Real estate developer Stephen Ross is hosting a Trump fundraiser and people are not happy about it.
The developer behind Hudson Yards, Ross is facing criticism from celebrities and fashion designers over news that he is reportedly hosting a fundraiser for President Donald Trump at his Hamptons home on Friday. According to The Washington Post, tickets for the fundraiser range from $100,000 to $250,000.
Ross is also the chairman of real estate company, Related Cos., which owns SoulCycle and its parent company, Equinox, and is the owner of the Miami Dolphins. Many celebrities, including Chrissy Teigen, Sophia Bush and Billy Eichner, have taken to Twitter to express their outrage over Ross’ fundraiser, taking aim at his many companies.— christine teigen August 7, 2019— Sophia Bush August 7, 2019
Fashion designers have also joined in the outcry, including Prabal Gurung, who posted a three-part Instagram Story to call out Ross for supporting the president following the two mass shootings that took place in Texas and Ohio this past weekend, which many Democratic presidential candidates have claimed were caused by Trump’s racist rhetoric. Ross’ Hudson Yards is also speculated to be the new home of New York Fashion Week, according to multiple sources.
FYI I’m hearing designers for #NYFW are being offered Hudson Yards/the Vessel as a show space. Please, please: Don’t give this man any more publicity or funds. https://t.co/S1UvKIjuqx The same Stephen Ross holding that $250,000-a-head Hamptons fundraiser for Trump is also a minority investor in Momofuku. David Chang has seen plenty of controversy but not, so far, this kind.
Hey @Equinox – what’s your policy for canceling memberships once a member finds out your owner is enabling racism and mass murder? Stephen Ross is the majority owner of the parent company of Equinox gyms. He is holding a big Trump fundraiser. Know where your money is going. https://t.co/5t6Yxq8BCm The Post article writes that Trump fundraising luncheon is at the home of NY real estate developer Stephen Ross & his wife, jewelry designer Kara Ross.
