It must be nice to have a truck load of money to burn and it seems Clint Eastwood’s daughter, Francesca Eastwood, would know. Francesca Eastwood — who stars in the E! show Mrs. Eastwood and Company — and her celebrity photographer boyfriend Tyler Shields decided to drop a ton on a Birkin bag. That in itself is probably a normal occurrence for Eastwood, but this time around the shopping spree was a means to an end.
The duo decided to slice a $100k bag in half with a chainsaw and then promptly set it on fire. Why you ask? Great question. The only reason we can come up with was to be able to film it, as the couple obviously did from start to finish.
Eastwood spoke recently about how her new reality show will help her to seem relatable:
“It shows my little sister and I dealing with very real issues, like I’m moving out of the house, I’m in my first real relationship. A lot of the drama comes from my boyfriend in the show. [Laughs] He always finds himself in the center of the drama. My little sister is in high school, she’s constantly embarrassed by my mom. She’s going through high school and it’s all on camera. I think that people will be able to relate to it.”
Not exactly sure how much I have ever related to her. Unloading a lot of money to set it on fire — I guess that’s what people with no concept of money and no idea how hard others work for it do, right? What do you think of girls like Francesca Eastwood — ones that are born into celebrity and all the money and trappings that come with it? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below!
