It is the first time that a list of names has been shared by Bondi, 60, and lists everyone alphabetically.
A list naming hundreds of the celebrities , singers, actors, politicians and other public figures who appear in the Epstein Files has been released. It comes after US Attorney General Pam Bondi announced that all of the documents – comprising millions of emails, photos and letters – have now been shared with the public.
It is the first time that a long list of names has been shared by Bondi, 60, and her team and lists everyone who appears at least once in alphabetical order – from Alexander Acosta (an American attorney and politician) to Paolo Zampolli (a US businessman).
Being named in the Epstein Files or the letter does not indicate any guilt or wrongdoing and as Bondi and her deputy Todd Blanche have noted, the names appear in a “wide variety of contexts”.
Famous names in the document include Cher, Jay Z, Woody Allen, Bono, Robert De Niro, Mick Jagger, Amy Schumer, Bruce Springsteen and Kevin Spacey.
There are also many Brits named, among them – as is well documented – Peter Mandelson and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.

US politicians feature heavily, among them Donald Trump and his vice-President JD Vance, Marco Rubio, Barack and Michelle Obama and Bill and Hillary Clinton. Prince Harry and Keir Starmer also appear as the vast cache of documents includes news stories and emails that make reference to British politics.
There are also several people who are now dead, including Elvis Presley, Pope John Paul II and former PM Margaret Thatcher.
The letter adds that: “No records were withheld or redacted ‘on the basis of embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity, including to any government official, public figure, or foreign dignitary.’”
Under the terms of the Epstein Files Transparency Act, the only permissible redactions concern the protection of victims’ identities, details of active investigations and child sexual abuse material.
The Act, which the Department of Justice is following after it was signed into law by Donald Trump last year, calls for the public release of all unclassified records relating to the late Jeffrey Epstein and his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, 64.
Epstein, a wealthy US financier, died in jail in 2019 while awaiting trial for sex trafficking underage girls. Maxwell was arrested by the FBI and charged with enticement of minors and sex trafficking of underage girls, related to her association with Epstein.
She was found guilty of five child sex trafficking charges after a four-week trial and six days of deliberation in New York in 2021. The only count she was found not guilty of was enticing a minor to travel to engage in sex acts.
