Jeff Bezos cozyed up to fiancee Lauren Sanchez at Chanel’s star-studded pre-Oscar awards dinner in Los Angeles on Saturday.
The special dinner was held at the Beverly Hills Hotel just one day before the 96th Academy Awards, which will be held on Sunday, March 10.
The billionaire businessman, 59, and his glamorous partner Lauren, 54, who got engaged in May 2023 while traveling on his $500 million superyacht, put on a loved-up display as they posed for a sweet snap together.
Meanwhile, Kristen Stewart and Lily Rose Depp couldn’t contain their laughter as they caught up at the party.
They joined stars such as Joan Collins, Robert De Niro and Usher ahead of the awards ceremony on Sunday.

Kristen wowed in a black and white bralette top and a pair of white shorts from the luxury brand, which featured a black trim around the waist.
The Love Lies Bleeding star teamed the look with a sheer black blouse, which she chose to leave unbuttoned at the front.
Stewart also wore a pair of black ankle boots that offered an edgy flare, and also added a silver chain necklace as well as flashy rings for a final touch.
Her dark locks were partially combed away from her face, leaving loose strands gently falling on her forehead.
Lily-Rose Depp showed off her toned figure in a strapless pink cropped top that featured a series of stylish buttons down the front.
The Idol star also slipped into a low-cut skirt that featured different hues such as black, white, yellow and pink.
The daughter of actor Johnny Depp donned open-toed black heels that were secured with straps that wrapped around her ankles.
She held a small black Chanel purse in her hand as she flaunted her outfit during the photo shoot.
Depp’s hair was pulled back into a sleek up do that easily revealed a pair of mini silver earrings as well as a dainty necklace.

With just a few days until the 96th Academy Awards on Sunday, the show’s producers feel good about what they’ve put together.
The nominees are some of the best the Oscars have seen, including some true blockbusters like Oppenheimer and Barbie.
Ryan Gosling sings ‘I’m Just Ken’ during the show, as well as presenting alongside stars such as Charlize Theron and Melissa McCarthy.
There will be a live orchestra in the theatre.
And the ever-reliable Jimmy Kimmel is back to host the proceedings for the fourth time.
“We’re really excited about this year,” said Kimmel’s wife Molly McNearney, who is executive producing the show for the fourth time.
‘It’s a phenomenal year for movies. And we have good films that the home audience knows about, which makes our job easier.’
The producers were hired earlier than usual, which means they’ve had more time to plan and study past Oscars telecasts to try to figure out what works and what doesn’t.

One thing they’ve learned is that if the room is laughing, the audience at home is usually laughing too.
McNearney said they focus on jokes over big, highly produced comedy pieces. Kimmel will do his 10-minute monologue to start the show and will be sprinkled.
“I think a night that just makes people feel good is a win,” McNearney said.
“Our job as producers is to keep the good feeling going quickly because it’s a long show and we want to make sure people stay all the way through.”
Another thing that works: When the speakers are good and people feel invested in the winners.
