Quiet teenager Marc Hall transfers to
Indian Hills High School in
Agoura Hills, California. He befriends fame-obsessed Rebecca Ahn. While at a party at her house, Rebecca persuades Marc to sneak away with her and steal valuables from unlocked vehicles on the streets. As they begin hanging out regularly, Marc starts to view Rebecca as a sister figure. One day, when Marc mentions that a wealthy acquaintance of his is vacationing in
Jamaica, Rebecca convinces Marc to join her in breaking into the empty house, where she steals money, a handbag similar to one that her idol
Lindsay Lohan has, cash and the keys to a
Porsche, that they use to flee the scene. They go on a shopping spree with the money, buying luxury items. Marc visits a nightclub with Rebecca and meets her friend Chloe Tainer, along with sisters Nicki and Sam Moore. The group notices celebrities
Kirsten Dunst and
Paris Hilton. Later, while researching Paris on the internet, Marc and Rebecca learn she is out of town. They find her address, go to her house and on finding a key under the doormat,
break in. They go through Paris's belongings and take some of her jewelry, including a bracelet that Rebecca later flaunts to Nicki, Sam, and Chloe at a party. At Nicki's request, Rebecca and Marc take her, Sam, and Chloe back to Paris's house. They marvel at Paris's lavish lifestyle and steal shoes, bags, dresses, cash, and jewelry. A drunk Chloe gets into an accident while driving away; she is arrested and sentenced to community service. Marc and Rebecca return to rob Paris's house a third time and are nearly discovered by security. They then rob the home of
Audrina Patridge, using the internet to determine when she will not be home, and later sell unwanted items at an outdoor market. The group burgles the home of
Megan Fox, Nicki's younger sister Emily squeezing through a
pet door to get in. Nicki discovers a handgun inside, and Sam playfully threatens Marc with it before taking it to her boyfriend Rob's home. When he grabs her, the gun goes off, though no one is injured. The group later robs the home of
Orlando Bloom and his girlfriend,
Miranda Kerr. Marc finds a case filled with seven of Orlando's
Rolex watches and a roll of cash. Chloe helps Marc sell the watches to her friend Ricky, a nightclub manager. The teens later return to Paris's house with Rob, who finds and steals large amounts of jewelry. A news report containing
security footage from the robbery at Patridge's home concerns Marc, but Rebecca is undeterred. She instigates a burglary at the home of
Rachel Bilson, and the group ultimately breaks into Lindsay Lohan's house and robs it. Shortly thereafter, Rebecca moves to Las Vegas with her father, ostensibly due to troubles at home, leaving some of her stolen items with Marc. Media coverage of the
Hollywood Hills burglaries intensifies, the public labeling the criminals "The Bling Ring". The authorities identify the group using security footage, statements from peers who heard the teens brag about their exploits, and photographs of the stolen items posted by the group on social media sites. Marc, Nicki, Chloe, Rebecca, Rob, and Ricky are arrested; Sam, who was not caught on camera, is able to avoid suspicion. A remorseful Marc cooperates with the police, informing them of details of the burglaries, much to the chagrin of Rebecca, whom he identifies as the ringleader. A
Vanity Fair journalist interviews Marc, still apparently exhibiting regret for his actions, but amazed at how much attention he has got and Nicki, who claims the others were at fault and she is a religious humanitarian. When the group is prosecuted, they receive varying amounts of jail time and are ordered to pay millions of dollars in
restitution for the stolen items. Marc is transported to prison, alone among various older criminals. Some time later, Nicki recounts her 30 days in jail on a talk show and reveals that Lindsay was in the same facility at the same time. She then turns to the camera and promotes her website, where people can learn everything about her "journey". ==Cast==
