Years later, it's interesting to see that this was the precursor to the Influencer Era. Right at the cross of celebrity obsession and narcissism.
I wouldn’t call it a precursor. If you think about it, influencing was always a thing. It’s just now done through different mediums.
I was in high school at this time and it cannot be stated enough just how much “celebrity lifestyle” was marketed directly to us. Paris was everywhere, Lindsey was everywhere, logos, luxury goods, etc. I knew people who were actively trying to live that lifestyle. It wasn’t just these kids, our whole age group was obsessed. They were just the ones that took that obsession overboard.
the new generation is obsessed with youtubers...the very old one with singers and bands... there is no excuse for what they did and no one, but them are guilty for their behaviour.
Absolutely! And we don’t even realize that we’re obsessing. As a child, I felt like looking like Britney Spears and Linsey Lohan. And that that the “image” that if you didn’t have it, you were a nobody, you weren’t attractive
I was in high school at this time. I never felt the need to be as vapid as Paris, as destructive as Lindsey. I never felt the need for designer anything. It's called strength of self.
Same. I'm 35 now and this celebrity lifestyle was very much marketed towards us. I felt poor since wasn't wearing designer threads, and then all of sudden my mom remarried and I had access to things I didn't before. We had money and all of a sudden I looked like it. Looking back now, I can't believe I even cared about such stupid and material things. I feel so free not caring about such things anymore. And those things are fleeting. I havnt had a designer anything in years.
You picked great examples, since both of them were always in trouble.
“EVERY TIME YOU FCKING YELL I HAVE TO RE-RECORD IT!!!”
Certified Cali classic: the Nancy Jo phone call scene was one of the ages.
“Four inch little brown Bebe shoes! 29 dollars!!”
Literally exactly what I was thinking when I saw Nancy’s name pop up on the screen 😂.
🙌🤣
“That was beautiful honey you did such a good job expressing yourself 😭” that whole scene was filled with icon behavior 😂
God, it kills me.
😂😂😂
Reminds me of the club kid era. Pre influencers who desperately wanted to be "it" people.
Yes exactly, there's always some kind of form of it with every generation, flappers of the 20s, pinup culture in the 40/50s, hippies of the 60/70s, club kids in the 90s, and now social media influencers. Every generation's youth has its own version of it.
Ten years later, this really is so disgusting. These kids had these gross misconceptions of what it was like to be a celebrity and thought that if they rob them, that the same attention would be brought to them. I really hope they all got themselves the help they needed
They are famous making $
More like 15 years since it all actually happened.
if you do more research you’ll find out that this narrative was pushed by the media and NOT a true depiction of why they did what they did. Alexis was in severe active addiction and needed money, and also only participated in one of the robberies. Y’all just feed into whatever the talking heads say
@@aliciajones1649 FAMOUS LMAOOOOO
problem with this is u guys failed to mention the major drug abuse and addiction they were all going through as well
True they were all heavily strung out on drugs, Heroin , Cocaine.
So!? It's their own FAULT they were on DRUGS... Idiots SMDH 🤬👎
Im a former addict myself and no matter how messed up I was I never thought about hurting anyone but myself
@@TYler-dn2pm congrats! want a cookie?
This movie is a brilliant cautionary tale
Hi iv never seen the film.everytime i put in the name of the film it just brings me to videos about it.hows that were can i watch the film if u could tell me
The movie is terrible and Emma Watson's performance is cringeworthy.. the movie is not "clever" (or anything else that it's trying to be) and has nothing interesting to say about our culture
@@lorrainelawlor7885 the bling ring movie with Emma Watson is on Hulu and paramount+
@@lorrainelawlor7885 bruh
@@yespls4184 facts!!
Hey it's the lady that Nancy Jo that Alexis and her family call in that classic memeable clip lol
I promise you if they were anything but white they would be on A & E with everyone in orange telling their stories void of the smiles and giggles while reminiscing…..
are you blind?
They weren't white wtf? Lmao
It was a mix of races but the only 1s telling their story are the white 1s.
what you mean is if they were black
@@potocatepetl are you??
I'm so tired of people trying to justify the actions of idiots by saying that they were sad or had a tough childhood when they really didn't, and even if they did, that doesn't excuse them from being idiots and doing stupid things.
Can we please stop normalizing using a shitty childhood as an excuse to commit crime? Because it's bullshit.
Exactly. I just watched the documentary on Netflix and can't believe how stupid the whole family (and others) were. Poor little cry-baby Alexis making up poor excuses for her so-called minor involvement. And as for her totally stupid mother 'bragging' about her own drug involvement etc. This would be the real reason for her husband's infidelity. As for Nick? This idiot treats his actions as a 'fun'. That says a lot for his mentality.
Amen!
True that.
@quentint5735no they’re just spoiled enough that they think they deserve to just take things. Not all people who have suffered do that. It takes entitlement and an engorged sense of self importance. They were not all 17 stop making excuses.
mentioning their condition isn't watering down what they did... just explains a precursor that could've lead to their current behavior. do you think kids who kill their abusive parents are being "excused" when people report on the abuse lmao?
Hollywood celebrities should be more extra careful about their things. Stuff does not just go missing around their mansions, houses, homes, condos, penthouses.
I love the camera man “ johnny how did u meet these kinds , when did you start receiving goods man” trying to sound all cool hoping johnny will respond
Dang that sucks for Alexis. She was only involved in one burglary and yet Courtney and Diana were involved in a majority of them and they get off with probation.
“White privilege” in action.
It was stupid then, it's just sad now. They were so desperate.
Honestly that time period was an exciting time period for teens and young kids growing up.. you just wanted to be seen as cool if you were a kid who had always been tuned into celeb culture. They must’ve had fun times during that period, I bet they get heavy nostalgia thinking back
I worked for a celeb for 6 years and lived next door to him in the la arts district-he would leave his door wide open all the time and even would forget to close the doors to his freakin Tesla parked right on the st. Celebs jus careless. I also bummed a cig off paris at an Oscar’s party so I feel really cool rn lol. She’s VERY sweet
Is he that much of a celeb if he parks his Tesla on the street?
They told people about the burglaries,,,,,they posted pics online wearing stolen property and nick confessed everything to cops (even stuff they didnt know about) …..none of them are that smart!! 😂😂
OMG NANCY JO!!!!
So, THIS is Nancy Jo😆. If you know, you know. Lol
Great doc- except them completely leaving out that Alexis Niers was a full blown addict.
Of what substance?
@@ashleymckenna2808 opiates, she was smoking the pills, it's on a documentary somewhere. She's sober now with a family
@@Ma-cn7yn doesn't surprise me. Thanks for info!
@@ashleymckenna2808 its actually revealed now she was in depths of black tar heroin, like for real, during the time Pretty Wild was about to go live and all of the robberies began.... she was truly in an abusive household and some interviews she's done recently explain what lead to her behavior really well
Nick Prugo went on to terrorize a Hollywood makeup artist getting get put in jail. He would later serve some jail time for it. He's a real piece of work.
The multiplying Kim Kardashian was truly terrifying (7:17)
Lmao what even was that?? 😂😂
I admit their reality show made me laugh because they were so unhinged but also there a lot of drugs involved and that was very serious and sad.
He was gay but was in love with her in a platonic way but yet went on to marry a woman. Ok
How can celebs have multi million dollar homes and yet have such crap security.
Orlando Bloom and Miranda Kirr's house looks like Roman Polanski's house in "Once upon a time in Hollywood"!
Live and learn "BABY!"
Lol at them acting like as if living in Calabases made them poor ir something
Honestly if you were of the right age at that time you probably would have gone to Paris house too and definitely would have taken something. These it girls in Hollywood were all the media talked about... especially to younger people. It was inescapable.
Funniest thing is that Alexis was stupid enough to snitch on herself, oh Btw don’t believe what she said about Tess & her calling it in because it was only Alexis and she’s dragging Tess down. I feel like that family dynamic was so messy that they have flawed visions of life, Tess on the other hand got clean, moved away from the city & is now living a healthy happy life with her baby, Yes she’s a mom now! And a great one! Let’s all say sorry to Tess because she’s been put into this situation when she wasn’t involved in it, even tho she was friends with Nick, she wouldn’t have snitched on a friend, but Alexis clearly would
They are really emphasizing the Calabasas area here. Is it really that smarmy? Anyone from the Valley care to chime in?
I mean, that’s where the kardashian/jenner’s live
@@kaitlynhall2112 I've heard that a lot of Armenians live in this city. Then, I've also heard, a lot of rappers live there too. It's just what I've read tho. I've never been to CA.
It’s an incredibly affluent area but there are snobs everywhere. It’s no more smarmy than anywhere else
maybe it should be said that at the time, 2008 and 2009, Calabasas wasn't as affluent as it was now. They were well-off but when it was first constructed, many people actually didn't want to live there because of all the amenities in the city and how far away it was. Now, there is a lot more infrastructure and businesses around the community
Is that Nancy Jo lolll
I can't believe nick prugo ratted all his friends out. That's so so low. And he didn't even secure a deal before he did that? So he's not smart either.
Uhh, Alexis ratted, she called Nick in to the cops and that’s how they got their eyes on them in the first place
And the Chinese Biatch ran to Vegas without telling them whats up, so they all had their own Agendas and would've Snitched 😂
The point is; celebrities deserve better than regular people, that’s why they have high-end products
I wouldn't say they deserve it. But the celebrities worked for it in a sense. They don't deserve to be robbed.
@@HappyCabezonFish-je4tk nobody deserves to be robbed but celebs do deserve better items than regular jerkass people. That’s why they’re celebs
@@BryceChillis earning and deserving is different. They are lucky to have money so they can get whatever they want but poor people work hard too and should be able to have decent things but not by stealing. These teenagers were selfish and stupid.
@@HappyCabezonFish-je4tk poor people work the hardest
Alexis said that night was the first night she tried H and she threw up and blacked out.
She lied lol she just said that to try not accepting accountability for her part in the crime to try to get her prison/jail sentence as low as possible
@@djjones7039 yuppp, but she did do H, but she was used to it
Alexis is a liar
Excellent .
These kids had a beautiful life in Calabasas . it seems that crime is the style these daze . people like playing games with the police . stupid !
WHY in the name of GOD, would any school vote anyone the best COUPLE?? THE BEST SMILE, HOW RIDICILIOUS
Class superlatives are normal in your last year of high school in the US.
@@dominqueb10 not normal
I remember being so excited to win one of those senior year
@@mollymalone7290 they do it at almost every school so how is it not?
Thats the worst thing you got from this video?
These kids were entitled spoiled brats. I don’t believe they didn’t have money Lindsey Lohan couldn’t go back in her home after they invaded it. No excuses for that, they should be ashamed. Money doesn’t buy everything, especially a piece of mind
Annoying music. Better read the Vanity Fair article..Ι
Wtf is this relevant still?
Why not
Sofia Coppola, an immigrant, calls an immigrant an emigrant. Gosh, how boring. Sheesh! It would be great to hear from THE BLING RING themselves.
There's a documentary on Netflix
Sofia Coppola is not an immigrant, and neither is her father. She's also lived the kind of life of someone who wouldn't know or care about which is which, it's everything but noteworthy.
Calabasas is full of rich Jews
