Stan's new series Angelyne is here, exploring the fantastical world of Angelyne herself - a media personality who rose to prominence in Hollywood during the '80s thanks to her iconic car, billboards and blonde hair.
Before there was the Kardashian family or Paris Hilton, there was Angelyne, arguably the first real 'influencer' of her time, who was simply famous for being famous.
And that's what Stan's new series captures - the true (ish) story behind the woman herself and the revelations about her personal life that arose decades after her initial rise to fame.
With that in mind, Angelyne is all about fame, identity, survival, billboards, Corvettes, lingerie, and a whole lot of mystery. Plus, the show examines influencer culture before reality TV and social media even came into existence.
And she is played by none other than stellar actress Emmy Rossum.
Take a look at the trailer for Stan's Angelyne. Post continues below.
Throughout the '80s, Angelyne built a brand new identity for herself with the sole focus on obtaining fame.
She organised for images of herself to be featured across billboards in Los Angeles, California, posing suggestively and emulating the 'blonde bombshell' mystic.
From there she would be paid for media or party appearances, offered roles in films, recorded music, and did magazine interviews and television shows.
What was perhaps the biggest celebrity symbol attached to Angelyne was also her iconic pink Corvette convertible, which she regularly drove around Los Angeles to be spotted by fans. She also sold images and merchandise with her face and name on them, as well as charging fans to take a picture with her.
