Lauren Sánchez Bezos Trains With FDNY for Met Gala Prep, Drawing Online Jabs Over ‘Two Pounds’

The honorary co-chair framed the drills as a fundraiser for firefighter foundations.

Overview

  • Sánchez trained with New York firefighters in full gear days before Monday’s Met Gala.
  • She told Vogue she "probably lost about two pounds" from the session, which she called her most unusual prep.
  • She posted video of the visit on Instagram, saying it benefited the Leary Firefighters Foundation and the FDNY Foundation.
  • Her red-carpet look was a midnight-blue Schiaparelli gown inspired by Sargent’s Madame X and developed with Daniel Roseberry and stylist Law Roach.
  • The weight remark drew online mockery from commenters who called it water loss rather than meaningful change.
