Parramatta developer Jean Nassif’s Instagram videos have viral reactions

An Instagram account rallying behind Jean Nassif has been set up after a video of the Parramatta property developer gifting his socialite and sometime actor wife Nissy a $480,000 yellow Lamborghini went viral.

The page — @mrs — nissy — nassif — is titled ‘In Support Of The Nassifs, Anti bullying and supporting the beautiful Nassif’s’.

Set up on Monday, the account has just 41 followers and 21 posts in response to spoof videos and Instagram accounts making fun of the couple.

The Nassifs have been mocked in spoof videos where posters use yellow items to imitate the original video. Picture: Instagram

The original video featured the Toplace director saying: “Congratulations Mrs Nassif — do you like?”, as his second wife casually strolls into the garage and blows him a kiss.

In the spoof videos, instead of a yellow Lamborghini, users have substituted items including toy cars, lemons, a rubber duck, a banana, a Teletubbies doll, a wheelie bin, a container of Vegemite­, a tin of tuna and a yellow bicycle.

On the anti bullying account, each post is a screen shot of what appears to be direct messages of support to Nissy and her husband Jean.

They use hashtags including #isupportthenassiffs #antibullying #familysupport and #charitywork.

One post is a screen shot of a message that reads: “It’s sad that this bullying happens at any age”.

Another reads: “Own it Jean! You’re such an inspirational, incredible, successful businessman, a true leader for so many. Unfortunately, not many will ever reach 10% of what you have achieved, Otherwise they’ll be too busy running their own show or success instead of wasting their time trolling your page.”

The Daily Telegraph yesterday reported Jean splashed $75,000 on his recent 50th birthday bash, taking over the Boom Box space at Sydney’s Marquee nightclub.

Again, in a video shared to social media, Jean is seen surrounded by scantily clad dancers and a cabaret singer covering Shirley Bassey classic Big Spender.
