Jeff Bezos' fiancée Lauren Sánchez's flirty interaction with Leonardo DiCaprio went viral for how awkward it is
It's always fun to see a little awkwardness between celebs.
If it isn't missed handshakes or public disputes, it's flirtatious attempts that don't quite land.
This time, it was Jeff Bezos' fiancée Lauren Sánchez and famous actor Leonardo DiCaprio who found themselves in the spotlight.
Sánchez's attempt to flirt with DiCaprio didn't go as smoothly as she might have hoped. But when you watch the viral clip, you might sympathise with DiCaprio in that you would've done the same thing.

At the 10th Annual Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) Art and Film Gala in 2021, Sánchez was caught on camera swooning over DiCaprio while standing between her boyfriend, Jeff Bezos, and the successful movie star.
In the seconds-long clip, Sánchez can be seen standing very close to the Titanic star, almost half-hugging him, with a beaming smile and eyes gazing up at his face.
Unfortunately for Sánchez, things don't die down fast on the internet. And three years later, the interaction is resurfacing on social media and still continuing to entertain others like it's the first time seeing it.
It's almost as if the Amazon founder, on the other side of her, isn't even there.
DiCaprio then appears to make a polite exit, pointing his finger in the air, just before Sánchez takes a step after him.
Accounts on social media have been all chiming in with their own comments.
'Get a girl that looks at you like Bezos's girl looks at Leo,' one user replied.
'Leo is about to lose his prime account,' another joked in response to the shared clip on YouTube Shorts.
Others were curious about what was being said between the two as no sound can be heard during the clip.
'This is the living proof that Looks beats Wallet,' wrote another.
Commenting on DiCaprio's type of woman, a user pointed out: 'No need to worry. Leo only dates women under age 25.'
Bezos himself even responded to the viral clip on X, then Twitter, on the day it happened. He posted a shirtless picture of himself and surprisingly ripped behind a sign warning: "Danger! Steep cliff. Fatal Drop".
The caption read: 'Leo, come over here, I want to show you something …'
Think it's touched a nerve.
