The celebrity home burglary trend

The Kidman and Urban break-in is not unique. There have been a fairly substantial number of cases in recent years of celebrity homeowners who have had their houses broken into and robbed.

Marlon Wayans' house was broken into late in June 2024, and the Pacific Palisades residence of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson was struck in August of the same year. The singer Jessie J, LAFC soccer player Olivier Giroud, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, and tight end Travis Kelce were all victims of home burglary in 2024.

The authorities have indicated that other of these crimes are probably conducted by organized groups who track celebrities' itineraries in an attempt to strike when they are not at home. Social media use can also be implicated, with criminals tracking updates to know when a celebrity is traveling or at public appearances.
