Aubrey Plaza to Play Infamous Madam Heidi Fleiss: Actress Warns of Challenges Ahead
Heidi Fleiss Spills Tea on Aubrey Plaza's Upcoming Biopic Role: "She's Got Her Work Cut Out for Her!"
In a shocking turn of events, the infamous Hollywood madam Heidi Fleiss has given her two cents on Aubrey Plaza's upcoming biopic role as herself. Fleiss, 59, was caught off guard by the news that the 41-year-old Parks and Recreation actress would be playing her in The Heidi Fleiss Story.
"I'm pleasantly shocked," Fleiss told thescholarlynote.com in a candid interview. "I've never met Aubrey Plaza and never even heard about it, but wow! I think it's fantastic." But don't let that warm reception fool you - Fleiss isn't afraid to speak her mind.
"Aubrey Plaza has got her work cut out for her," Fleiss warned. "You know, I hate to have to live with me, and now she has to play me." Ouch! It seems like Heidi is giving Aubrey a reality check about the challenges of playing a notorious madam with a dark past.
But amidst all the drama, Fleiss also shared some words of encouragement for Plaza. "She's going to be great," she said with a hint of sincerity. "I think she'll do justice to my story."
For those who may not know, Heidi Fleiss is no stranger to controversy. In her heyday as a madam in the 1990s, she ran a high-end prostitution ring catering to wealthy clients in Hollywood. But her empire came crashing down when she was arrested in 1993 on charges of pandering, tax evasion, and money laundering.
Fleiss was eventually convicted of federal tax evasion charges in 1996 and sentenced to seven years in prison. She served only 20 months before being released to a halfway house, where she completed the rest of her sentence. But that's not all - Fleiss has been open about her struggles with addiction and has even dabbled in mainstream television, appearing on Celebrity Big Brother in 2010.
Today, Heidi lives in Pahrump, Nevada, surrounded by her beloved Macaws and parrots. She's still got a knack for causing a stir, though - she's currently working on a new venture called The List by Heidi Fleiss, a content creator platform that aims to rival OnlyFans.
"I'm all about giving creators more control over their own work," Fleiss explained. "OnlyFans takes 20 percent of what these creators make, and most of them aren't making any real money - they're struggling to get by. With The List, we'll be more favorable for the creators." It sounds like Heidi is on a mission to shake up the adult entertainment industry once again.
But amidst all the glamour and controversy, Fleiss remains true to her misanthropic views. "Humanity has had one purpose," she claimed, "and that's to destroy everything as quickly as possible. That's our only purpose." Ouch! It seems like Heidi is still got a bit of an edge.
As for Aubrey Plaza, it looks like she's got her work cut out for her indeed. But we can't wait to see how she brings the infamous madam to life on the big screen. Stay tuned, folks - this biopic is shaping up to be one wild ride!
