Justin Bieber among many other celebrities such as Chris Rock and Julia Robert’s take pay checks to perform at the private, Fortune 500 execs only retreat.

They hosted events and performances for Palantir CEO Alex Carp and more.

Palantir is partnered with the Israeli ministry of defence and provides them with targeting systems. They support their “war related missions” and also run all of ICE’s identification, mapping and targeting software.

    Justin Bieber in conversation with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang? That is the most random corporate event I’ve ever heard of.

  2. talk-spontaneously on

    Trevor Noah is the most surprising name here.

    Bieber, meh. I don’t expect much from him. I doubt he’s really that well read.

    Trevor Noah is deeply disappointing to see

    Edit – for some reason op framed this as a private palantir event, but it was actually a tech conference with a few Palantir folks attending. The whole post is a borderline lie

    James Cameron. Apparently making hundreds of millions off avatar movie releases is not enough. But iirc he also supports WB/Paramount merger.

    Imagine saying “among many other celebrities” and the other celebrity is Oprah. 

  6. not letting rich people off the hook for being shitty, but it seems that WNDR26 is not an event “for Palantir” but instead hosted by jeffrey katzenberg. sure, alex karp was there, but it doesn’t seem to be a palantir-sponsored event as the title implies

    They try to come off as artists. They all do have artistic talent however bottom line is anything for a buck.

    Look at that fucking lineup. Lego competition judged by Chris Rock?

    what exactly is the event? not doubting you, just looking for more context. the only palantir thing i can see is that one discussion at 2pm, is the whole event palantir or just one panel amongst lots of different billionaire corporations?

    edit: apparently it’s not RUN by palantir, [it’s run by jeffrey katzenberg and is some kind of tech-geared corporate retreat](https://www.primetimer.com/news/photos-of-justin-biebers-private-concert-at-wndr-26-conference-attended-by-oprah-winfrey-julia-roberts-trevor-noah-and-more-goes-viral-on-reddit). gross that the palantir ceo was invited and the whole event kind of gives me the creeps lol fuck billionaires

    Fuck all these people. If youre below their wealth level they literally do not gve a single fuck about you. All Trevor Noah’s progressive bullshit takes go right out the window when he appears at an event like this.

  11. a_rabid_anti_dentite on

    I would imagine plenty of celebrities that are widely adored perform at these kinds of events all the time and we just don’t hear about it

  12. VariationAgreeable29 on

    Serious question, unless each of these people getting with the time? $100k? $500k?

    Don’t bury the lede. Palantir operates with Flock and is interested in building a facial recognition database of everyone in America. There’s credible evidence that they’ve used Elon’s stupid Doge SSA data theft to match real-time location data and SSN with other forms of ID – and yes, they’re more than happy to hand it over to a militarized state. 

    They’ve been evil since around 2016 so there’s zero excuse for celebs to pander to Thiel’s bullshit. Thiel despises women and is interested in disenfranchising them most of all. So a big double FU to Julia Roberts.

    Imagine being one of the wealthiest people in the world and thinking that seeing Justin Bieber perform live is a flex.

  15. Look at me rushing to show my wife another reason why I dislike Trevor Noah. ☝🏾🥴

  16. totallycalledla-a on

    “Lego building contest judged by Chris Rock and Palmer Luckey” is the most dystopian fever dream thing I’ve ever heard.

  17. Maybe I missed it, what’s the point of this event?

    Edit: This comes across as unintentionally rude. I’m trying to figure out if this is some sort of team building for rich people or which company. Basically, just what in the hell is the purpose of this event lol. Because who on earth is the target market for an Oscar winning director, followed by an actress and comedian then talk show hostess.

  18. SoFar_Gone on

    Title is an extremely misleading. This was not a palantir event. There was a guy from Palantir invited to talk.

  19. Plastic_Muscle9711 on

    Why do we still give a fuck about celebrities?

    What if we just… stopped?

    There is some misinformation here. The conference is a Tech Conference hosted by Jeffrey Katzenberg: [https://www.primetimer.com/news/photos-of-justin-biebers-private-concert-at-wndr-26-conference-attended-by-oprah-winfrey-julia-roberts-trevor-noah-and-more-goes-viral-on-reddit](https://www.primetimer.com/news/photos-of-justin-biebers-private-concert-at-wndr-26-conference-attended-by-oprah-winfrey-julia-roberts-trevor-noah-and-more-goes-viral-on-reddit)

    It is for a lot of Tech companies not just Palantir and it does not seem like they are even associated as the hosts
