Billionaires and their yachts land in St. Barts, along with Mike Tyson, Michael Jordan and Jake Paul
Jeff Bezos, Jennifer Lopez, Michael Jordan and fellow billionaires, millionaires, stars and athletes have descended on St. Barts for the post-Christmas days leading up to New Year’s, spies tell us.
Also seen near the island this week were yachts allegedly carrying Mets owner Steve Cohen and media mogul David Geffen, while boxing champs Mike Tyson and Jake Paul, and reality wreck Scott Disick, have also been seen partying on land.
Spies saw Jordan’s ship off the island, which comes complete with a basketball hoop on the luxe deck. (If a guest shoots a brick, we’re guessing, the rock goes overboard?) Reports have said that Jordan’s boat, a 230-footer called Joy, can accommodate 19.
But the boat’s apparently worth a mere $80 million, whereas Geffen’s yacht, Rising Sun, is valued at $400 million.
Other boats allegedly in St. Barts this holiday season are captained by Mike Ovitz, Starwood mogul Barry Sternlicht, WhatsApp co-founder Jan Koum, Brit hedgie Ross Turner, Tyson Foods boss John Tyson, blue blood John Adams Morgan, AirWatch founder Alan Dabbiere, Jimmy John’s sandwich tycoon James John Liautaud, Walmart heiress Ann Walton and Buffalo Bills owner Terry Pegula.
Tyson was seen at Nikki Beach, while Kourtney Kardashian’s baby-daddy Disick was holding court at local hot spot Isola.
He was also photographed on a beach date with a more recent ex, Chloe Bartoli.
Bezos and his fiancée, Lauren Sanchez, have been spotted around the island after celebrating her recent birthday.
YouTuber and boxer Jake Paul was seen at Guérite Beach Club.
And J.Lo was seen strolling in a bikini and belting out a tune on her iPhone.
We also hear that Bebe Rexha and Saweetie will be on the island to perform at a benefit gala tonight at the Eden Rock.
If it all seems too over-the-top, while you’re stuck at a playground trying to entertain your kids and wishing the holiday break would end, there’s a meme circulating with an aerial view of the island and the caption: “No one needs to see the view from the plane as you land in St. Barts.”
