Bien, Sit Your Louboutins Down. Here Are 10 Other Kenya Celebrities With Some Seriously Expensive Swag.
This morning, Sauti Sol’s Bien was all over the news with his new Christian Louboutin studded sneakers that cost him about 250,000 shillings, quite a tidy sum for ugly shoes anyway. What Bien missed is the fact that Prezzo was rocking studded Louboutins in 2013. But you have to tip your hat’s to Bien, he has quite some sneaker game.
Now while you are still at it, thinking of what you could have done with 250K if you were in his position, Here are five other Kenyan celebrities who really throw some money for fashion.
1. Bahati’s Rolex Milgauss.
Bahati has been photographed rocking what we saw as a Rolex Milgauss valued at 8500 USD, that is around 850,000 Kenyan shillings. What type of car are you driving again.
2.Octopizzo: Clearly, Octopizzo’s shoe game is on a totally new level. He has rocked the famous red studded Loubotins, most recently Low cut light sole Nike’s. It is the Nike Yeezus that he bought at 10,000 that really made news! That’s like a milli for a pair of Nike Yeezus II!
3. Vera Sidika’s USD 3500 Louboutins
When it comes to dressing, Vera comfortably takes the top spot, unchallenged. When she made an appearance on the trend, she told the world that her weave cost her around 450k, her bleach job at 50 million (sigh) but most importantly, her Christian Louboutin Isolde Red Sole pumps cost her 304,500 Kenyan shillings.
4. Prezzo and the grand studded Christian Louboutins sneakers.
Bien, see this? Prezzo, back in the day when he was king was strutting the streets, feet clad in the reddest Louboutins you ever saw. A pair that he bought at 1800 USD that is around 180k back in the day.
5. Anerlisa Muigai’s alligator skin Birkin handbag
The daughter of Keroche breweries CEO who also runs a premium water bottling company “executive” recently made news when she bought a handbag worth 25000 USD! That is approximately 2.5 million on a handbag!
6. Shaffie Weru: The unparalleled time-piece’s connoisseur
Kiss Fm’s rowdy party king and widely acclaimed Kenyan bad boy is just a harmless watch collector! According to the archives, Shaffie Weru has a watch collection worth more than 1 million! that was back in 2013, now he has more.
7. Jaguar’s Day-Date President Yellow Gold – Fluted Bezel Rolex- We cannot even begin to blither about expensive without bringing Jaguar into the picture, kid is dangerously rich. The watch below was acquired at 25000 USD. That is quite as expensive as Anerlisa’s handbag. Now you know who is queen and who is King.
8. Mike Sonko’s bejeweled Vertu cell phone. The Nairobi senator bought a phone worth 1.1 million shillings that doesn’t even have a camera!
9. Huddah Monroe’s yellow and white Chopard diamond Engagement ring.
Gifted by the boyfriend we ne’er met, Huddah was out there on social media flaunting a yellow and white Chopard diamond ring. Chopard jewelry is the type you see on the likes of Lupita Nyong’o, Victoria Beckam, The Duchess Of Cambridge and other elite. The right apparently cost 187 million Kenyan shillings.
And I’m sitted here, writing, still rocking my Patek Phillipe timepiece. Lord have Mercy.
