Celebrity stars Nicole Kidman, Beyonce, and Taraji P. Henson have faced criticism for supporting the Jeff and Lauren Sánchez Bezos-sponsored Met Gala, which is run by Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and his wife Lauren Sanchez, who have publicly aligned themselves with Donald Trump. Internet personality Meredith Lynch issued a video warning to celebrities attending the annual gala, warning them against wearing “ICE OUT” pins on their gowns or tuxedoes. Other celebrities, including Bella Hadid and Cara Delevingne, have also been criticized. Meryl Streep and Zendaya reportedly declined to attend the gala due to their involvement with the Bezoses.

There are also concerns about Amazon’s cooperation with ICE and its treatment of its workforce and its alleged treatment of immigrants by the company.
