Just days before "Pretty Wild" star Tess Taylor checked into rehab for drugs ... she was modeling for a new line of clothing that promotes hardcore alcohol consumption ... and TMZ has learned there are no plans to stop production.

Taylor -- a model by trade -- had booked a gig with the Young N' Reckless clothing company ... owned by "Fantasy Factory" star Chris 'Drama' Pfaff.

One of the new YNR shirts features Taylor double-fisting 40-ounce bottles, punctuated with the words "White Girl Wasted."

Two weeks after the shoot, Taylor checked into rehab for heroin addiction -- her 2nd stint in rehab in a year.

But despite Taylor's personal demons, a rep for YNR tells us business is business ... saying, "We plan on releasing the shirts nationwide in March or April."

Tess Taylor -- model, former reality star, and sister to Burglar Buncher Alexis Neiers -- has entered rehab for a heroin addiction ... TMZ has learned.

Sources close to Tess tell us, she entered the Pasadena Recovery Center last Sunday -- after her felony drug possession arrest last month. We're told the arrest was the primary catalyst behind her seeking treatment again.

Tess entered rehab for an opiate addiction one year ago -- but quit after 30 days.

Sources tell us, her family had nearly given up on Tess after she pulled out of rehab last year -- but when the reality star hit rock bottom after her most recent arrest ... they helped usher her back into treatment.

As for how Tess plans to pay the massive medical bills -- we're told several family friends are pitching in ... and she's expecting a $20,000 check from Sofia Coppola within the month, which should alleviate some financial pressure.

The check is for Tess' role as a consultant on the Burglar Bunch film Sofia is currently developing.

Andrea Neiers tells TMZ, "I hope Tess takes this opportunity to work on herself and become someone she will be proud of, and who can help other young people avoid making the same choices."
 

Tess Taylor -- model, former reality star, and sister to Burglar Buncher Alexis Neiers -- was arrested earlier this month for felony drug possession ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Taylor was busted on January 9 for felony possession of a controlled substance. She was held on $10,000 bail and released two days later.

Taylor checked into rehab last year for an addiction to opiates. Despite originally planning to stay in treatment for a year, she left the Malibu rehab center after just one month. 

Calls to Taylor were not returned.

Sofia Coppola is once again casting her lens on Hollywood -- but she's not focusing on movie stars this time, but rather the people who stole from them!

According to our sources, Coppola is developing a film based on the infamous Burglar Bunch. We're told the film, which would be produced by daddy Francis' Zoetrope studio, does not have a start date or even a script yet.

Sources close to the project tell TMZ ... producers approached Burgler Buncher Nick Prugo about being a consultant on the film, but he declined. We're told Tess Taylor, sister of Buncher Alexis Neiers, has now signed on to the project.

Calls to Coppola were not returned.

Ironic ... Burglar Bunch suspect Nick Prugo doesn't like people borrowing from him -- in fact, he tells TMZ he plans to sue over the new "Bling Ring" movie ... claiming Lifetime STOLE his likeness for profit.


Nick tells us, “I had no prior knowledge of this and am not affiliated in any way. I want to sue if possible. I’m in touch with my attorneys right now.”

He adds, "I just read the sides for my supposed part. I had to laugh. It's total fiction. They are filming somewhere this weekend for a club scene in Los Angeles. Maybe I'll drop by and surprise them."

But not everyone's pissed -- fellow BB suspect Tess Taylor tells us, she's best suited to act in the made-for-TV movie ... because she knows the truth ... "Where is the casting? I want to audition for a role."

So far, the "Bling Ring" movie doesn't have an official release date -- but you can expect to catch it later this summer.

                                                               

“Pretty Wild” star Tess Taylor has checked herself out of rehab after 30 days of treatment for a major opiate addiction… TMZ has learned.



As we previously reported, Taylor voluntarily entered a treatment center last month after family members urged the 21-year-old to seek help. 

Sources close to Taylor tell TMZ ... Tess is telling friends she's clean and sober ... and intends to stay that way.

"Pretty Wild" star Tess Taylor has checked in to a rehabilitation center in Malibu to kick an addiction to opiates ... TMZ has learned.



Taylor's mother, Andrea Arlington, tells us, "Approximately two weeks ago after a lot of coaxing from sister Alexis Neiers and myself, and after almost losing her life, Tess Taylor contacted Greg Hannley, owner of the SOBA Recovery center in Malibu and asked for help."

Arlington tells us Tess weighed only 93 pounds at the time she decided to seek help ... noting that Taylor was "extremely weak and exhausted from trying to detox and recover from Opiate addiction."

Taylor plans to stay at the center for the entire 12-month program.

There's some serious drama behind the scenes on the reality show "Pretty Wild" -- TMZ has learned one of the stars is refusing to speak to certain members of the cast ... including her adoptive mother.


Sources close to the production tell us Playboy model Tess Taylor has cut herself off from the family that once took her in ... which is a problem because the show is based around the family.

We're told Taylor got into a "big blow up" with her sister -- Burglar Bunch member Alexis Neiers -- right before Alexis went to jail ... and now Taylor still refuses to make peace.

Sources close to Taylor tell us the 20-year-old feels excluded from the family -- which adopted her at a young age -- telling close friends, "No matter how many times people can tell you that you are a part of 'their' family ... there is still something that is just different."

Not everyone is high on the newly surfaced topless bong-smoking photos of "Pretty Wild" star Tess Taylor   -- in fact, one advertiser is trying to pull their spots off the show in the wake of the scandal.



TMZ has learned the dating website eHarmony.com has reached out to E! -- after the risque photos appeared on TheDirty.com.

A rep for eHarmony tells us the company's ads were appearing on "Wild" because they bought unspecific advertising space with the E! network -- and that's simply where they ended up ... but not anymore.

The rep says eHarmony is now requesting that their ads never run during the show again because they "do not endorse its content." 

A rep for E! had no comment on the sticky icky situation.

Tess Taylor -- one of the stars of the reality show "Pretty Wild" -- is fighting mad over some nude pics of her that just surfaced on a website ... and now she wants them taken down, or else.



TMZ has obtained a cease and desist letter Taylor's lawyer sent to TheDirty.com, which posted topless pics of Tess holding a giant bong.

In the letter, Taylor's lawyer says the pics were posted "illegally" and violate her privacy ... their legal eagle is threatening legal action against website owner Nik Richie unless he takes down the pics ... stat.

Alleged Burglar Bunch hottie and E! reality star Alexis Neiers is being accused of trying to steal some cash -- only this time from an ordinary peon.

Alexis and her sister, Tess Taylor, hosted a party at Primal nightclub Saturday night. Sources close to the girls (and multiple club employees) tell TMZ during the course of the evening, the "Pretty Wild" sisters went to the employee lounge several times to use the bathroom. At the end of the evening, the girls were stopped by security and their purses were searched.

We're told security found the ID of a female employee and around $200 cash (allegedly belonging to the employee) in Alexis' purse. Cops were called.

Sources say Alexis told the Atlanta PD she had no idea where the ID came from and that the cash was hers. But, to avoid an incident, we're told she gave back the ID and the money. The cops let the girls go. No charges have been filed. 

BTW -- Alexis is due in court this week for the Burglar Bunch's alleged greatest hits.

Primal nightclub just gave us this statement, saying Alexis and Tess "were in no way for certain involved in anything illegal or any other type of misconduct."
