Scott Johnson, investigative reporter and author, discusses The Apple TV+ three-part docuseries Hollywood Con Queen, which explores the shocking story behind one of Hollywood’s biggest scams.
A mysterious figure dubbed the ‘Con Queen’ impersonates the industry’s most powerful women, luring unsuspecting victims to Indonesia with the promise of a life-changing career opportunity. The ‘Con Queen’s’ marks exhaust their personal finances in pursuit of a big break, while being exploited in a perverse psychological game spanning the globe.
