Life changes for a mom (Jana Kramer) who runs an escort service in “Soccer Mom Madam.”
Country singer Jana Kramer stars as a mom who runs an escort service in “Soccer Mom Madam.”
Jana Kramer loves doing holiday movies but couldn’t resist when producers offered her the lead in “Soccer Mom Madam.”
“The script is so amazing,” the country singer admits. “It’s fun and it’s sassy and there’s depth to it. There’s something about really going there – vulnerably and emotionally. It’s why I love acting so much.”
In the Lifetime film – part of the network’s “Summer of Secrets” – Kramer plays a mom who goes to work for a cousin at a massage parlor. Once she understands what’s really going on, she establishes her own escort service. Those who live in her Westchester suburb have no idea about the after-hours work.
Based on a 2012 case involving Anna Gristina. Kramer got to talk to Gristina, who ran the escort service, and wondered how closely she needed to be to the real woman, particularly since Gristina has an accent. “I started freaking out as an actor because, ‘What if I don’t live up to who she is and her mannerisms?’”
Executive Producer Orly Adelson reminded her that the film was “based” on a true story. She encouraged her to bring her own feelings into it. “The marriage of both those really worked well.”
Kramer, Adelson says, managed to show vulnerability, strength and likability. “Watching her film every day was really thrilling – to see how she could move quickly between these mine fields.”
