The bobbleheaded strumpets depicted in Sofia Coppola's oddly underrated "THE BLING RING" were, amazingly, real, and amazingly, really vapid. Just as vapid as portrayed. Now, not to condone thievery, but what I personally mourn more than the moral degradation of a pack of reckless youth ("tragic", that) is the fact that, in certain instances, they didn't steal enough.
