Jeff Bezos seen dancing off Blue Origin backlash at Miami party

Jeff Bezos is literally shaking off the Blue Origin space flight backlash.

The Amazon founder was spotted dancing with his dad, Miguel Bezos, during Sting’s surprise performance at a ritzy private party in Miami Beach on Thursday, a source tells Page Six exclusively.

We hear Jeff, 61, and Miguel, 79, were “front and center” busting a move and singing along to the “Every Breath You Take” singer’s show during the Global Champions Arabians Tour.

At one point, the father-son duo even threw their arms around each other and swayed to the tunes at Qatar Airways’ prestigious horse championship event.

“Total dad’s night out energy,” the source tells us of father-of-four Jeff, adding, “They were having the time of their lives — loving every minute of it while they sang and danced along to [Sting’s] set.”

We’re told the billionaire and other VIPs were treated to food catered by Major Food Group throughout the evening.

Guests at the soirée included “Real Housewives of Miami” stars Lisa Hochstein, Julia Lemigova and Kiki Barth as well as DJ Khaled, FIFA president Gianni Infantino, Major Food Group co-founders Mario Carbone and Jeff Zalaznick and British investor Jamie Reuben.

Notably absent was Jeff’s fiancée, Lauren Sánchez, who faced major backlash after she and her all-women Blue Origin NS-31 crew launched into space Monday.

The “Fly Who Flew to Space” author was joined by Katy Perry, Gayle King, former NASA rocket scientist Aisha Bowe, civil rights activist Amanda Nguyen and film producer Kerianne Flynn for the trek.

The women wore full glam and curve-hugging custom blue uniforms designed by Sánchez and Monse co-founders Fernando Garcia and Laura Kim for the galactic journey — which lasted just 10 minutes.

While suspended in space, Perry, 40, used the opportunity to announce the setlist for her upcoming “Lifetimes” tour, while Sánchez, 55, promoted her children’s book with a stuffed animal of its main character, Flynn.

After the group safely touched back down on Earth in Texas, Jeff was caught face-planing outside of the spacecraft while excitedly running to greet Sánchez.

The commercial spaceflight mission — made possible by Jeff’s Blue Origin aerospace company — was quickly slammed as tone-deaf and a major PR stunt.

Jessica Chastain penned an opinion piece titled “The Blue Origin flight showcased the utter defeat of American feminism.”

Meanwhile, Olivia Munn called the mission “a bit gluttonous,” Olivia Wilde said a “billion dollars bought some good memes I guess” and Emily Ratajkowski shared that she was “disgusted” by the possible harmful effects the rocket launch had on the planet.

Others, like Jessica Alba, defended the crew’s decision to embark on the trip to space.

King, 70, also spoke out in support of the mission, telling People, “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.”

Sánchez, for her part, admitted to being “really fired up” over the onslaught of hate from trolls.

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