About Lethally Blonde

Lethally Blonde looks like a show about cases involving blonde murderers, but in actuality, not all of the killers in its episodes are blonde, and not all of the episodes focus on the murderer. All of the cases, however, feature victims or killers who worked in the adult entertainment industry, from pornography and Only Fans, to exotic dancing and bikini modeling, work that influenced the eventual murders that occurred.

Perhaps executive producer Holly Madison (former Playboy model and producer of The Playboy Murders) wanted to follow up that show with even more salacious stories of sex and murder. Hence the title. But if you’re looking for a show that fits the literal meaning of the title and features only killer blondes, you’ll be disappointed. Some are killers, and some are victims. Some are blonde, some aren’t.

Madison provides commentary, as in The Playboy Murders, and detectives and victim’s loved ones recount the stories of the murders, investigations, and the careers that led to the crimes.

Playboy-related homicide cases

About The Playboy Murders

You don’t hear much about scandals related to Playboy, much less murders. But The Playboy Murders sheds light on murders of Playboy models and people related to them and delves into how the franchise sometimes directly or indirectly impacted these homicides.

Detectives, victims’ loved ones, writers, and those involved in the Playboy operation detail the cases, along with Playmate and Hugh Hefner’s former girlfriend Holly Madison (an executive producer of the show). She provides commentary and lets viewers in on some of the secrets behind the Playboy franchise. (For more on its secrets, check out Secrets of Playboy.)

Disappointingly, few cases relate to actual Playmates; these include Star Stowe, Dorothy Stratten, and Victoria Vetri. Other cases in the true crime show involve web or international Playboy models like Christina Carlin-Kraft and Kelsey Turner.
