.

During the relaxing outing on the yacht, we particularly saw customs officials arrive to inspect the boat. The officials searched the ship for approximately three hours and also spoke to both Lauren and Tony.

However, a source stated that the inspection was simply ‘routine’, but what prompted the search is not known.

Bezos was not seen on the boat at the time, but later joined his fiancée, as well as DiCaprio and Ceretti for the New Year’s celebration.

The Amazon CEO and Lauren first became romantically involved in 2019 and got engaged in May 2023.

Late last November, Sanchez briefly discussed the wedding plans during an interview on Today.

‘Very excited about it, thinking about the dress. I have to say that I do have a Pinterest. I’m just like any other bride,” she said.

‘At 54 – I’m turning 55 – I never thought that I would become an author, that I would get married. I mean, life is just beginning.”

Late last year, claims emerged that Lauren and Jeff were planning to tie the knot at a $600 million Christmas wedding in Aspen.

However, Bezos contacted The old saying ‘don’t believe everything you read’ is truer today than ever before.”

“Now lies can travel around the world before the truth can put on its pants,” the businessman added.

‘So be careful out there people and don’t be gullible. It will be interesting to see if all the media that ‘covered’ and re-reported this issue will make a correction if it comes and goes and doesn’t happen.’

The Amazon CEO popped the big question to Sanchez in May 2023 with a $2.5 million ring aboard his lavish yacht, after about five years of dating.

After she said yes, the couple eloped for an engagement party that took place in Italy.

Leonardo and his girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti were also spotted in St. Barth’s over the New Year’s holidays.

Before joining Lauren and Jeff to ring in 2025, the couple was seen playing a game of pickleball on the sandy beach this past weekend.

The supermodel showed off her toned figure in a light gray bikini and a black wrap skirt with white polka dot detailing.

The actor dressed in a plain white shirt and black shorts as he enjoyed the game.

The Hollywood star and the Italian-born model first became romantically involved in August 2023.
