Netflix’s docuseries 'The Real Bling Ring' gives the now-grown perpetrators the opportunity to tell their stories themselves
he Bling Ring—a group of teens who committed a string of burglaries in the homes of multiple celebrities between 2008 and 2009—was a tabloid-ready scandal born at the nexus of celebrity obsession and the perennial truth that attention has always been the most valuable social commodity. The teens behind the Ring—Rachel Lee, Alexis Haines , Nick Norgo , Diana Tamayo, and Courtney Ames—craved fame, attention, and on some level, infamy.
Questions immediately began swirling around how the teens were able to pull something like this off. They didn’t seem remorseful when the crimes were publicized; all the while, the tabloid and gossip magazines were writing them off as celebrity-obsessed kids. While the film dives deeper into the crimes and how they were executed, it also explores the backdrop against which they took place: tabloid and gossip magazines’ obsession with the celebrity-obsessed, and the narrative that took hold in shaping the public’s perception of the teens of the Bling Ring.
