- 1:04Speaker 1: So low riders, let's get on into the latest, because listen,
- 1:10Speaker 1: we got some fashion things to discuss now. First of all,
- 1:14Speaker 1: we talked a bit about Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez, right.
- 1:19Speaker 1: We talked about their amazing wedding that went down in Venice,
- 1:25Speaker 1: and we talked about how you know, because Jeff Bezos
- 1:29Speaker 1: gets a lot of pushback because people, you know, there's
- 1:33Speaker 1: there's you know, people who feel like he should be
- 1:35Speaker 1: paying more taxes. There's people who feel like who feel
- 1:37Speaker 1: like he should be paying his employees at Amazon, or
- 1:40Speaker 1: there's people that feel a ton of things when it
- 1:43Speaker 1: comes to Jeff Bezos. But one of the things that
- 1:48Speaker 1: people cannot tell you is that this man is not rich.
- 1:52Speaker 1: This man is filthy rich loaded. If you if you
- 1:55Speaker 1: had to hear me say that to know that. I
- 1:57Speaker 1: don't know where you have been. But I saw a
- 1:59Speaker 1: headline and was reading a story the other day and
- 2:02Speaker 1: I'm like, man, this he is so wealthy, Like how
- 2:06Speaker 1: do you get that wealthy?
- 2:08Speaker 2: Like? How?
- 2:10Speaker 1: So there's been reports and I passage in a StyleCaster
- 2:14Speaker 1: a lot stidcaster is one of the fashion outlets that
- 2:17Speaker 1: I watched for fashion.
- 2:18Speaker 2: News and updates and things of that nature.
- 2:21Speaker 1: Stardcaster and a few other outlets, including Daily Mail and others,
- 2:24Speaker 1: are reporting that Jeff Basos is reportedly looking into buying Vogue,
- 2:29Speaker 1: and that he's looking into it as a wedding gift
- 2:33Speaker 1: for Lauren Sanchez, his new wife. Let me tell y'all something, okay.
- 2:39Speaker 1: Lauren sanche Haz has a background as a journalist. When
- 2:41Speaker 1: I first moved to LA, I remember she was working
- 2:46Speaker 1: for I don't even remember what the local was that
- 2:48Speaker 1: oh it was she was the co host of Fox's
- 2:51Speaker 1: Good Day La.
- 2:53Speaker 2: And I didn't know her, like, you know, like.
- 2:57Speaker 1: I didn't know a ton about her, but I just
- 2:58Speaker 1: used to see her because I would be doing carpets
- 3:01Speaker 1: and just different things in LA. But she's an Emmy
- 3:03Speaker 1: Award winning journalist and former news anchor. She actually spent
- 3:07Speaker 1: six years as that co host at Fox's Good Day La.
- 3:12Speaker 1: And then she people like to talk about the fact
- 3:14Speaker 1: that she also has a pilot's license. According to reports,
- 3:18Speaker 1: Daily Mail was actually told by a source that the
- 3:21Speaker 1: rumor that Jeff is going to buy Conde Nass, which
- 3:24Speaker 1: is the parent company that owns Vogue, is all anyone
- 3:26Speaker 1: is talking about in the fashion industry and inside of Vogue,
- 3:30Speaker 1: and the source told added to that while telling Daily
- 3:32Speaker 1: Mail that Lauren Sanchez is such an unlikely cover star,
- 3:36Speaker 1: and the word is that she landed the July issue
- 3:40Speaker 1: of Vogue, which is where you.
- 3:42Speaker 2: Know she did.
- 3:43Speaker 1: She did a whole wedding spread and Vogue when we
- 3:46Speaker 1: were talking about her wedding on one of the previous
- 3:49Speaker 1: episodes that I did here on the Latest with Laura
- 3:51Speaker 1: the Roza. Make sure you go and check out that
- 3:53Speaker 1: episode where we talked briefly about Jeff Bezos and Lauren
- 3:56Speaker 1: Sanchez's wedding. I was actually I used her vote Vogue
- 4:01Speaker 1: feature to develop my report that I did. They did
- 4:04Speaker 1: a whole spread on her from the fact that her
- 4:06Speaker 1: dress was custom made by Doce and Gobana, and you know,
- 4:09Speaker 1: they went into her love story and the story of
- 4:12Speaker 1: you know, her background, and there was like a full
- 4:15Speaker 1: photo shoot. It was it was listen, okay. And at
- 4:20Speaker 1: the time when I'm reading through this Vogue cover, I
- 4:22Speaker 1: didn't think.
- 4:22Speaker 2: Much of it. I think it was unnormal there.
- 4:24Speaker 1: Look, the source is telling Deli Mail that she's such
- 4:27Speaker 1: an unlikely Vogue cover star, But for me it made
- 4:31Speaker 1: sense because Jeff Bezos's wedding was the biggest thing that
- 4:35Speaker 1: happened that weekend, the weekend that they got married. I
- 4:40Speaker 1: mean every celebrity, Oprah, all of the Kardashian Jenner's, Tom Brady,
- 4:47Speaker 1: Orlando Bloom, Leonardo DiCaprio, everybody was at some of the
- 4:52Speaker 1: Trump family.
- 4:53Speaker 2: Everybody was at this wedding.
- 4:55Speaker 1: So to feature the bride of the wedding, and it's
- 4:59Speaker 1: Jeff Basos, like within his last I would say, I
- 5:03Speaker 1: feel like this started happening, that this shift started happening
- 5:05Speaker 1: in a pandemic where people have begin to make the
- 5:08Speaker 1: billionaires the new celebrity, like the Jeff Basos, the Mark Zuckerberds.
- 5:12Speaker 1: People were interested in their lives and what they're doing,
- 5:14Speaker 1: and who they're marrying, and you know all those things.
- 5:16Speaker 1: Jeff Bezos, I would say a lot more than like
- 5:18Speaker 1: a Mark Zuckerberg and others. But yes, so I didn't
- 5:22Speaker 1: think much of it when I was reading this article
- 5:24Speaker 1: to prepare for our report here for the latest of
- 5:26Speaker 1: Lauren the rose up. But basically this source is saying
- 5:30Speaker 1: the reason why that happened. Not only was his wedding
- 5:33Speaker 1: the hot wedding to talk about, but she may be
- 5:36Speaker 1: about to own and be leading Condonass, which Vogue is
- 5:40Speaker 1: under condinast. Now I also talk to you guys here
- 5:45Speaker 1: on the podcast about In a Winterur, you know who,
- 5:49Speaker 1: editor in chief of Vogue for decades. It's been decades
- 5:52Speaker 1: that In a Winter has been synonymous with the Vogue brand,
- 5:55Speaker 1: has decided to step down and do some other things
- 5:58Speaker 1: at Condonass. But you know, StyleCaster is reporting that Anna
- 6:02Speaker 1: Wintur is actually said to be directly involved with the
- 6:05Speaker 1: possible sale. The source says Anna it is said to
- 6:08Speaker 1: be the one brokering the deal. So that's why Lauren
- 6:11Speaker 1: was put on the cover. Anna has equity in the business,
- 6:14Speaker 1: so she has a lot to gain from the sale. Now, listen,
- 6:18Speaker 1: this might sound strange, but even Jeff Bezos, he is
- 6:20Speaker 1: no stranger to the publishing businesses either. In twenty thirteen,
- 6:24Speaker 1: he brought the Washington Post, and that was a big
- 6:27Speaker 1: deal because for a long time there was this huge family,
- 6:31Speaker 1: the Grand Family. I think it was like four or
- 6:33Speaker 1: five generations, and it was four generations of ownership at
- 6:36Speaker 1: the time that Jeff Bezos got in and purchased the
- 6:39Speaker 1: Washington Post. So it was such a big deal and
- 6:41Speaker 1: people just care about when billionaires do things like that.
- 6:45Speaker 2: Look, I don't know.
- 6:48Speaker 1: I think it's kind of crazy to receive Vogue and
- 6:51Speaker 1: Conde Nass. You know, then the brands under Conde Nas,
- 6:54Speaker 1: which I mean are huge media and publishing brands as
- 6:57Speaker 1: a wedding present. But Baby, when I tell y'all, Laurence,
- 7:00Speaker 1: if this is true, if this report is true, and
- 7:03Speaker 1: again I wouldn't be it wouldn't be strange for Jeff
- 7:08Speaker 1: Bezos to purchase a Kande n Ass because it's there's
- 7:13Speaker 1: always been something synonymous with billionaires and then wanting to
- 7:15Speaker 1: because they understand the power of media and how that
- 7:18Speaker 1: controls so much from stocks to culture, to business to everything. Right, listen,
- 7:24Speaker 1: I don't not believe it, but I haven't confirmed it.
- 7:28Speaker 1: Lauren Tanchas, I'm telling you right now, sister girl, for
- 7:31Speaker 1: all of your fellow journalist girls out here, we need
- 7:34Speaker 1: a book, Okay, we need the book on how to
- 7:37Speaker 1: navigate the sources and how to navigate, you know, to
- 7:40Speaker 1: the wedding rings. Because when I tell y'all, she she
- 7:44Speaker 1: has her polg's license, and baby girl landed this plane.
- 7:47Speaker 2: She did that.
- 7:49Speaker 1: And I'm not just talking about the fact that he
- 7:50Speaker 1: is rich I'm just talking about everything, like her wildest
- 7:55Speaker 1: dream I mean, I guess this has to do with
- 7:56Speaker 1: him being rich, but any of her wildest dreams have
- 8:00Speaker 1: now been able to become true because she met a man,
- 8:04Speaker 1: fell in love with a man. And I'm not saying
- 8:06Speaker 1: that she's just with him for the money, because that
- 8:08Speaker 1: has been a conversation around them, But I think that
- 8:11Speaker 1: conversation isn't loud and it doesn't last long because if
- 8:13Speaker 1: you look at them together, you can tell that they're
- 8:16Speaker 1: happy from the outside looking in as much as we
- 8:18Speaker 1: can anyway, but Jeff Bezos and her, every time they're together,
- 8:21Speaker 1: they seem like they're having a good time. It seems
- 8:23Speaker 1: like the people that are with them enjoyed them. I
- 8:26Speaker 1: remember there was a conversations about like Pete Davison and
- 8:29Speaker 1: Kim Kardashian hanging out with them and doing dinner with them,
- 8:31Speaker 1: and like they seem like a good time. I'm not
- 8:33Speaker 1: gonna lie to you, guys. It seem like a great time.
- 8:36Speaker 1: And it seems like they have a lot of fun
- 8:37Speaker 1: whenever they're on their vacations. And even though their vacations
- 8:40Speaker 1: get scrutinized because of the amount of money they spend,
- 8:42Speaker 1: you know, and this five hundred million dollar wedding seems
- 8:46Speaker 1: like Jeff Bezos is in good hands and that she's
- 8:48Speaker 1: actually there for the man and not the money. But
- 8:51Speaker 1: the money ain't hurting as we see now in other
- 8:56Speaker 1: fashion news, there are current reports that James Berkins are
- 9:00Speaker 1: did you know HERMS bag is going to sell for
- 9:02Speaker 1: ten million dollars? Now y'all are probably like, why do
- 9:06Speaker 1: I care about this Burken bag selling for this amount
- 9:09Speaker 1: of money? And why is it selling for this amount
- 9:11Speaker 1: of money? There are Burking bags everywhere, even though they
- 9:13Speaker 1: do appreciate in value, but this Burking bag is actually
- 9:16Speaker 1: the first ever Burkin to have been created by Hermes.
- 9:20Speaker 1: The bag was designed for the British actor and singer
- 9:23Speaker 1: Jane Burkin and it was used by her almost every
- 9:28Speaker 1: day from nineteen eighty five to nineteen ninety four, before
- 9:31Speaker 1: it became the ultimate symbol of luxury. So this was
- 9:34Speaker 1: before like when she was wearing the bag, this was
- 9:36Speaker 1: before the bag was like, oh my god, the Burken bag.
- 9:39Speaker 1: So this week the bag was sold by auction house
- 9:41Speaker 1: so the Bees in an online sale of notable luxury fashion,
- 9:44Speaker 1: including designs by Alexander McQueen and Christian Dior. The auction
- 9:49Speaker 1: house actually declined to provide an estimate of the original
- 9:52Speaker 1: Burken Bag to seeing it ahead of the sale. So
- 9:55Speaker 1: CNN is doing this report and basically what happened is
- 9:57Speaker 1: normally when an auction house, like you know, there's a
- 10:01Speaker 1: ton of these big auction houses that do like big
- 10:03Speaker 1: celeb memorabilia, right, and when these auction houses receive these pieces,
- 10:08Speaker 1: normally what they'll do is is they'll see information out
- 10:11Speaker 1: to media and say, hey, we're about to be selling this,
- 10:14Speaker 1: you know, the original Burken Bag Jane Burk and Wood
- 10:17Speaker 1: every single day from this time to this time, and
- 10:20Speaker 1: we're going to auction it for a starting auction price
- 10:23Speaker 1: of this. They might not give you the exact number
- 10:25Speaker 1: that they wanted to hit or where to exactly start,
- 10:27Speaker 1: but they get you close to a range because they
- 10:29Speaker 1: want people to begin to talk about it, so connoisseurs,
- 10:32Speaker 1: fashion collectors, archivists of these things can go out and
- 10:37Speaker 1: wait for it to hit the auction and then run
- 10:40Speaker 1: and come to buy it. But CNN is reporting they
- 10:42Speaker 1: didn't even want to drop the number that it was
- 10:45Speaker 1: going to estimate to sell at ahead of the cell.
- 10:47Speaker 1: But there was an advanced bidding that went crazy that
- 10:51Speaker 1: was breaking records. And this advanced bidding happened during a
- 10:54Speaker 1: live stream of the cell. Now, during the live stream
- 10:58Speaker 1: of the cell from reports, literally hear people gasping as
- 11:02Speaker 1: the bidding went higher and higher and higher, and it
- 11:04Speaker 1: only lasted for ten minutes. It was between nine collectors
- 11:07Speaker 1: and ultimately ended in a victory for a private collector
- 11:10Speaker 1: from Japan.
- 11:11Speaker 2: Whoo man.
- 11:14Speaker 1: There is so much money out here to be had,
- 11:17Speaker 1: so much good fashion out here to be had, so.
- 11:20Speaker 2: Much good marriages out here to be had.
- 11:22Speaker 1: Y'all just pray for me, Okay, pray for your girl,
- 11:24Speaker 1: because I need a mixture of all of the things.
- 11:26Speaker 2: I need a mixture of great fashion. You know.
- 11:28Speaker 1: I am working really hard every day to acquire my
- 11:31Speaker 1: wealth so that my family is good, and I pray
- 11:34Speaker 1: that all my husband as well, my husband to be
- 11:37Speaker 1: once we get there, y'all know what I mean. I'll
- 11:39Speaker 1: break that story here once that happens. But I don't know.
- 11:43Speaker 1: There's just a lot out here to be done and
- 11:45Speaker 1: a lot out of here to be accomplished. When I
- 11:46Speaker 1: see stories like this where we're talking about Ela Elamas,
- 11:51Speaker 1: wooh wrong, billionaire. When we talk about a Jeff Bezos
- 11:55Speaker 1: being able to even be in conversation or just thought
- 11:58Speaker 1: to buy a conde Ass or you know, someone buying
- 12:02Speaker 1: the original Burking bag for ten million dollars eight point
- 12:06Speaker 1: six million pounds ten million dollars, I'm like, Wow, I
- 12:11Speaker 1: got a long way to go, but I'm going I'm
- 12:13Speaker 1: on my way. So we'll keep up to date with
- 12:16Speaker 1: you know, if that sale of conde As is a thing,
- 12:20Speaker 1: because if it is, first of all, it'll be everywhere.
- 12:23Speaker 2: If that happens, the story will be everywhere.
- 12:25Speaker 1: But if it does happen, I would be very interested
- 12:27Speaker 1: to see what Lauren Sanchez does with the brand, because,
- 12:31Speaker 1: like I told you guys, she's worked at some outlets.
- 12:33Speaker 1: I even believe she was at one of the like
- 12:36Speaker 1: entertainment outlets too, la I believe it was like an
- 12:38Speaker 1: ET or Extra. Let me verify that one second. Yes,
- 12:44Speaker 1: Lauren Sanchez was that Extra as well too.
- 12:46Speaker 2: Yep.
- 12:46Speaker 1: So it'll be interesting because she does have the background,
- 12:49Speaker 1: and she has it's there and right now she is
- 12:53Speaker 1: a part of what we.
- 12:54Speaker 2: Are considering pop culture. We're here talking about her.
- 12:57Speaker 1: So we'll keep you guys posted and I will see
- 12:59Speaker 1: you in my next episode. I love it when we
- 13:01Speaker 1: do these fashion episodes because that is such a passion
- 13:03Speaker 1: of mine, if y'all can't hear it in my voice.
- 13:05Speaker 1: And you guys loved the episode we did about in
- 13:08Speaker 1: a Winterur and I was surprised, Like I had people
- 13:12Speaker 1: hitting me up about that episode, and I'm like, oh,
- 13:14Speaker 1: I didn't even You know, a lot of times people
- 13:17Speaker 1: aren't as invested in things as you think they are.
- 13:21Speaker 1: But I think when you talk about legacy names like
- 13:23Speaker 1: in a Winterur or a Vogue or you.
- 13:27Speaker 2: Know, even Burking bags.
- 13:28Speaker 1: Burking bags have become such a big thing of the culture,
- 13:31Speaker 1: people don't realize. And that's why I love pop culture
- 13:33Speaker 1: so much. That fashion, music, all of these things, right,
- 13:40Speaker 1: they intertwine so much.
- 13:42Speaker 2: It's like synonymous.
- 13:43Speaker 1: Like the Burking bag is such a big thing because
- 13:44Speaker 1: everyone's rapping about it right now, everyone's talking about it
- 13:47Speaker 1: all of the the you know, the music girlies are
- 13:49Speaker 1: wearing the Burking bags and the fashion girlies.
- 13:52Speaker 2: Right. Vogue is such a big deal.
- 13:54Speaker 1: Because of course Vogue talks about and features everybody, but
- 13:56Speaker 1: it's been around forever. It's as staple brand, so everything's
- 14:00Speaker 1: te and that's that's my favorite part of pop culture
- 14:02Speaker 1: and getting to do and explore and being an enthusiast
- 14:05Speaker 1: of this category because you never know where the news
- 14:08Speaker 1: may take us. I appreciate you guys so much, Lowriders.
- 14:12Speaker 1: At the end of the day, there's always so much
- 14:14Speaker 1: to talk about, and you guys could be anywhere with
- 14:16Speaker 1: me to talk about it. Even ten million dollars in
- 14:19Speaker 1: a borken bag, you know, there's so many Look, there's
- 14:22Speaker 1: only but so many millions are right here with me
- 14:24Speaker 1: when we are talking about them, and y'all could be anywhere.

- 14:29Speaker 1: my next episode.
