Jennifer Lopez Trolled For $70K 'Ugly' Bag; Internet Brands It Absurd

JENNIFER LOPEZ TROLLED FOR HER BAG Jennifer Lopez frequently makes headlines for her tumultuous relationship with Ben Affleck. Recently, her handbag became the center of online debates about celebrity culture and extravagant spending. In a viral video, the fashion icon's accessory drew attention, but for all the wrong reasons.  The 55-year-old singer was spotted in the Hamptons, shopping with her stepdaughter Violet Affleck. She carried a second-hand Hermes 2011 straw picnic bag with brown leather. JLo wore a flowy white tank top, jeans, and golden hoops, achieving a casual, urban chic look with the Hermes Kelly Picnic bag. A TikTok user revealed the bag's cost to be $70,000, approximately ₹58 lakh. The high price of the pre-owned bag sparked a debate about the reckless overconsumption of luxury goods. Some deemed it ridiculous, while others used self-deprecating humor to reflect on the issue. Netizens mocked her for the exorbitant handbag, which they considered too ugly to be a luxury item. Some commented that they could find a similar bag on Fiji streets for $5 or that it resembled a Walmart basket, while others remarked that JLo was wearing their annual salary. The general consensus was that the $70K bag was absurd and looked like a cheap flea market item. The high cost of the second-hand bag, with its outlandish and mediocre design, left people confused. However, a few supported her choice, arguing that she earned her money and could spend it as she pleased, as $70K is nothing to her. Nonetheless, JLo's influence in the fashion world is undeniable, always grabbing the spotlight with her style.
