Truly awful rich kid vanity projects
I follow Alessandra Ambrosio, the Brazilian supermodel, on Instagram. She recently posted about a short film made by her teenaged daughter.
It obviously had a lot of money thrown at it. And it was promoted by her and one or two other celebrities. It’s delightfully awful — so terrible it’s a must see.
I love truly cringe vanity projects. Please share any you’ve seen. They’re like nectar.

I only watched a minute. Blech. It has the same production values as a typical porno. Maybe adding porn scenes might have saved it.

Larry Elison is buying CBS/Paramount for his spawn to wreck into a rightwing smear and lie machine, so there is that.

One that actually comes close to working, but then goes hilariously off the rails, is Neriah, Brooke Burke’s daughter with a wealthy Beverly Hills plastic surgeon.
She wants to be a pop star. She’s obviously extremely well funded by her dad. And to be fair, she actually has a lot going for her. She’s pretty, she can carry a tune, the production values are high because a lot of money is being thrown at it. The instrumentation is pretty good as well.
Where it all goes pear-shaped is the lyrics.
She seems to think she needs to be the lyricist to be a true star (which is actually usually not true). Her lyrics are hilarious.
Here’s a TikTok, the lyrics are usually textually represented because she’s obviously very proud of them. 😃 If you scroll through her TT you’ll see lots of these little song excerpts, with lyrics. They’re comic gold. She’s in her mid 20s, but writes like a twelve year old girl.
