The psychotic Ellen Parker
Ellen Parker (Lauren Cole) is the main villainess from the 2025 Lifetime film, I Am Your Biggest Fan (originally titled, Reboot Gone Wrong; airdate May 3, 2025).
Backstory[]
Ellen Parker's backstory revealed that as a child, her parents often argued with each other, and Ellen's outlet against the dysfunctional household was a sitcom known as From the Hart, which starred main protagonist Delilah Douglas as Chelsea Hart. The opening scene showed young Ellen watching the show while her parents engaged in another shouting match with each other, with Ellen idolizing the show and Delilah's character, while seeing the Harts as the dream family she longed for. Ellen's fandom of the show (and especially "Chelsea") became an obsession, and after seeing her dysfunctional parents as an obstacle, Ellen murdered her parents and set her hopes on a friendship with Delilah.
Events[]
The film's events saw Ellen working as a barista and encountering Delilah for the first time, with Delilah (now a teacher) mentioning that her students found out about her past as a child actress, while also revealing that a reboot of From the Hart is in the works, though Delilah voiced her stance against participating in the reboot due to the bad experiences she had doing the original show. The film's progression saw Delilah on the receiving end of stalking and harassment for her refusal to do the reboot, which included harassing texts and letters, and her car being vandalized. The latter attack resulted in Ellen taking Delilah to her own home to hide out, and once there, the two women bonded over their difficult families.
However, Delilah walked into Ellen's secret room and found notebooks idolizing Chelsea, which contrasted Ellen's earlier claim that she hadn't heard of the show. Ellen confronts Delilah, which ends with Ellen drugging Delilah and locking her up in a replica of Chelsea's room on the show. The madwoman later calls Delilah over and watches the show with her, while calling Delilah "Chelsea." Delilah stated that Chelsea wasn't real, leading to Ellen lashing out at Delilah, who decided to play along while making an escape plan which involved taking Ellen's keys. However, Ellen drugs Delilah again and scolds her for her actions, while telling Delilah that she had to earn Ellen's trust in her back.
Climax[]
Delilah's latest attempt escape saw her bruised and injured due to Ellen's booby traps, with Ellen later informing Delilah that she was protecting her from the people who were harassing her, with Ellen shocking Delilah by stating that she wasn't behind any of the attacks against her. The climax saw Cody James (Delilah's co-star from the show) appear to save Delilah, only to be drugged and captured by Ellen, who referred to Cody by his character name, Danny. The villainess watched as "Chelsea" and "Danny" played their roles and kissed, and she also witnessed "Chelsea" angrily confronting "Danny" with a bat, only for Delilah to knock out Ellen with the bat and escape with Cody.
The escape saw Delilah learn that Cody was behind the harassment and vandalism towards her, as he was trying to force Delilah to participate in the reboot. At that moment, Ellen ran down Cody in her car, and she later took out a gun and fired shots at Delilah, who she accused of betraying her. During her rant, Ellen revealed to Delilah that she killed her parents so she could live in her house with Delilah, and she later lashed out at Cody and blamed him for ruining everything. Delilah calmed Ellen down from her rampage, with the police arriving and arresting Ellen afterwards.
