The video gained 1.2 million views in a short period of time and sparked a wave of comments regarding how expensive the bag was, as per the reports of Yahoo entertainment.

The high price tag of the bag led to a mix of comments online. One TikTok user remarked that Lopez was «wearing my annual salary,» highlighting the bag's cost relative to an average person's earnings. Another user suggested that the same bag could be found cheaply elsewhere, saying it could be bought in Fiji for just $5.
