Video of DiCaprio "conquering" Bezos's girlfriend goes viral with 18 million views
Jeff Bezos, for his part, joked about shoving Leonardo DiCaprio off a cliff in a weird shirtless tweet.
A six-second video clip starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Jeff Bezos, and his partner, Lauren Sánchez, is causing a sensation on the Internet.
In the video, Sánchez, 51, appears to adore the Hollywood star at a gala, while Bezos stands next to them - holding hands - as an extra. The seemingly intense conversation cannot be heard due to the background noise, but Sánchez's facial expressions and gestures seem as if she only had eyes for 46-year-old DiCaprio.
The video, which has already been viewed more than 18 million times as of Tuesday night (11/09/2021), was recorded earlier this weekend at a Los Angeles County Museum of Art event hosted by DiCaprio. .

The news anchor has been dating Bezos since 2019, after splitting from his wife MacKenzie Scott. On Twitter, the clip elicited numerous reactions, mainly amusing: "She is too old for Leo. You have nothing to worry about," a user consoled Bezos, 57. Another says, "Body language never lies." While others believe DiCaprio will likely no longer have an Amazon Prime membership in the future.

Bezos responds
Bezos himself also reacted - humorously - to the clip. "Leo, come here, I want to show you something ...", he tweeted. Below that, he posted a photo of himself bare-chested behind a sign that read, "Danger. Steep Cliff. Fatal Fall," he said. Sánchez herself kept a low profile. She wrote on Instagram: "A beautiful evening last night." It was a great event, she said, that will benefit important museum initiatives, exhibitions and programs for years to come.
