No "Birkin" for Ms. Birkin


British born singer/actress Jane Birkin ditched her oversized famous Hermes Birkin bag claiming that it was responsible for her tendonitis.

The bag was specially designed for her in the eighties after she accidentally spilled the contents of her too-small bag onto the Hermes designer on a plane. It soon became a must have status symbol and sold for around $6,000.00.

Birkin was quoted as saying ... “That bloody thing. I told Hermes they were mad to make it. My one was always full and it ended up giving me tendonitis.”

Barkin lived most of her professional life in France and is best known for her erotic song "Je T'aime Moi Non Plus."
