Most Ridiculous Moments from Bling Ring

The fact alone that Bling Ring is based on true events makes it ridiculous enough but leave it up to Sofia Coppola to make it even more amazing with her writing and directing... WARNING: SPOILER ALERT!

Here is a list of the most ridiculous moments from Bling Ring:

• The "evidence" shot during the opening credits:

•  after I saw this collection of gems I was hooked

• Underage and in the club:

• They are all in high school and have no problem getting in. How is this possible? They are friends with/one of them is probably sleeping with the manager of the club. 

• When Kirsten Dunst shows up at the club 

• Lets be honest, it wouldn't be a Sofia Coppola movie is she wasn't in it.

• Everything in Paris Hilton's house 

• Does she need a stipper pole and dance club? Also the fact they visit not once but five times and Paris never noticed a thing was missing.

• Anything and everything "Chloe" wears

• seriously I loved every outfit and that says a lot

         

• The sisters are home schooled on the teachings of "the Secret" *snaps for vision boards*

• When "Niki" wears the Juicy tracksuit/Ugg combo to "school"

• its so fitting of the actual time frame the events took place

• When they have a yard sale of goodies

• Because really, who needs that much Louis Vuitton and Chanel, right?

• The "Lindsay" sign in LiLo's house

• I've always wanted one of those in my room and for it to not look tacky, she somehow achieved this, new found respect for LiLo!

• The extremes of celebrity culture on a level that doesn't involve paparazzi

• brings the level of stalker up a bit 

If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it, I mean, look at those outfits!

THE BLING RING

I'm not quite sure what made me more excited when I found out about a new movie coming Spring 2013: the fact they were making a movie out of the surreal real-life crime spree a few kids from the Hills went on last year that fascinated me because they were around my age or the fact that Sofia Coppola would be directing it; enter The Bling Ring.

Regardless of the criticism she faced, I absolutely loved what she did with Marie Antoinette, most girls my age would agree. It was, simply put, a feast for our eyes: jewels, beautiful fabrics, pretty pastel coloured cakes and macaroons; you could get lost in that world. The same could be expected for The Bling Ring. Coppola has a way of making things pretty and edgy while glamorous and trashy all at the same time, which lets be honest, isn't that exactly what we think of when we're faced with the constant tabloid rumours about our favourite stars?

Evidence of this lies within the teaser and the official trailer for the movie. Fresh off the heels and success of Spring Breakers, something tells me this movie will be just as well received as Harmony Korine's candy-coated version of spring break gone wild.

All in all the film and real-life events that inspired it is much more a case study about celebrity culture. Because really, how far are we willing to go to be "just like them"?
