Lauren Sánchez debunked the widely held thought that the figurehead mounted on Jeff Bezos $500 million yacht is her.
“I’m very flattered, but it’s not,” Sánchez told Vogue in a lengthy feature published Monday.
Instead, the sculpture at the prow of Koru, which is Maori for “new beginnings,” is one of Bezos’s favorite mythological figures: Freyja, the Norse goddess of love, fertility, war and gold.
“If it was me…,” Sánchez joked to the glossy before making a gesture of having larger breasts.
Sánchez, 53, and the Amazon founder, 59, sailed around on Koru all summer long.
The mega-yacht features three towering masts as well as three decks, one of which features a sprawling swimming pool, according to Boat International.
Koru costs Bezos a cool $25 million per year to run and can accommodate 18 guests — and requires a crew of 40 sailors.
The yacht also has a 250-foot support vessel that includes Bezos’ helicopter landing pad.
Koru is just one of Bezos and the helicopter pilot’s vessels in a fleet of super-yachts, helicopters and planes.
Over the summer, Bezos and Sánchez hosted a star-studded engagement party aboard Koru while it was anchored in Portofino, Italy.

A source exclusively told us at the time that the nautical fête was “intimate” with only a “small crowd” in attendance.
VIP guests included Bill Gates and girlfriend Paula Hurd, as well as Kris Jenner, Corey Gamble, Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield and more.
Although they’ve been engaged since the summer, Sánchez told Vogue she and the billionaire haven’t started planning their nuptials.
“We’re still thinking about the wedding,” she shared, “what it’s going to be. Is it going to be big? Is it going to be overseas? We don’t know yet. We’ve only been engaged five months!”
When they do finally tie the knot, the former reporter intends to take his last name, saying, “I am looking forward to being Mrs. Bezos.”
