Lisa Ann Walter Slams Jeff Bezos as ‘Temu Lex Luthor’ at Met Gala Protest

At a Labor Is Art protest in New York, actress Lisa Ann Walter criticized Jeff Bezos’s involvement in the 2026 Met Gala. She accused him of hijacking an event meant to celebrate creativity for his own self-promotion. Walter called Bezos a “Temu Lex Luthor” who profits off pushing working people to their limits. She argued the gala has become a platform for wealthy influence rather than true artistry. This year’s Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art lists Bezos and Lauren Sanchez as honorary chairs, alongside co-chairs Beyoncé, Nicole Kidman, Venus Williams and Anna Wintour. Walter’s comments revive debates over corporate power in cultural spaces.
