The Dark Backstory Behind Alexis Neiers' Iconic ‘Pretty Wild’ Phone Call

The Dark Backstory Behind Alexis Neiers' Iconic ‘Pretty Wild’ Phone Call,
Maybe you barely remember the short-lived Pretty Wild, but you no doubt know the hysterical tear-stained voicemails opening with the iconic, "Nancy Jo, this is Alexis Neiers calling." The phone call, sorry, the several phone calls are now immortalized on the internet as a piece of twisted hilarity. Is it the adamant argument that Alexis wore "4-inch little brown Bebe shoes" instead of Louboutins, or the crazed roar of, "EVERY TIME YOU YELL I HAVE TO F--KING RERECORD IT?" Or is it how "sister" and co-star Tess Taylor has the most IDGAF face of all time? Alexis Neiers' legacy is more tied up to that phone call than the actual show or the slightly fictitious Sophia Coppola movie Bling Ring (which has Emma Watson playing the Alexis surrogate).

And yet there's a dark undertone behind all those screams and sobs, and a shadow falls on top of the meme when you revisit Alexis' struggles at the time...not just the fear of spending her adolescence in prison, but with an all-consuming addiction.
