Nadine Nassib Njeim was robbed in Cannes, $20,000 Hermes bag
ALBAWABA - Renowned Lebanese actress Nadine Nassib Njeim recently took to social media and revealed that a thief stole a $20,000 Hermes bag from her in France, after she attended the 2025 Cannes Film Festival.
In a clip circulating on social media, the actress expressed her anger towards the incident and mentioned that the robbery occurred after she checked in her bags at the airport.
Additionally, Njeim shared in disbelief that the Emirates Airlines staff are investigating the matter. However, she said that they offered her unfair compensation, which "wouldn't even buy an accessory for the Hermes bag," emphasizing its hefty price.
The robbery sparked widespread debate on social media, with many users raising topics about image and overpaying for luxurious items such as her $20,000 Hermes bag.
Others referenced China's recent videos about luxurious brands, criticized Njeim, and wrote, "Don't be upset, Nadine. Basically, all the international brands are manufactured in China, and their cost is a thousand times less than what you paid."
They added, "I mean, if you paid $50,000, its real price in China is $500. So, you should be upset about your stupidity and the stupidity of others who pay these amounts. Go to China and buy all the brands, and there is a discount there too. Ridiculousness."

Ukraine informed the American administration before carrying out the attack, a Ukrainian official said, as reported by Axios. Today, a brilliant operation was carried out — on enemy territory, targeting only military objectives, specifically the equipment used to strike Ukraine.

Official: Matheus Cunha Joins Manchester United in £62.5m Deal
Manchester United have officially announced the signing of Brazilian forward Matheus Cunha from Wolverhampton Wanderers for a reported £62.5 million, marking the club's first major signing of the summer under new manager Ruben Amorim. The deal is pending the completion of visa and registration requirements, but Cunha has already passed his medical and agreed personal terms. United released a brief statement confirming the agreement, welcoming the 25-year-old to Old Trafford. A Standout Season in the Premier League Cunha arrives following the best individual season of his career, having scored 15 goals and provided 6 assists in 33 Premier League matches — a tally that comfortably outshone any Manchester United player last season. The Red Devils finished the campaign with just 44 goals, their lowest total in the Premier League era. Across all competitions, Cunha netted 33 goals in 92 appearances for Wolves after joining from Atlético Madrid in January 2023. Financial Structure and Future Role United are set to pay the transfer fee in three instalments of £20.85 million over two years, after Wolves reportedly rejected a five-year payment plan. Cunha could also inherit the iconic No. 10 shirt previously worn by Marcus Rashford, whose future remains uncertain. Ambition and Motivation Cunha has made no secret of his desire to take the next step. Back in March, he said: 'I've made it clear I want to fight for titles and big things. I know my potential.' His departure from Wolves was emotional. In a message to fans, he wrote: 'This was the best season of my life. I made mistakes, I got things right, but I gave my all for this club. Thank you for the love.' A New-Look Attack in the Making With Rasmus Højlund underperforming and players like Garnacho, Sancho, Antony, and even Rashford linked with exits, Amorim is aiming to rebuild United's frontline. Cunha is expected to play a pivotal role in that overhaul, with United also tracking new attacking targets including Bryan Mbeumo from Brentford and Liam Delap from Ipswich Town.
