In this series, Madison introduces us to starry-eyed aspirants with big dreams who find themselves in a dark world that exploits their sexuality.
“I’m honored to continue working with ID in bringing these compelling true crime stories to life,” said executive producer, Holly Madison. “We had the chance to delve into some fascinating worlds and cover so many gripping cases this year that explore obsession and murder that tragically affected so many. Being able to relate to their journey, I love ID’s victim focused approach to storytelling and detailed portrayal of these harrowing events. While some cases remain unsolved today, these are real people and I wanted to help shine a spotlight on these stories.”
Over the course of six episodes, Lethally Blonde offers insight into tragic stories ripped straight from the headlines, exposing the dark side of people pursuing success using their physical beauty and sexuality. The premiere episode, “Too Fast Too Furious” premiering on March 25 at 10/9c, follows the case of Courtney Clenney. Clenney, a successful fitness influencer turned OnlyFans performer, was living the high life with her Crypto-trader boyfriend – until one night when police find him stabbed to death.
