Who is Angeline? For many years, her American fans have asked similar questions, but she was able to hide her secrets and keep the public in the dark. “Angelyne” tells the story of a flamboyant lady who managed to put up banners with her image all over Los Angeles, without doing anything for which she could be remembered…
“Angelyne ss 2”: release date, announcement
The continuation of the biographical TV show “Angelyne” has not been officially announced. However, the very high ratings of the season 1 indicate one thing: the TV series was well received by the audience. So does it make sense for them to close the project after the release of only one season? According to film critics, the continuation will be released and, presumably, in the spring of 2023, if the filming of new episodes will begin as early as June 2022.
Plot
80s. In one popular bar, the band Baby Blue often performed. The public loved them, but this did not bring brilliant success. The maximum circulation of sold-out discs was no more than a thousand copies. One day one of the band members, Cory Hunt, noticed a charming lady in the hall. Her style was different from the rest of the girls, so the beauty stood out noticeably from their background.
Cory was very impressed — Barbie herself was sitting in front of him. Blond hair, delicate manners, frankly bright outfit, catchy makeup — at first he thought that this was one of the easily accessible ladies that a man forgets the next day. But Angelyne was different. And even though she looked frank, the girl never let him into her apartment after 22.00.
Cory was ready for anything to make Angelyne his wife, a man in love even gave her an expensive car. But the girl did not need marriage. Angelyne soon decided that she wanted to sing in a band. It did not bring any changes in terms of popularity, and even the half-naked covers of new albums are not of interest to the public. This was of little concern to Angelyne, because the stage was not her final destination on the way to the goal.
Soon the first difficulties arose between Angelyne and Cory. Deciding not to focus on relationships, the girl leaves him and goes her own way. And then endless billboards appear all over Los Angeles, on which the girl poses in the most revealing outfits.
The locals begin to question her talents and accomplishments. But no one finds any confirmation of her merits. Then in 2015, journalist Jeff Glaser decides to interview the most mysterious lady of the past century. After a long silence, Angelyne decides to have a meeting where she herself will choose the duration, questions and topics for conversations of the upcoming interview. Deciding that this is a great chance to tell the world about a stranger, Jeff goes to the appointed place. This is how the veil of Angelyne’s secrets opens, and many finally begin to realize the reasons why the bright girl never wanted to talk about her past…
The TV show either takes us to the distant past, or sends us to the future. Scenes from Angelyne’s life are shown both from her own words and from the words of those with whom she was once close…
