The Bling Ring

The inspiration for the Sofia Coppola film. The true story of the privileged teenagers who stole millions of dollars worth of valuables from celebrities. With a list of victims that reads like a "Who's Who" of young Hollywood, including Lindsay Lohan, Orlando Bloom, Paris Hilton, and Rachel Bilson,The Bling Ringis the stuff of writers' imaginations-with one exception-it's a true story. The media asked: Why would a group of kids who already had designer clothes, money, cars, and status take such risks? Award-winning journalist Nancy Jo Sales found the answer: They did it because they could. And because it was easy. "A great piece of crime reportage," The Bling Ring is a shocking look at the seedy world of therealyoung Hollywood ( The New York Observer). "For a satire on America's modern day celebrity culture, The Bling Ring is hard to beat." - The Guardian "Sales [is] a superlative reporter." - People "Absolutely terrific." - The Awl "Brilliant." - Grazia Daily
