There’s a rumor that Jeff Bezos wants Lauren Sanchez in the new James Bond movie. Like, I actually believe that he would give her a cameo, but I doubt Sanchez will actually be a “Bond Girl” or whatever. [Jezebel]
I keep seeing all of this strange Gilded Age commentary. Y’all get that all of the characters have huge flaws and that’s what makes them interesting, right? [Pajiba]

    That ring is apparently 30 carats and worth 5 millions.
    It’s insane. And not even pretty. I can’t imagine she will be able to wear it out without heavy security, and she risks maiming one of her children with it… I really don’t get it. She could have the prettiest ring she could have imagined, and instead they went for gaudiest.

    That’s why I loved Meghan’s original wedding ring. I loved the yellow gold and side diamonds, it was gorgeous and elegant and timeless.
    This is just so vulgar.

      I’m sorry but that ring is HIDEOUS.

      Also, who the fuck wants to walk around with a ring worth that much? I’d always be worried about losing it or getting robbed lol.

    • SarahCS says:

      Yikes. Yeah it’s ugly and is 100% impractical. Nope.

      Just because you can doesn’t mean you should.

      I don’t know them, so I’m just guessing here: he gave her an asset that is worth 5 million, rather than a piece of jewellery. It could have been a house or a piece of art with a similar value. I’m sure it keeps its value in the long run, so not the worst investment. Kanye gave Kim blue chip shares for her Bday once. I mean, he could have sent her on a 10-min flight to space if he wanted a grand gesture 😀

        Not really. Diamonds depreciate tremendously. She would *never* get what he paid for it. There’s hardly a huge market for rings that size (and that gaudy).

    • Side Eye says:

      I agree. My goodness it’s vulgar. It looks like something a kid would find in the golden Easter egg at the annual Easter egg hunt. Wtf

      She’s a beauty though. Damn that ring is awful.

    • Becks1 says:

      i feel like he just walked into a store and asked for a five million dollar ring, no thought or anything into it beyond that.

    • Mustang Salley says:

      I know! My sister’s ring is almost exactly like Meghan’s (slightly smaller – she got it in 1985) with milgrain detail work on the edges – it is a copy of an antique ring 3 stone my sister saw and loved. And the yellow gold made it so warm & lovely.

      This just looks…fake. Reminds me of Jennifer Aniston’s hunk of stone. And, as it’s not my taste, I don’t care for the plastic talon fingernails – that really cheapens it for me. It’s a ‘you do you’ thing – it’s just not for me.

    So he proposed to the mother of his kids with a gaudy ice cube. Love story for the ages.

  3. FYI says:

    Look, if she wants to wear a stiletto nail, who am I to argue?
    But that manicure is … not good. If you’re going with a nude nail, then the nude part isn’t supposed to extend past your natural finger length. That’s just weird. They look really odd.

    The ring is ridic. Money doesn’t buy taste, I guess.

  4. Sasha says:

    Why does he look so different?? Fillers??

    I watched Georgina’s Netflix show. I don’t know but I ended up respecting her hustle and enjoying it. She’s shameless but I think she’s a good mother and she’s ride or die for him forever. I think he could have done a LOT worse honestly.

    • jais says:

      Age? I tend to think long-time outdoor sports players sometimes struggle with aging. Only bc even if they put on SPF it probably sweats off so quick! But people can fight that opinion if they want bc I’m just making a guess. Federer and Del Potro might be proof otherwise so idk. I wouldn’t be shocked if he was getting fillers but I’m bad at being able to tell.

  5. L4Frimaire says:

    That goose egg ring is ridiculous. The weight must crack her knuckles. Hopefully she’ll turn it into a pendant.

  6. Ricky says:

    Let’s not forget that Ronaldo is a rapist

  7. Sara says:

    That would make a beautiful pendant

  8. Nonartistic Diane says:

    Is Doja Cat still with Joseph Quinn? Does anyone know? Haven’t heard much about her lately.

  9. Jaded says:

    First of all I absolutely hate those long talon nails. Second, that ring is tacky beyond belief. I don’t care how many billions it cost, it’s gaudy and garish.

  10. Ann says:

    Does a little man pop out of that diamond and present another ring?

  11. fishface says:

    Wait till Mrs Bezos sees that someone else has a bigger ring than hers.

    Agree with the other posters – the ring is horrible. Give me a vintage ring any day and NO conflict diamonds or anything mined by children. I also don’t feel comfortable with the meaning and message behind engagement and wedding rings. Smacks too much of women being property.

    There are often two Bond girls per project, one is more fleeting…she entices and sleeps with him very early on before dying, betraying him, or whatever fairly shortly after, and the other is the main sidekick and love interest for the film. Very occasionally there is a third, who doesn’t really even count as a Bond girl, but gets a Bond girl name and memorable Bond girl-esque banter (Madonna in DIE ANOTHER DAY).

    While Lauren should get, at most, the third type, she will most likely get the first type, the disposable one, if he’s actually serious. But knowing Jeff Bezos, he might actually go for making her the lead.
