Alexis Neiers and her Iconic, Scandalous, and Queer Life
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- Alexis Haines (formerly Neiers) was the star of "Pretty Wild", a one season hit reality show on E! that premiered in 2010. She is also the face of the Bling Ring, which was a group of Calabasas young adults who raided and stole from celebrities homes. Some of the celebrities that were targets are Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Orlando Bloom, and Audrina Patridge. I sit down with her today to talk about it all, from her reality past to her inspiring, sober, and beautiful present.

you can tell she's done A LOT of work to get to the point she's at. tons of insight into her addiction and the dysfunction of her family. a lot of the language she's using makes it clear she's been to therapy, she's been to AA-like support groups, she's done and continues to do the work on herself to stay sober. props to her for the incredible growth!!
💯
She sure has the language down.
Oh please stop. Everyone on the planet used and uses drugs. Only these current generations pretend it's a justification for bad behavoir. Just grow up
I love this too especially as a recovering addict myself I love hearing other people’s stories especially cuz I started at a young age too (18) few months after graduating college and I becamba heroin addict like Alexis she is so strong especially being famous and having that whole time she was using being on tv and has to replay memories when she sees clips of herself ❤️
Lol I went to REHAB with her in Malibu. It was iconic tbh
The change in Alexis is HUGE . extremely awesome to see
I really like her, you can tell she has done ALOT of work, healing, therapy. She is bright articulate and can reflect on past experiences but they don’t define her. Great interview x
Shes such a complex person. I think it’s beautiful how much better she’s gotten
I’m so proud of the women she’s become
All of them?
@@Lommy9999 woman*
Not me
a sex hungry pu%$y eater, using her own words?? i feel bad for her children having such a horribly selfish mother!! now her kids are going to have to deal with their own trauma and deep confusion of what love and sexuality is. shame on her husband for having kids with such a depraved soul and allowing the mother of his children to bring various sexual partners into their home!! pathetic excuse of a man he is. is he not supposed to protect his offspring?? NO, he has allowed himself to experiment along with her!! demonic shit is what this stuff is 100%!!
@@offbalance7women???
She’s so sweet I’m really glad and proud to see she overcame her past life and now is moving forward, she’s been working so hard and non stop the past couple of years, this video really makes me happy!! AND SO IT IS❤️❤️❤️❤️
And so it is!!! ❤️
This was such an incredible interview. I saw your TikTok trailer on my FYP and immediately had to come watch the video. I had never really heard much about Alexis and was surprised to see how down to earth and humble she seems. Her story is really inspirational to me. The vibes were great and I’m glad she did the interview. Really awesome 👏
Thank you Oliver, appreciate that!
Same
This interview was so good !!! I wish it was longer! She’s beautiful ! I love how she’s so free and opened !
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it ❤️❤️
Need to do interviews on other sisters as well please
She's absolutely gorgeous!! I'm so glad that she's gotten herself together and helping families to get on track. I love her story❤️
Me too! She has the most interesting story for sure ❤️
This is truly a transformation! I used to love this show and have seen her work with people who are addicted. Proud to see the growth! And you did an amazing job w this interview
Omg incredible job. I’m sober after a relapse (was clean for four years) and really wanted to use today. This helped me out. Thank you for this great interview.
Thank you so much and congratulations on your sobriety ❤️
I hope you're still living your best life xx
I loved that show when it came out. I love how she changed herself and grew up. It’s super impressive.
Yes so impressive. Amazing to hear that she has sex with transwomen
I could listen to you two talk for hours!
Thank you J! ❤️
this is so sick! i have been a fan of alexis since pretty wild as well. she is so sweet, and you are an amazing interviewer. i am in broadcast journalism, and your series is so interesting to me. i look forward to see you grow!!
Thank you so much Monana! ❤️
She sounds like shes not there all the way. I think her husband probably of course is open to sleeping with other women but has loose morals on involving their children into her trauma and how she acts out because of it.
Its one thing to be gay but its another thing to seek comfort in same sex relations because of trauma and it doesn’t seem like shes fully over it and her family will be suffering the same way her mom has put her around questionable “progressive” ideas and actions.
WOW! This was such an excellent episode. Not only is her story fascinating, you both had so much calm energy and good chemistry on camera...and you asked all the good juicy questions! Thank you to you both for sharing this story!
WE NEED A PART 2!!!!!!
I love this interview! Alexis is so grounded and confident and of course she’s still absolutely stunning!!
I loved “Pretty Wild” they were beautiful and funny ❤. I am a recovering heroin addict as well and have moved on and moved up as she had ❤🙌🏽💪🏽
Incredible, so happy to see people evolve. Good work, Matt
I’m so in love with this women like she’s so beautiful and has a amazing soul
She is so beautiful and so cool to see her grow help others ❤❤
Hi Matt,
This is a wonderful interview with Alexis Haines! Thank you and Alexis for doing it. I think you and your subscribers would find the Sofia Coppola film THE VIRGIN SUICIDES very relevant to your video themes focused on self awareness, self acceptance, belonging, sexual identity and comfort.
She is so beautiful I was unable to take my eyes off her
Your story are getting more and more fascinating , she was totally open and honest. I love it! 💖❤️🔥💖
Thank you Kim for always watching and commenting! ❤️
you have an amazing way of getting people to open up to you!
Matt. Matt! I had never heard of Alexis before (maybe because I am not "of that generation"), but I was fascinated with her story. I appreciate her honesty and insights. You are the BEST interviewer - I absolutely love your style! You both give me hope for this world.
Thank you Anne!!!! I loved how honest and candid she was, it made the interview so smooth and easy for me because I didn’t feel like anything was off limits ❤️
..........Yeah, and now they're divorced - This 'Open Relationship' thing - Dangerous, dangerous - People just don't understand the full complexity of the situation.
You know how Alexis' mother's "Just do drugs at home where you're safe" is cringe now and clearly damaging? In 10-15 years it will be the same with the polysexual and open marriage stuff.
I've seen this cycle already, it happened the 1970s with "key parties", and we just ended up being disgusted with our parents, and completely creeped out by our neighbors. It was like an energetic slime that stuck to us children.
There is nothing new under the sun. I feel sorry for her children 😢🙏
Good job Matt! Obsessed with her since I was a kid , and through my own heroin addiction.
Grew up watching them on E so crazy! Great work !
SAME! Thank you ❤️
I'm excited to see her back on the screen!
Fascinating interview. I was so obsessed with The Bling Ring 💯🤣
I enjoyed hearing her perspective on her point of view about certain topics.
I'm glad she's being real and as honest as she possibly can during this interview
and she also portrayed kind of a sense of maturity sort of! I hope she continues to heal and to get better from here on out.
So proud of Alexis I love her she’s an inspiration. ❤
Did i just become an Alexis fan?! I sure the hell did
Hahaha I love it!! She’s the best ❤️
A wonderful vlog. Well done, Matt! Another GREAT interview.
The bling ring I totally remember them, I had mad respect for them ✊🏼
What a Beautiful Lady. Inside and Out. Bravo.
Matt definitely shows his comedic genius in well placed one liners 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Love you!
This guy is like glorifying the bling ring as a pop culture moment meanwhile it was so traumatic to her. Like she seemed clearly over his excitement over the worst years of her life.
Fabulous interview. X
I had no idea who Alexis was . But I really enjoyed hearing her story.
As other people have commented, you can really tell that she’s done a lot of work on herself to arrive at a much healthier place.
She seems very intelligent, healthy, and open minded.
I like to know if she would consider doing something in the media for the LGBTIQ + community . I feel she’s have a really informed and fresh take on things.
Nice to see her evolve to a much more thoughtful person.
I love her so much! So cool to see her all grown up and in such a good place.
I love her this is a great interview
Thank you so much!
Matt I love your channel I love every interview you do
So happy I subbed a while back, I can’t believe the connections you have made. So beautiful
Marisa!!! Thank you so much 🥺😭❤️
Enjoyed this and the Netflix special. Glad she is doing good.
How do you find these stories and they’re so interesting really I’m not kidding and just a little bit sad great job Matt
I’m super interested in her saying her mom “was” a narcissist
Most moms are
@@rockhero2274 lol that is absolutely not true
She is a really interesting person. Very smart. They should do a show on her, she has more insights than the Kardashians
Agreed I’d rather see 17 seasons of these guys before watching kardashians
Well done girl, take responsibility for the self, blaming others is coward. Prayers for your sobriety
I am so happy she’s sober and her mom is doing therapy as well
Alexis, you’re amazing ❤
If Jack from W&G had a UA-cam channel... this would be the channel. I love you ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ I can't wait for more and longer episodes
So good on this interview!
Thank you Cassandra!
I love her sm shes such an iconn
💯 @ early childhood trauma
This was a excellent, interview Matt ! Question: Why doesn't Alexis and Tess don't talk anymore ? I heard something about Netflix but didn't get the full context .
Thank you Charlie! Yeah, they don’t talk anymore. Apparently something happened that will be shown in the Netflix documentary so that’s why she couldn’t talk about why they don’t speak anymore.
such a good interview
Yessss go Pisces ♓️ mine is March 8th. Pisces ♓️ gang gang 🫡❤️🇨🇦
I wonder what parts of Nancy Jo's article are made up about Alexis?
Came from TikTok 💜
Opioids are a Fucked up Drug…I know first hand! I completely understand her story so much better & I have so much more respect for her! I’m so glad her life didn’t get worse because it could have gotten so bad…
People have underlying issues if they get addicted to opioids. I used to do heroin like 1-2 a month and I never felt like I was going to get addicted to it, I never let myself and didn't have a strong urge to get addicted
Evan and her now got divorced because he broke their rules in their open marriage. She told that in a podcast
Loved that show
We need an interview on the other sisters as well
Loved this! & newly subscribed
Thank you so much Angel!
She looks amazing
her saying she doesn’t regret the bling ring situation is so sad
Wait something’s coming on Netflix I’m ready
I have no idea who she is, but her voice does definitely sound like Kourtney Kardashian. Wow.
❤❤❤
PEOPLE CAN BE KIND AND GENUINE WHILE STILL BEING IN ACTIVE ADDICTION. PEOPLE CAN STILL BE KIND WHEN STRUGGLING. PEOPLE CAN STILL BE KIND WHILE COMMITTING E V I L.
Not saying this is her, but do not take face value for who they actually are.
as a bi/pan woman i feel so seen by this interview!!!!!
Great interview. I never knew anything about her and avoided this one because I honestly assumed she'd be lame and boring. Not at all! Sounds like a fun date 😅
Iconicccccccc!!! And so it is:)
She is a beautiful woman, I personally think she would look better natural without inflated lips and maybe fillers. She is lucky to be so pretty.
Awwwwww Yaaaaasss Pan🧡
Nice video
I would be a part of the bling ring myself.
Iconic I remember being so little watching that show and being lesbo for alexis hahah!!
OBSESSED with this!!!!
same
“I couldn’t take my life anymore” bc growing up rich is so hard hahahahhaha
God I love her, I would love to touch base & hop on zoom. I work in transitional houses where girls think their lives are over because they're on google & former addict/criminals & she would be a amazing voice to speak on that also 🤷🏼♀️😬
omg I remember her
Oh wow! We have the same birth. She was just born the year I graduated high school lol
I know reality TV is shit and producers of that kind are soulless individuals, i just can’t believe Chelsea Handler had her fingers in that format too! I always admired her honesty and real way of showing things, but supporting a bad environment like that family and teenage drug use, that’s messed up
She’s beautiful
Awesome
Oh they are in Ktown!lol....been in that plaza several times
I never knew she had a reality show.
She’s very pretty.
she talks about being traumatized growing up but that's exactly what she is doing to her kids by not teaching them morals. i would go as far as interpreting that as psychological child abuse. being so reckless with sexuality really screws up a person but to bring kids into your immoral lifestyle is truly depraved. i don't get why everyone is congratulating her on her progress and maturity. seems to me that she's replaced drugs with sex to ease her tendency of getting bored and going for cheap thrills!! she needs to work on her past trauma in order to stop that destructive cycle with her own children, who now to top it all off must contend with their parents splitting up. one abomination inevitably leads to another and so on. there's no escape from it!!
This is when your family is so dysfunctional her mom and dad ruined their life's.
I wonder what the beef is between her & Tess…
Why be married?
She's 🔥
I agree a lot of addicts experience trauma but not everyone. There's a lot of addicts out there who really haven't had much trauma at all. I'm one of them and I know quite a few of them which proves that addiction can happen to literally anyone. I will say though if you do have past trauma it definitely makes you more likely to have addiction issues compared to someone who hasn't
See I thought she was already in the bling ring then got her show.. why did she get her own show in the first place then? Hella curious but don’t get it. Really respect her tho she is fucking awesome, such a golden energy
she was just kind of always... 'on the scene', friends & partying w celebrities, celebrities' kids, etc, modeling gigs, stuff like that, meeting producers.
