A photo from 2017 showing New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani posing alongside actress Allison Williams has resurfaced, linking him to longtime Jeffrey Epstein associate Peggy Siegal at a high-profile luncheon. The image, taken on November 15, 2017, shows Mamdani smiling with Williams, as well as director Mira Nair and filmmaker Shimit Amin.
The photo surfaced in newly unsealed Justice Department records, which also reference Nair. The documents do not allege any wrongdoing by those mentioned but were released as part of a broader release of millions of pages detailing Epstein's social and professional network.
Siegal was once a powerful Hollywood publicist who later faced industry backlash over her ties to Epstein. She had been cut off by multiple studios, including Netflix, FX, and Annapurna Pictures, following reporting on her association with the convicted sex offender.
The 2017 luncheon photo shows Mamdani alongside Daniel Kaluuya, another celebrity guest at the event, which was hosted by Siegal. A second image from the same event highlights the prominent attendance of Jordan Peele's film, "Get Out," during Hollywood's awards season.
Another photo from December 2016 also features Nair attending a private-residence film event with Siegal for the movie "Queen of Katwe." The records include an email written by Siegal to Epstein in 2009 about an after-party for the film Amelia, which Nair had directed.
The correspondence documents attendance only and does not suggest any misconduct by those named. However, the revelation adds to the growing list of connections between Mamdani and individuals associated with Epstein.

. I mean, you've got a mayor who's got ties to some big Hollywood names, but like, what's the real story here? Is Mamdani just a friend of friends or did he know about Epstein's thing? The fact that Siegal was cut off from the industry after her connections to Epstein were exposed is pretty interesting. It makes me wonder if there's more to this luncheon than meets the eye 
.
.
... so New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is linked to Jeffrey Epstein's associate Peggy Siegal at a high-profile luncheon back in 2017 
. like, what does it even mean? does it mean he had no idea about Siegal's shady past or did he just think she was cool 
? anyway, I guess this just adds more fuel to the fire when it comes to Mamdani's connections to Epstein... makes me wonder if all the other mayors and politicians who were friends with Epstein are gonna get called out too 
So, it looks like Zohran Mamdani was friends with Peggy Siegal at some point, and that she had ties to Jeffrey Epstein... but here's the thing: none of these documents suggest any wrongdoing by them. It's just a bunch of old photos and emails showing they hung out together back in 2016-17. 
Let's not jump to conclusions or start investigating people for something that might be totally innocent. We should focus on spreading love and positivity instead of drama and negativity! 
meanwhile, he's trying to play it cool as if none of this has anything to do with him... newsflash: you can't just chill with people who have ties to a convicted sex offender and not expect the scrutiny to follow you around 
plus, what's up with all these old photos resurfacing? feels like they're trying to keep some skeletons in the closet hidden 
. it seems like a bunch of big names were at that 2017 luncheon, but what does it mean for the city? 
. i guess you could say she was at the center of a lot of drama in Hollywood back then 
.
. those emails from Siegal to Epstein are just about attendance, no wrongdoing alleged. can't we focus on actual misconduct instead of just linking people to someone who did bad stuff? 
... seems kinda weird now that we know about Siegal's ties to Epstein 
Meanwhile, Nair and Amin are still doing their thing, no drama 
Guess you never really know who's who behind the scenes
