Rosie O’Donnell isn’t holding back.
Just days after Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos tied the knot with Lauren Sánchez in an extravagant $50 million wedding in Venice, Italy, the former talk show host took to Instagram to trash the newly married couple over the “gross” event.
“The BEZOS wedding,” O’Donnell, 63, began on Monday, June 30. “It turned my stomach. Seeing all these billionaires. Gathering in the gross excess of it all. The show of it.”
She also criticized the star-studded guest list, which included celebrities such as Oprah Winfrey, the Kardashian-Jenner family, Leonardo DiCaprio, Orlando Bloom, Tom Brady, Sydney Sweeney, and many others.
“Is Oprah friends with Jeff Besos,” O’Donnell questioned. “Really – how is that possible. He treats his employees with disdain. By any metric he is not a nice man.”
The comedian went on to call Sánchez, 55, a “fake fem bot wife” before praising Bezos’ first wife, MacKenzie Scott.
Bezos, 61, and Scott, 55, divorced in 2019 after nearly 25 years of marriage. She walked away with $38 billion and a 4% stake in Amazon after the split and has pledged to give away at least half of her wealth.
“And his fake fem bot wife,” O’Donnell continued alongside “then and now” images of Sánchez. “Who looks like that. Why would he choose her. After the salt of the earth Mackenzie.”
“Sold his soul. Is what it looks like from here. The devil is smiling. At all his conquests,” the “Flintstones” actress concluded before directing her nearly 700K followers to her Substack blog.
However, O’Donnell, who moved to Ireland earlier this year with her 12-year-old non-binary child Clay, was not the only celeb to slam Bezos and Sánchez over their $50 million Italian wedding on Friday, June 27.
Charlize Theron also threw shade at the newlyweds during her fifth annual Block Party for the Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project over the weekend.
“I think we might be the only people who did not get an invite to the Bezos wedding,” the “Monster” actress, 49, said during the Los Angeles event on Saturday.
“But that’s OK because they suck and we’re cool,” she added, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Theron then thanked her audience for “taking the time to be a part of this, especially when the world feels like it’s burning, because it is.”
“Yeah, f–k them,” she concluded.
Katie Couric, 68, even called Sánchez’s Dolce & Gabbana gown “tacky” in a scathing social media post.
Meanwhile, other celebrities used Bezos and Sánchez’s lavish, multi-day wedding celebration to praise the billionaire’s “awesome” first wife.
“How awesome is MacKenzie Scott! (Jeff Bezos’ first wife and mother of his 4 children),” Mia Farrow, 80, wrote on Instagram Saturday. “As of mid-December 2024, she had given a total of $19.3 billion to over 1600 charitable organizations.”
“Truly incredible,” Olivia Munn responded, while Rosanna Arquette commented, “She’s a force of humanity and good.”
