Angelyne, The Pre-Internet Influencer
Angelyne is a familiar name to people from Los Angeles, California, back in the 1980s. No one knows who she is, but she is famous because she promotes herself through billboards. No one knew who she was back then, but she was notable because of her billboards. Her signature looks are blonde hair, blue eyes, and bosoms that will make Dolly Parton look like a ballerina. The Pornstars of the 1980s might have seen her as an influence because they emulated her looks.
Angelyne paid for those billboards because she wanted to be famous
So who is this woman who promotes herself through the Billboards of California? Back in 1984, she is a Singer-actress who struggles through auditions, and she tries to find a way to advertise herself and rise to stardom. How did she afford to have Billboards to promote herself? Her Billboards did give her some opportunities that gave her a cult following. Some people say that Paris Hilton is the original influencer because she is popular because of being popular. Angelyne might actually be the original one before the Internet, and Social Media is a thing. Her Billboards made appearances in some movies and even an episode of the Simpsons.
Peacock produces an unauthorized Biopic of the Billboard Queen with Emmy Rossum playing Angelyne. The series will give us a whimsical take on the Singer’s life, who is ahead of her time. Emmy transformed by using Breastplate so she could be as curvy as the woman she plays. Rossum is committed to the role, so she deserves to win a similar award to the first name.

The Real Angelyne is such an interesting character because she even tried to run for governor of California. She only got 18th place in the election but not bad for an Independent candidate.

There is always someone before the one we thought was the first. When you think about it, they too would have been influenced by someone else. We came to know about Paris because of technology but this biopic is proving that even back when it wasn’t so easy to get exposure, people like Angelyne were very much doing their thing Now I see the similarities between her looks and some of the more popular icons.

It’s truly interesting to know how people think of ways in order to promote themselves even before the discovery of the new technology. I admire her for her resourcefulness and creativity.

Why is a flatty playing Angyline? Emmy Rossum is flat as a board and she is playing a voluptuous lady.

I’m delighted to see Emmy in another project after “Shameless,” and this one sounds promising so far! I’ve been a fan since she portrayed Christine in Phantom of the Opera, and I’m overjoyed to see this. Emmy deserves more attention and parts, therefore I’m overjoyed to see this. She didn’t get enough credit for her performance on Shameless.

Angelyne was years ahead of the Kardashians and almost everyone on YouTube today. Her billboards used to be all over the place, and she developed a cult following as a result.
