Taraji P. Henson Slams Celebs Attending Bezos-Sponsored Met Gala: “WTF Are We Doing?”

Taraji P. Henson is censuring her fellow A-Listers for attending this year’s Met Gala, which is controversially sponsored by honorary co-chairs Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos.

The Empire actress co-signed a social media post from Meredith Lynch titled “a warning for celebs,” in which she cautioned those attending to not wear ICE Out pins given that Bezos is “part of the reason we’re in this f—ing mess.” While Lynch acknowledged the fundraising nature of fashion’s biggest night, she said it’s “wild to me that this event is sponsored by Jeff Bezos, who has backed Trump, who has slashed arts funding.”
