The actor made her response to a video posted by another TikTok user, who gushed over the ‘lived-in look’ the bags get over time.
In her video, Julia brought out her own grey Birkin bag and showed off the huge welts as she teased the accessory’s tragic life story.
“I love her, but she’s been through a lot,” she begins.
“That’s a little hard to see there, but she was actually attacked by a machete,” the Uncut Gems star claimed.
“I’m not kidding – that actually happened to this bag and me.”
Julia then turned the bag to reveal a smaller cut on the side. “You can see a little bit from where the machete slipped and hit the side of the bag, too,” she continued. “There’s a few more little…”
Thankfully, Julia was able to see the funny side of the machete ordeal.
“I don’t know, I don’t even know how I F**king managed to like… you know I was holding on to this Birkin for my life!” she joked.
However, the exact details of the machete attack are unknown because the actor doesn’t reveal much more, such as when or where it happened.
Some of Julia’s 815,000 TikTok followers began flooding the comments, begging to know more about the attack.
“GIVE US A STORY TIME JULIA,” one user demanded.
One fan wrote: “Guuurrrrlllll! That is a selling point!”, while a third asked the very reasonable question we’re all left wondering: “Julia why were you attacked by a machete?”
One commenter said: “Julia, beloved. We’re going to need some details here.”
Similarly, someone else quipped: “Are u gonna skip over the machete story or.”
One fan joked: “skipped the main story and gave us the side plot don’t change.”
Julia gained recognition after her short, but very high profile, relationship with controversial rapper Kanye West, as well as her unique winged graphic eyeliner look.
In February, Julia hit out at the claims she was left in tears after their split.
Writing on her Instagram Story, she said: “"Y'all would love if I was soooo upset!
"The media would love to paint a picture of me a sad lonely woman crying on a plane by myself but it's NOT TRUE!!
"Why not see me for what I am which is a #1 hustler. I came up y'all lol and not only that but Kanye and I are on good terms!
"I have love for him but I wasn't in love w the man Jesus Christ what do u guys think I am 12 years old?!
Julia added that the only time she had cried 'on record' was on 'Feb 6th on my dead BFF bday', referring to the death of her friend Chris Huvane.
She concluded: "Anyway If u want the full tea ur gonna have to buy the book when it comes out :)" (sic).
