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."

(Instagram) In a phone call to the "Studio Extra" program on "Extra News" channel, the artist said: "The circulated photo showed the matter inaccurately. The fan was not Egyptian, and she was happy with the concert and tried to express her joy. The camera angle suggested that she kissed me on the mouth, but that did not happen at all. She just suddenly grabbed me." He added, "I treat my fans of both genders with the same affection. I don't reject or embarrass anyone. My approach doesn't include insulting or pushing away the audience, but what happened is the responsibility of the concert organizers. They should have organized the interaction or even put up barriers if necessary," adding sarcastically, "They should have installed barbed wire."
