Lauren Sánchez and Leonardo DiCaprio's awkward moment at amfAR Gala sparks viral reactions again
Lauren Sánchez, fiancée of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, and actor Leonardo DiCaprio have once again found themselves at the center of attention after an awkward encounter at the 2025 amfAR Gala. This comes after a similar moment in 2021 at the LACMA Gala, which had already gone viral for its awkwardness.
At the latest event, a video surfaced showing DiCaprio approaching the couple at their table. As he leaned in, Sánchez appeared to go in for a kiss on his cheek, but stopped just shy of making contact, while DiCaprio placed his hands on both their arms in a seemingly playful group hug. This moment quickly sparked comparisons to their previous interaction, where Sánchez appeared unusually close to DiCaprio while Bezos seemed oblivious to the tension.
Fans wasted no time in commenting on the body language between the two, with one Instagram user remarking, 'Body language is screaming. Even billionaires love Leo!' The video gained traction online, echoing the viral reaction from the LACMA Gala, where the interaction was branded as awkward.
This wasn't the first time the internet had reacted to the pair's interactions. After the 2021 video went viral, Bezos responded humorously on social media. He posted a photo of himself next to a sign that read, "Danger! Steep Cliff. Fatal Drop," with a caption jokingly inviting DiCaprio to 'come over here, I want to show you something.' Bezos's witty response sparked even more playful comments from fans, further fueling the viral sensation.

Cardi B confirms romance with Stefon Diggs on Instagram amid divorce from Offset
Cardi B has officially confirmed her relationship with NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs via Instagram, sharing an intimate carousel of their Memorial Day celebration on a yacht in Miami. The couple, who have been linked since February after being seen together in New York and spending Valentine's Day side by side, appeared affectionate in a photo lounging on the yacht's deck. The post also included images of romantic gifts, such as bouquets of red roses and large teddy bears, suggesting a deepening connection between the Grammy-winning artist and the New England Patriots player. Cardi captioned the post 'Chapter 5 ……Hello Chapter six,' hinting at a new phase in her life as she navigates a public and contentious divorce from rapper Offset. Despite earlier reports last week claiming Cardi was upset with Diggs for allegedly flirting with bikini-clad women during the same yacht gathering, their latest Instagram update suggests the pair are on solid ground. This relationship milestone marks their first official confirmation following several months of speculation, including a courtside appearance together at Madison Square Garden during the NBA playoffs.

Stefon Diggs quotes Quavo amid Cardi B and Offset drama
NFL star Stefon Diggs closed out May with a cryptic Instagram post that's gaining attention due to ongoing drama between his girlfriend, Cardi B, and her ex-husband, Offset. Diggs, who hard-launched his relationship with the rapper at a Knicks game last month, posted a reflective message alongside a clip of Quavo, Offset's former Migos bandmate, saying 'wrap it up.' The timing of the post didn't go unnoticed, especially as tensions between Cardi B and Offset continue to escalate. Last week, Offset made headlines for reportedly seeking spousal support, prompting Cardi B to respond with a fiery Twitter Spaces rant where she expressed extreme frustration over their split. In her outburst, Cardi B said, 'I want you to die fcking slow… and while you die, n**a, you gotta think of me.' The explicit statement sparked renewed attention on the acrimonious divorce. Meanwhile, Diggs has also faced scrutiny after a viral boat video surfaced showing him surrounded by several women. Some of Cardi B's fans were quick to criticize the footage. However, the rapper appeared unbothered, reposting Diggs' recent Instagram Story to show public support. With both romantic and public challenges in the spotlight, Diggs' subtle use of a Quavo clip has added fuel to speculation about tensions between the exes and their new partners. As June begins, fans continue to monitor how the Cardi B–Offset fallout and Diggs' rising profile in the entertainment world will evolve.

Sydney Sweeney breaks silence on split from fiancé, Glen Powell rumors swirl
Sydney Sweeney has officially confirmed her breakup with longtime fiancé Jonathan Davino, while rumors about her and co-star Glen Powell continue to swirl. In a candid interview with The Times published on May 31, the Euphoria actress revealed she's single and enjoying her independence after ending the engagement. When asked if she was still planning her wedding to Davino, Sweeney simply replied, 'No.' She then confirmed the split, marking the end of their relationship that began in 2018. Davino had proposed in 2022, but their engagement quietly ended earlier this year. While Sweeney didn't address speculation about her possible romance with Anyone But You co-star Glen Powell, she did say she's thriving in her new single era. 'I'm learning a lot about myself, spending more time with my friends. And I'm loving it,' she said. Sources close to the star suggested that her busy career played a major role in the breakup. With multiple projects in the pipeline, including Euphoria and a biopic about boxer Christy Martin, Sweeney is focused on work. 'She's exactly where she wants to be,' a source told People, adding, 'They didn't split because there's no love, but because she's prioritizing her career.' Sweeney has also been sharing glimpses of her new lifestyle on Instagram—spending time with her new puppy, Tank, and enjoying downtime in bikinis between shoots—as fans continue to follow her next moves both on and off screen.
