Hey @Francesca_E, I heard you lit a $100 g handbag on fire and shit? You should kill yourself. Really. I'm not joking. Kill yourself.
Clint Eastwood’s Daughter Burns $100K Handbag For Fun, Internet Gets Angry
Francesca Eastwood — daughter of Clint Eastwood and current reality star — is said to be receiving death threats after she was photographed by her boyfriend Tyler Shields destroying and burning a Birkin bag valued at over $100,000. Does she deserve the downpour of hate coming her way?
I know, right? Now tell your friends!
Clint Eastwood's Daughter Burns $100K ...
Whitney Jefferson
On his blog, Tyler wrote the following:
For the people who don’t know a Birkin is the most sought after bag in the entire world there is a waiting list and some of them can run upwards of $100,000. This is the red Crocodile Birkin VS the red $200 chainsaw and 4 dollars of gasoline!
Destruction is a beautiful version of freedom…
Would you want this bag?
Are you sad to see me destroy it?
The reactions in the comments of his blog range from “This isn’t art, this is a narcisstic show of your own excesses” to “fucking spoiled rich fuckers have NO clue what it is to make a dollar.” There were also many critiques of Shield’s skills as a photographer, like “I can take a better pic with my cell phone” and “the central composition is boring and with that boosted contrast it looks like a myspace picture i took in high school LOLOLOLOLOL, what a fuckin waste.”
But let’s take a look at some of the heat Francesca is taking on Twitter:
@Francesca_E my friend sats you are a fucking slag whore who deserves to die in a plane crash
@Francesca_E if u hate all things expensive and pointless burn ur house down and kill ur step mom
@Francesca_E that purse equaled 4 yrs of salary my husband makes in the USMC I hope you feel great that he would die for you to be stupid
@Francesca_E You're a selfish, spoilt little richkid brat. GTFO.
@Francesca_E ERES UNA PENDEJA ASSHOLE WHORE ESE DINERO DEBERIA SERVIR PARA GENTE POBRE
Some people were a bit more sensical about the issue:
@Francesca_E Why not sell the Birkin and give the money to charity instead of destroying it?
Some people are mad at @francesca_e for destroying a Birkin. Why aren't they pissed at Hermès for pricing a bag at $100k?
@Francesca_E So ungrateful. Selfish. You could've done something meaningful like donating that money. Some people actually have to work hard
It disgusts me how insensitive, and offensive @Francesca_E destroying 100,000 Birkin bag is to the hard working people in this country
And then, there are some people who loved it:
loving that photoshoot where you set that hermes bag on fire! @Francesca_E
This is ridiculous! If someone chooses to ruin a Birkin THEY CAN! If you don't like it DON'T WATCH IT! @Francesca_E Do what you want!
@Francesca_E I'd love to have a birkin but I am NOT offended by the photos & actions! People need to get a life! Sorry u r getting grief!
@Francesca_E I'm poor and u carrying an Hermes does not offend me lol..im all for it! do what makes u happy :)
@Francesca_E Love The Pictures Birkin Bag On Fire!!!!! AWESOME!!!!!!!!
@Francesca_E. Don't listen to what people say about the purse. @tylershields work is amazing. U guys keep doing what u do. Love ur photos!

nonatitania a year agoIs it weird I’m more mad that the “art” that came out of it is poor quality? It’s way too over-exposed and isn’t as provocative as it wants to be.

AubrieWanKenaubrie a year agoMy humble opinion: We should be outraged not at the individuals who percieved what they were doing was art. Whether it’s a cliche’d act or not, they— it seems— considered they were making an artistic point. Sometimes an artist aims to make you uncomfortable or angry. All that art BS aside, i thi m we shiuld be more concerned with the fact that in our culture and society we are pissed over the destruction of a material item, such as a handbag. Im doing armchair psychology here, but it seemed the tweeters most enraged took the destruction of the purse as a personal blow. I thibk we need to evaluate a societh where you’re own self worth is measured by the logo, and price tag on a purse— and how fat your wallet is.
