Supermodel Bella Hadid has sparked discussion online after appearing to take a critical stance toward the upcoming Met Gala, which is reportedly associated with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos as a lead sponsor.

The 29-year-old model drew attention after she interacted with a social media post on Instagram that criticised celebrities attending events linked to Bezos. The post referenced political and social concerns surrounding U.S. immigration enforcement policies and questioned public figures’ participation in high-profile events tied to influential business leaders.

Hadid’s engagement with the content quickly went viral, with fans interpreting it as a subtle indication that she may skip the 2026 Met Gala. Some social media users suggested she could be among several celebrities reconsidering attendance this year.

The reaction comes as the Met Gala faces increased scrutiny following reports that Jeff Bezos and his wife Lauren Sánchez Bezos are involved as major sponsors and honorary chairs for this year’s event.

The annual fashion gala, one of the most high-profile events in the global entertainment and fashion calendar, is scheduled to take place on May 4, 2026, at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.

Speculation has also grown that other major celebrities, including Zendaya, may reconsider attending, although no official confirmations have been made.
