This broke ass girl had the guts to walk into a bank & ask for a $22 million loan lmfao. I need her confidence
Lol. All I need is to borrow 1grand to fix my car so I can work harder and I'll be happy
She was born in Russia
ladies ... nuff said.
More like her brain
@@isnainkhan7071 it was her jawls
being super dumb and having confidence are two different things
All she has to do now is write a book while in prison and she's gonna be rich when she gets out.
I would love to read it
What's funny is one of her victims will probably get a little rich off this since a publisher wants that victim to write a book about the whole scandal...
@Angry it's a gift probably not
RLach o she won’t she owes hella ppl
I think there's some law that keeps people from profiting from their crimes like that.
Scamming wealthy hotels out of cash: Nice girl. Scamming a regular everyday woman out of her year's salary: you lost me girl
@1% Evan Ł yeah but people love rich dudes getting scammed
@1% Evan Ł ...................what if I told you the rich people you're bootlicking are scamming you. You still wanna go down on em?
@@RNFLACKOratshobo Stay mad and broke. Your anger gains you nothing.

@@flightevolution8132 not like you’re doing anything better than them by commenting lol
To be that charming and have that much of a personality is a real skill.
It’s called an anti social personality disorder and it’s terrifying
The only skill involved is having zero empathy, period. Anyone without empathy can pull that off. Its called being a psychopath.
@@alicecuriosityoftenleadsto6288 psychopaths are charming….That’s why they are so terrifying.
Have you watched the show? Or any of her interviews? There's not one ounce of charm in that idiot. It's all just arrogance and delusion. Can't believe people were swept away by that. How tragic.
@@nomenome856 more delusion tbh. she would just laugh and deny she did it.
Imagine what she could have pulled off if she lived in the 20's - 90's
Probably less considering the social conventions women were expected to adhere to
The exact same things she did in the 2010s.
Frank Abagnale
Carrot Cake YESSS MY FIRST THOUGHT
Imagine what she could have pulled off if her parents were actually rich
That "fake it till you make it" thing, works sometimes.
if you’re a pathological liar/psychopath sure!
Yeah it's kind of sad that they actually believe their own lies.
well, not for Anna...she was arrested.
Kurt Pablo if you're a rapper it does
TRUMP is a great example of a very successful con artist
Anna seems to be the kind of person who just accepts that, “Well, money isn’t real. It’s paper, has no worth to me.” So she just plays a role as a socialite.
Sociopath you mean?
Anna seems like the type of person to end up ruining people's lives for her own benefit and absolutely nothing else.
She stole other people's money (some just average folk living pay check to pay check, like wtf?), and yet money has no real meaning to her? It ONLY does. She's willing to sin for it. The social status was second. She cared more about being pampered than popular.
so a real not brainwashed human?
And now she's writing a memoir about her experience. And they're already creating a series about her story. It's basically catch me if you can.
Apparently someone she stole from also wrote a book and HBO has filming rights on it so not exactly. She's gonna be broke still.
She would have been the most interesting character on Gossip Girl
Ivy Dickens 2.0
that would Poppy. She was also a socialite that scammed NY elite in the series
my first thought when I saw the title!
@@AmandaVieiraMamaesouCult truth!
Poppy!
Just goes to show you, if you scam the poor you’re a bank, if you scam the rich, you go to jail.
Bernie Madoff
@@buyerbware25 There's a whole nation of Bernie Madoffs.
Preach!
E. Artan You’re an idiot
Right? She scammed a fraction of a percentage of their money out of them.
Funny thing is she’ll be a
Millionaire once her book and film deals go through. She’s a real life talented Ms Ripley
Plot twist that was her plan all along
@@habib6499 she a genius
Not really. There is a law in new york that doesnt let you monetize 100% if you are in prison, so a big part of what she earns will remain to ny city taxes. And dont forget she can return to germany in any minute...
@@SimplyBico So she releases a book after she gets out of prison. She was released in February. But the journalist she stole the 62k already wrote a book and HBO purchased the filming rights.
Google 'Son of Sam Law'
The most crazy part is how she could have gotten out in ONE YEAR by simply saying yes but chose the longer sentence because she needed her image. She’s definitely the main character in her story.
lesson of the day... if you are poor, don't ask for a 2000$ loan, ask for 20 M
I swear tho
well it depend who you are....
Yo gotta dress rich though like Armani suits and Michael kors bags
Wayne Hayes Michael kors bags? 😟😭🤣 lv bags only broke boy
@@waynehayes912 If you dressed in those... people are going to think you are poor. Get a hermes berkin bag and dress in exclusive branded clothe, not the cheap LV, gucci, those are for people who are poor pretending to be rich.
I feel like if she stayed focused on her goal she would have made her money back to pay back the banks. And this would be the most bizarre success story ever.
She said on her insta that she wanted to be a different kind of a star.
@@radstartrek I mean if she's stuck to her plan of buying that old church and converting it into a business she could have easily paid back the bank with the money she would have got from it.
She got mad distracted and played herself smdh.
Sierra check me out! I’m a black violinist
That was what I was thinking as well! Had she been able to acquire that church and make money from it, she could've paid back all of those.
Update:
Sorokin was released from prison on February 11, 2021. In March 2021, she was taken back into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for overstaying her visa. She is currently being held in a New Jersey state prison awaiting deportation to Germany.
how do you know that?
Good.
That’s so sad she didn’t profit from the Netflix show the journalist did and she even wrote a book about it
@@mohamedahmedyassinhussein6856 she’s a scammer and criminal, she isn’t who you should feel sorry for
Rachel actually got her money back and even made a lot more from this ordeal with her book and from netflix among other things but still, getting scammed is the worst feeling ever.
Well yeah, she's a young woman and not terrible looking. Men will pay for her either way. Nothing as impressive as Catch Me If You Can. Hookers con men everyday.
I couldn’t convince a cashier to accept an expired coupon today
😂
hahaha
LMAO
Same
True story
She got close to achieving her goals, makes you wonder how many people actually got away with similar schemes
Literally fake it till you make it mentality nothing’s ever really real
I feel like the majority of super rich people lol
99% of people are this way
@Jr Rose Trump is from a dynasty and not rags so,technically no,Enron however is a more suitable example
All she needed to "get away with it" was some starting capital. There is a whole world in which it is incredibly easy to make money - provided you have the buy-in fee, which is out of reach and out of sight for most people. Anna could see it, but she couldn't reach it.
Ive never heard of socialite like this but thats insane, i also watched a video from South china morning post about this graduating students who took socialite as a experiment, she became socialite for 21 days which she also recorded all of it, she got freepass to all luxury things, at the end, she concluded that all riches gets freepass while poor had to pay double
i just came from watching that as well.

Yep! Look at celebs they get free clothes, jewelry, vacations, hotels all of it just so people with buy the brands! It’s crazy!
So she went to jail while bankers from 2008 were pardoned.
Tells you it’s ok to scam the poor but not the rich.
Poor are just labor for rich..we are meat
She got too caught up in the "rich life" throwing parties and flexing at expensive hotels. Should've just focused on getting that loan and buying and turning that property into mad profit then enjoyed the fruits of her "labor". She did it backwards.
Exactly!! She did some really dumb things, i don't even know what she was thinking.
Not to give her credit or anything, but she could've been building up her clout to make her persona seem more believable. She certainly seemed to have had a targeted goal she was working towards.
Well that commonly happens for people who didn't earn their riches through hardwork and labor. Just looks at the rich kids of today.
You actually think she wanted to buy that property had the loan come through? She would scam you too then. She had no interest to buy any property, she would take that 22m and blow it.
Is this the great gatsby or something lol....
It sounds like stuff that a person would be able to pull off in 1919 not 2019.
Khalid AlAli right what
Like the movie catch me if you can ain't that similar?
but she did thought ;)
"The Way We Live Now"
I didnt have my ID to get a ticket so the woman asked if I had facebook and if I could show her my page to prove how I was. My point is people's lives are so fake if your facebook shows you standing next to a new car people assembly you are rich.
The fact that she got away with basically robbing Rachel of $62,000 is infuriating and probably the most fked up thing she did
Damn she is the embodiment of the series "Great Pretender".
Lmao
Hecc if she is even referenced in that anime, I'd go wild 😂
But having Abby, Laurent and *I forgot Protag-kun's name* is enough, I guess.
She live the life stealing from banks and rich people without pulling a Gun .
Netflix... We are on It
"catch me if you can"
you're right, sounds just like Netflix. They'd want to turn it into some female empowerment movie. "Gettin' one over on the man" and overlooking the real story. The woman she defrauded for a years' salary, the people fired from their jobs because this girl defrauded their businesses.
She doesn't deserve a movie deal. She deserves to grow old, a nobody, and die in obscurity as a punishment for the harm she did to so many people. Not be glorified by Netflix and the NPCs who watch this type of movie they produce about worthless people, glorifying them just because they happen to be female.
There are MANY MANY women who did great things that have been all but forgotten that Netflix can make movies about, to inspire great things in young women. I support that with all my heart, we need that. But not this convict, I say let her serve her time and deport her, bar her from speaking with Netflix's writers and representatives.
This girl I like...
She's not big enough. Hundreds of thousands isn't enough for a movie
@@Afflictamine ?
For those wondering how she pulled this off I’ve worked in several high-end establishments and I can totally see it. You are taught not to push or be overly persistent with high-end clients.
You can be aggressive so long as your clients dont think you're being aggressive.
That shows how pathetic people are then. You shouldn't judge or treat people differently based on how wealthy you perceive them to be.
Uranus it’s still true, i visit dubai a lot with my family and there’s a huge difference in the way they treat us if we are dressed well and my parents are decked out in brands vs if we come in looking homeless LOL they usually almost always give us a hard time if we’re all just wearing t-shirt’s and sweatpants. its bullocks but its inevitable.
@@heist4420 I don't doubt that at all. Been on this planet for 27 years and I see so much judgement. I find most people (95%+) judge people strongly on what they look and sound like, and fail to see things for what they are or for what people have to offer.
Absolutely
Is all about how you play the game, New Yorkers eyes shine when they see wealthy people in stores, hotels and the list goes on. Dress the part and play it well. No one will close the doors. Do you think standing in line to get into a restaurant or club will work, think again? However if you show up in a Rolls Royce is red carpet all the way even if you aren’t anyone special. Money is power in NYC.
I kinda feel.she has a high EQ... Imagine if her family is really from the elite class... She will do well in life.
No she is a thief.
You do realise she’s a scammer like everyone else? Just because she’s a girl doesn’t change shit. She deserves to be deported
You definitely do not know what an EQ is
She's probably the first person to live her best life without even spending a single dime
Talon Du Couteau *she will
@Theme Fresh Don't worry hun I believe in hard work
@Talon Du Couteau but the main point of what she said is not race. It's about ethics.
Talon Du Couteau But it is real and the reason why BOTH cases went their way was because they USED racial tensions during their time for the advantage. So it was because of the legitimate inequality of black people in the judicial system, they exploited it and tricked mindless black people into thinking they’re being charged racially. Check ya self 🙈🙈🙈the clownery jumped OUT
Talon Du Couteau
*also we don’t get blamed on by White people for their faults because they’re not oppressed. We can blame white people of the past for institutional racism, slavery, segregation and apartheid. Personally I don’t feel like playing the victim because at the end of the day I’m going to make it to the top whether or not if I am black, but you can’t deny the history of white people. If racism were never introduced there never would’ve been an issue with inequalities but here we are. We’re making progress but there is still a few more baby steps.*
When you maximize your charisma score without investing into intelligent points....
She's smart. What she lacks is wisdom and moral character.
Yep, real player in the game of life.
she'll make millions when she gets a book deal
The exact opposite of me.
Rolls high on deceive, but rolls ones on intuition checks.
I'm always so conflicted how I feel about this. On one hand stealing is wrong and I feel badly for those who were fired because of her, but she scammed the elite and something about that feels satisfying. But she was also stupid about it like if you were gonna pull this off you have to make it sustainable, you should've done what you said you wanted to do so you have an income stream as well
Update: She had an interview with 60 minutes Australia after she was out and she doesn't feel any remorse, you'll see the interview here in youtube. She's so entitled and annoying.
And she has the worst squeaky voice.
She hired a stylist for her court appearance with no money.
she gave her an IUO
Having sex with rich men will get you a lot of things especially when you're 'good looking'.
She's not good looking though

Jamie1200 Jennifer Lawrence is so overrated. To ME she’s not a good actress, her acting skills are meh. And Lindsay’s been sober for quite sometime now and she was basically the party angel in Hollywood, so she know the deal.

I love how people cheer "iconic" sociopaths till they're the actual victims
Word, people are so naive
Ikr so fricking annoying
hahah exactly!
I remember watching a documentary on this and got ungodly amounts of cringe from this girl. She was so unremorseful and basically stated nothing she did was wrong. My god I've never wanted a couple to use protection more in my life so that this abomination was never created. Scamming that hardworking girl off a whole year's salary is criminal.
Sociopaths lack empathy and emotions. The fact that there are people cheering her is beyond me. I totally understand why her parents wanted nothing to do with her. Those kind of people can hardly be redeemed.
She scammed the biggest scammers in the world(banking system)!!!😮
Bingo!!🎯🎯

@Stxr KillerX they are everybody's enemy, not just americans.

*Some people said something similar for Bernie Madoff!*
I had to bring my driver's license, ss card, and proof of residency just to get a freaking _debit card_ and this girl walks away with $100 grand like it ain't no thing. What. the. _hell._
@Brandy McNamee
Something doesn’t add up.
@thanksgiving bruh I'm a girl and no one trusts my ass
She didn’t just “walk away” with 100 grand. She provided fake proof that she had accounts worth millions overseas, and because she’s a German native it was probably more difficult to fact check her background since she was only in the US for a short period. And besides being a great liar she was actually well educated about finances which convinced bank officials
Brandy McNamee are you white? with an interesting lastname? If yes then u failed at life
White privilege gone wrong i wonder if she was black could she pull it off hell no she get prison time
it's crazy that everything would've worked out if she'd just bought that real estate earlier on
i am actually impressed about how she was able to blend in so nicely could have had investments to pay of the banks atleast . But yeah if she told me her story in person i would applaud her actually
She steal the money

@@rustictango6933 if she can invest, I'd say it was worth the while

I can't even check into a hostel without making full payments beforehand. How did this happen? How are people so "smart" and yet gullible at the same time? Maybe they needed this lady to come along and open their eyes.
It's just custom with wealthy customers. If you assume they're good for it, it's much more profitable to be overly nice to them than to be pushy. That way they'll tell all their rich friends about your establishment.
I don't get how this is possible. I can't even book a hotel room without fronting a credit card, but yet she was able to live in hotels and even ride a private jet..... Aren't the hotels asking for a credit card to rich people??
How do you check into a hotel without showing proof of a credit card? I can’t even get past the front desk without an ID!
Exactly
World of the ultra-rich. Liars such as hers, with the skills to pull it off, is almost non-existent. Higher class services prioritize comfort. They don't want to discomfort the ultra-wealthy, and issues tend to be resolved more subtly, at their comfort. Last thing you want to do is to pester a VIP for issues, especially on their vacation, and they pay the money for such service. Supposedly, private yachts have an insane amount of engineering to make sure staff almost never comes into contact with the owner. All their needs taken care off, behind their back.
So, potentially making a VIP angry on their vacation vs exceptionally low risk of an elaborated scammer.
yeah and how do u rent a plane for free?
@@alisonmadell2934 she also have tons of cash from check fraud?

you can pay cash in lots of hotels
Apparently, those hotels mentioned above.
I think, the question is wrong. Every hotel I've been to, they have given me the room without any credit card, but paying in cash (in advance).
So if you pay in advance there's no problem. But if you don't, and still get the room without giving a credit card, that's the thing.
I am still a student and I travel to many countries. I don’t have credit card so I pay in cash in all of them.
@@AngelVazquez-xh1dh I dunno, many hotels I've been to have signage saying you must have a credit card on file to check into a room, probably to prevent situations like this.

@@danielflipsvegas1949 Because Rachel was lied to? Lmao imagine being asked to go on a the dream vacation with someone you believe has a vast amount of wealth that you've seen with your own eyes, only to come to find out that there was a "mix up." She was under the impression that she would get paid back because, as Rachel saw, Anna had A LOT of money. Also considering that Rachel was in a foreign country and was most likely put under a lot of pressure from the hotel that SOMEONE needed to pay. Quite honestly, probably most people would have done the same thing.
Rachel was stupid enough to fall for it.

As every other psychopath she eventually learned that the system can not do anything to really hurt her. I've seen people like this, they think life is just a game. There is nothing you can bargain with. They are not interested in luxury and are not afraid of legal punishment. For that reason she will never stop unless one of her victims beats her to death.

Alright youtube and cheddar. After 3 years of recommending me this video, I finally watched it again! I already watched this on its 1st year but I guess you weren't happy about it but I relented so now I hope this doesn't get in my recommend any time soon or perhaps NEVER AGAIN.
I watched the Netflix series and I heard about her story before. Anna is a dangerous poychopath, she thinks she is entitled and has no sense of guilt. I wish she was in prison very very long time. Perhaps life will punish her really bad
But the people she scammed dont feel much guilt either -she read the people she scammed , and their goals . There are worse people than some one that want to famous -there is one just now on the world scene that lied and trixed to the top of the worlds and all "riches" "belived" him
She's already made friends with identity thieves in jail and says she "never realized how easy it was" 🙃
audiopendent everything she did was little leagues , only 200 k in debt is nothing
Real impressive until you start to wonder how toxic of a friend she would be.
I remember reading that too. Where she learned from people how simple and easy it is to assume a dead person’s identity, clean a bank account and all that. I’ll be surprised if she’s not in the news a decade from now for stealing millions from the richest people alive.
@@likira111 Actually, if you read her story on "The Cut" she wasn't a toxic friend at all. She only stole from greedy rich people and would give her friends and the poor some of the money. She became best friends with a hotel receptionist named Nef and promised to take care of her if she dumped her toxic boyfriend.
@@cutienerdgirl According to... herself?
She’s not even pretty. Like - no one was blinded by her beauty in order for her to pull this off. Which honestly makes it even more impressive.
agt24 Yup. Blinded by the cash. 💰
She should win an Oscar, really for all her performing.
personality
I personally think that many men would find her attractive but I think you can be a scammer without being attractive
I assume she was just really charismatic and always knew just what to say. and who says you have to be super attractive to be a good scammer.
AHHH Feels like yesterday seeing this on my recommended page and I'm now seeing it as a show on Netflix!!!
if she used her social skills more than her money she could have actually pulled this off
Easily could have bought properties with the money and payed everyone back and made more than she will ever need in her life
She got too caught up in the "rich life" throwing parties and flexing at expensive hotels. Should've just focused on getting that loan and buying and turning that property into mad profit then enjoyed the fruits of her "labor". She did it backwards.
She didn’t have much time though
She never had any money though... she got everything for free, or by having a "friend" pay for it. It's not like she had a stash and just kept blowing it on private jets instead of investing... she had nothing, so she was never gonna be able to pay for that property. Maybe if she managed to get a bank or investor to give her a couple million upfront, but they were smart enough not to trust her... unlike the various hotels, restaurants and "friends" who were willing to spot her a few thousand here and there, but obviously not enough to buy a property in NYC.
FiendGuy she got greeady
@@TheMistyBlueLounge She had money from loans, which she could have brought property with, then use her social skills to generate business and more money.
This is _Social Engineering_ at it's finest. Don't need to be a hacker or have a PhD to trick some people into doing things for you..
IMO if she wasn't a woman she would not have gotten away with it for so long. Even today women are generally given the benefit of the doubt and assumed to not be engaging in criminal activity, as women generally do not deceive and defraud at such levels of risk of prison but that is changing rapidly especially with high profile cases like this. It's also very common for girlfriends/daughters who have rich partners or families to be very blase about paying for goods and services, the assumption always being that there will always be a rich partner or family member who deals with their financials to pick up the bill later.
@@cattysplat I dunno, there were some pretty good male frauds over the years
@@cattysplat Look into the name "Clark Rockefeller", he has a number of productions made about all his shenanigans lol
@@cattysplat trust me, it doesn't matter whi you are, it's easy to control people
@@lessemo Frank Abagnale (Not Abagnalee not Abagnaylee but Abagnale!) comes to mind. Someone does not need a vagina to make fool of people. What you need is the confidence to pass as whoever you want to and be a freaking good liar.
Apparently she was released from prison in February 2021
This is 99999x better than Netflix series
The most astounding take away from this is how far presentation & attitude will take you.
Yup
Pink plant but the cash should have been a dead give away something was a miss 💀 that’s fine if you’re from Africa, Asia, Southern America. They tend to use cash when they come to the states. But Europeans and American we are a strictly card using people, in that stratosphere it’s Amex Platinum, Centurion, etc
@@Robertking1996 i bet that bank learned a hard lesson 😂
Take you to prision?
@@Robertking1996 you'd be surprised. Most "new money" tend to carry around thousands in "walking change" it sounds ridiculous but tends to happen a lot. 😂I worked a register at a mall when I was in school and it seemed like everyone that had something to prove would carry their month's rent in their pockets.
I bet she ends up making money on the Netflix deal...
She's getting a show? I want it
I wonder. I recently saw a Frank A. speak and saying that he did not get any money from the movies, plays and all of the commercial stuff they did about his life. Of course, he made a deal with the FBI, so maybe that is why.
jennifer lawrence is going to make the money, not her ahahahah yeah right, as if that anna would suddently become an actress after all her bullshit... hahahahaha
@@BrimstoneMoth Not as an actress, but I have a feeling she has to consent to using her name, life's story and plus, I'm sure she can provide a lot of insight, which would be valuable for Netflix.. $$$
And I'm not even talking about the book deal... ;)
hmmm no, it doesn't work that way. She isn't something like ''copyright'' that you have first to buy or ask for
The trailer of the Netflix show is already out. Can't wait to see the show.
i watched this video waaaaay before netflix caught on.
I wonder how many rich people did what she did but succeeded in their investment. So, they were able to pay off all the fake loans.
This literally happens..but their goals materialise in the end so they can settle their liabilities ultimately
I feel like... most of them 😂
Our former president, for one
Trump
This happened all the time, but they are smart enough to pay some “people” for protection ... anna did not do this
The way she was represented as a cartoon had me dead
The fact that this came out way before the show and it still shocks me watching the video
Reading all these comments who are praising her for what she did, makes me realise how fucked up our society has gotten.
It's all sorts of adjectives like "interesting", "fascinating", "powerful", "confident" etc. Rooting for a sociopath till they're the victim and all of a sudden, she's no longer fascinating or interesting.
This proves that class is dictated more by BEHAVIOR and TASTE than MONEY.
And integrity!!!
@@notsomuchhere1387 Yes. Integrity is a part of one's behavior. And as we have seen, it is not the case here as this woman had zero integrity; which was why she got busted. Then again she wasn't true upper class anyway.
The class system is bullshit anyway
Gamer Guru no it’s dictated by white supremacy
My friends tell me that I had a good TASTE and well BEHAVE but no MONEY, that's why none took a serious for. So I had a revelation : in this society is how much money you had that build your good taste and behavior in front of the other 😉
The fact that she was even offered only a single year in prison is ridiculous! Beyond privileged!
just be born a female bro
and white
The idea is that they (the prosecuting party) can avoid the trial taking far longer than it should (since Anna is apparently a very persuasive person) in exchange for letting her off easier. The lengths to which they go to get that plea deal definitely don't seem right, though.
What I'm most confused about is why Anna seemed to gain a conscience and not accept the plea deal...or, maybe she was just continuing to talk out her ass and essentially lost the opportunity.
@@zainal-ziyara260 *female* fixed it for you
Im pretty sure her penalty for her crime is 4-12 years....
Came back here after watching the Netflix trailer..
This is actually a genius plan that just has a lot of risk, and she was unlucky. Because if you own property in Manhattan, and make it just 1% more popular than the average Manhattan place, you will become filthy rich. Problem is that you need a lot of capital aswell how do you become 1% more famous than the other places?
And Anna came up with the genius solution: just start spending like you are unbelievably rich by abusing the credit system.
The bank will lend any capital as they willl think her collateral is endless.
She will get fame because people will have never seen anything like that before and be amazed, mainly because the image she paints of herself isn't possible to exist.
im so confused...how did she even manage to hire a lawyer and a fashion coordinator if she was broke??
She still had the cash
As a man, I can give you at least Two good reasons.
@Carpee Cat Because as a man, I like boobs. It's not to the exclusion of anyone else if you read carefully. But don't look too far into it - you might hurt yourself.
She apparently borrowed money from her rich friends saying shed pay them back
@Sunny Delight lol "oik oik?" If I'm a pig, you're a fucking moron lol.
this kinda reminds me of catch me if you can, that's why Hollywood eager to make film of it I think lol
THATS THE FIRST THING INTHOUGHT ESPECIALLY WITH THE FAKE CHECK PART
Was thinking the same thing, excellent movie too
Oceans 8 did it.
probably her inspiration for it.
I think that was a realy story aswell
It's so disgusting the fact she has a lot of people supporting and admiring her🤢
Someone needs to make a movie out of this. It’ll be iconic.
