Angelyne The Limited Series

Emmy Rossum is Angelyne . I was visiting LA once and driving up Sunset Blvd and she comes roaring towards us and almost side swipes us. I was not a fan.

No one outside of LA has any idea who Angelyne is, so I predict this will not be successful.

It would be like having a miniseries about Sue Simmons. I would watch that because I've lived in NYC, but who else knows about her other than people who have lived there?

Quite a transformation. Those prosthetic boobs should earn her a few award noms alone.

I think they are pushing the influencer angle for the social media audience.

I'm genuinely suprised at the transformation and performance by Rossum. I've always liked her (though I've heard rumors of her being an entitled cunt on the set of "Shameless", is there truth to that?), but won't be seeing this, because I'm not picking up "Peacock".

Lots of people know who Angelyne is who are not from LA. John Waters wrote about her memorably in one of his books.

She was a Jewish redhead.

She looks mighty rough these days, with the support hose. Just don't ever enter a win a date with Angelyne. You have the honor of taking her to lunch, the grocery store and filling up her car with gas.

What happens when we finally run out of material for limited series, podcasts and vlogs? Do we start all over?

She’s a total LA thing.

I remember seeing her weird billboard in Hollywood when I was a kid and wondering who the fuck that broad is.

Is there enough material there for a 2-hour movie, let alone a whole TV series?

A total whitewash full of revisionist history. The story the way Angelyne herself wants it to be told. For a more accurate picture, read The Hollywood Reporter's story about her whole background and their interview with the guy that was making a documentary about her. The real story would've made a much more compelling show, though much less flattering to her.

I don’t get the Emmy girl. Her appeal escapes me.

What are you an idiot? Millions of people will pick up a book or see a movie they know nothing about. That's what trailers are for, to attract viewers. People who have no idea who she is will get too decide if they re interested in seeing it.

This looks fun! I love the voice she's doing.

She was basically nothing but someone on a billboard. Kind of the ultimate cunt grifter. Did she do.. any kind of work?

We’ll never run out! Imagine all the movies in 20 years about tiktokers alone! “The Charlie D’Amelio Story starring Inez Lively-Reynolds”. “Hype-House: Anatomy of a Crime”

The older she gets, the higher the fan goes up on her face.

R16 That's how the show will be since Angelyne herself is involved with it. She's done everything she could to erase her life prior to becoming Angelyne. It is no persona; she really became Angelyne. Her relationships with those funded her billboard and push to make her a star will be glossed over. It will no doubt stop before her sad, more recent years having to resort to selling old shirts and photos out of the back of her car and scamming unwitting fans. Oh well, with the money she's getting from the show she shouldn't have to do that for a while,

Where'd she get those tits?

I grew up in LA. The 80's were prime time for me. I was in Hollywood almost everyday. Angelyne was always around. Locals said, " oh look, there's Angelyne" and moved on. It was lame flyover losers who couldn't get past her. Those are the dumb cunts who will be watching this.

by Anonymousreply 24May 20, 2022 4:31 AM

The real story of Angelyne would have the vibe of Andy Warhol Paul Morrissey's HEAT, the low life and folie de grandeur, but with vivid 80s color. Angelyne is a cautionary tale of marginality and delusion.

Angelyne is not thrilled with Emmy Rossum because Emmy is not Angelyne!

Fit fat Lukas Gage is sexy in this. In the flashbacks. I can't believe I just typed that. Plus it looks like he put on weight just to play this because usually he is just fit these days.

Emmy as the "older" Angelyne is BEYOND generous. She looks every bit of her 72 years in the flesh, hence why she always has her fan in front of her face

Why not just do a docuseries about the real Angelyne? I don't want to watch some glossy fictionalized crap about a woman who is still alive.

Docuseries? One of those "E! True Hollywood Story" episodes would've sufficed.

Anyone developing a series about Octomom? Or Darva Conger?

Neither of the 2 THR articles I linked discuss any man in Angelyne's life other than her 1st husband before her transformation. Yes she even lied to him about specifics of her background and her mom's tragic death from cancer during their very short marriage.

Truth is that Angelyne used men to pay for her plastic surgery and billboard campaign. Evidence is her still outrageous demands for huge sums of money for the slightest favors. Rumors of the background of some of her patrons have always been a bit unsavory. Perhaps that's why she's so close lipped about it.

So the entire truth about Angelyne will never be fully told although it would be much more interesting.

The tire old whore was grifting, getting men to buy her groceries and gas last I saw. At 70+, who wants to fuck that? She put the moves on me, and her pantyhose were like sandpaper.

Run for your life!

She popped into Wacko Jacko’s a few years ago when I was looking for a Halloween costume, and she was looking pretty rough, but her skin was nice. She must use nuclear strength sunscreen.

How is it whitewashed? The show makes it clear that she's a liar and "bends reality" to her desire

by Anonymousreply 44May 20, 2022 11:14 PM

The documentarian that Lukas Gage plays is PATHETIC. Stupid little rich boy that spent 5 years and a bunch of Daddy's money being Angelyne's errand boy.

THR says his last known job was managing the family's real estate holdings. I'm surprised he wasn't cut off.

by Anonymousreply 45May 20, 2022 11:16 PM

I watched the series. Emmy Rossum, Martin Freeman and Hamish Linklater were good but it should have been an 80-minute movie. And why did 'old Angelyne' look like Amanda Bynes?

I've read THR article, and it seems like about 10 years are unaccounted for, between her divorce and when she joined the punk band.

I’m from NY and know who she is/was. She was a celebrity known for her big tits and the color pink....Kind of like a Kardashion but from a different generation

She's the original Kim Kardashian, famous without a lick of talent yet she wasn't desperate enough to fuck on camera.

I find this just the right ticket to sorta watch without having to really pay attention.

R49 As much as I don't care for Kim Kardashian and her whole family (I'd be perfectly fine with never seeing or hearing about them ever again) at least she seems to be a pleasant person and is nice to people that she works and interacts with. Angelyne seems unpleasant unless someone is buying something from her and often, she can be rude then. Lots of stories of her being rude. And she is painful to watch being interviewed. There is no 'there' there.
