Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez blow off steam at Stagecoach after Blue Origin space flight backlash

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are saying “Yee-haw” to their haters.

The couple went out for a date night at the 2025 Stagecoach Festival in Indio, California. They have been facing criticism for their recent all-female space flight with Blue Origin.

Bezos and his fiancée were both gussied up in their finest western wear for the country music festival, photos reveal.

Amazon’s founder, aged 61, was seen in a black T-shirt and bootcut denim jeans. He completed his outfit with dark boots, a matching hat, and black sunglasses.

Sànchez was wearing a white romper along with cowgirl boots. She also had on a large dark jacket and a cowgirl hat while accompanying her partner, with whom she is set to get married in June.

The space flight took place earlier this month and quickly garnered some negative attention as many people — including stars like Olivia Munn and Emily Ratajkowski — criticized the effort.

In an April 3 episode of “Today with Jenna & Friends,” the “Greek” actress called out the “gluttonous” flight crew for making the expensive trip while there’s a lot of people who can’t even afford eggs.

“I know this probably isn’t the cool thing to say, but there are so many other things that are so important in the world right now,” Munn, 44, shared.

“If you wanna go to space, why do you need to tell us about it, you know?” Munn asked. “It’s just like, go up there, have a good time, come on down.”

Sànchez responded to critics of their 10-minute space mission in an interview with People last week, saying the negative remarks get her “fired up.”

“I would love to have them come to Blue Origin and see the thousands of employees that don’t just work here but they put their heart and soul into this vehicle,” she told the outlet.

“They love their work and they love the mission and it’s a big deal for them.”

Gayle King, who was also on the space flight alongside Katy Perry, NASA scientist Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen and film producer Kerianne Flynn, added: “Anybody that’s criticizing doesn’t really understand what is happening here.”

“We can all speak to the response we’re getting from young women from young girls about what this represents,” King, 70, said.
