Thief Robs NOVI But Only Steals Reciepts

Sep 16 2024 Share

Local burger chain NOVI shared CCTV footage on their Instagram of a thief breaking into one of their restaurants and stealing an envelope.

However, the restaurant revealed that the envelope, much to the thief’s disappointment, contained mostly receipts instead of cash.

The footage also captured the thief casually picking his nose during the attempted robbery, prompting one commenter to dub him the “nose-picking bandit.”

NOVI concluded their post by tagging the Maltese Police Force, alerting them to the incident.

The 76th Emmy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday saw Hollywood’s top stars flaunting their fashion, but it was a person dressed as a banana who stole the show.

The individual behind the viral costume was Nymphia Wind, the winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race season 16. Wind, a Taiwanese American drag performer, donned a lime green bodysuit and pointed-toe heels, mostly concealing their body.

The standout feature was a golden, half-peeled banana outfit with large peel sections Wind pushed down to reveal their face, topped with a wiry black hairpiece.

Social media buzzed with reactions to the quirky look. One user joked about the costume being nightmare fuel, while another humorously referred to Wind as a “Jane Goodall impersonator.”

Some reactions were more critical, but Wind’s bold appearance captured wide attention.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly after winning RuPaul’s Drag Race, Wind reflected on overcoming cultural expectations to be quiet and subtle, sharing that self-confidence has been a lifelong challenge.

Despite the ups and downs, Wind emphasised the importance of embracing both good and bad days. The banana costume highlighted Wind’s unique personality and flair, making an unforgettable statement at the Emmys.
