Businesswoman, Emmy-winning journalist and now children's book author Lauren Sanchez – who you might also know as Amazon founder Jeff Bezos' fiancée – kicked off Oscars 2024 weekend on a glamorous note.
Accompanied by her billionaire husband-to-be, Lauren, 54, poured herself a sexy, figure-hugging gown for the Chanel pre-Oscars bash on Saturday night.
During the party the duo mingled with famous names including Kerry Washington, Lily-Rose Depp and Kristen Stewart, as well as Barbie stars America Ferrera and Margot Robbie, who rocked a wild feather and miniskirt look.
Complementing her look with glittering silver and diamond jewelry, strappy sandals and a pop of color with her neon pedicure, mom-of-three Lauren snuggled up to her fiancé, who looked stylish in a grey suit and black T-shirt.

While she did run the idea by her own kids, they’re probably not the target audiences for the children’s tome these days.
