May 10, 2010— -- A member of the so-called "Bling Ring" that allegedly robbed the homes of celebrities for kicks pleaded no contest today to charges she burglarized the home of "Pirates of the Caribbean" star Orlando Bloom.

Alexis Neiers, an aspiring model who had her own reality TV show "Pretty Wild," entered the plea just before her trial was scheduled to begin.

Neiers, 18, was facing a prison sentence up to six years if convicted, but in taking the deal she was given a two year suspended sentence. In addition, she was given six months in jail and three years probation. If she violates her probation, she will have to serve out the suspended prison term.

She also had to promise to stay away from Bloom's home and pay restitution to the "Lord of the Rings" star. Bloom was expected to testify at Neiers' trial.

Police said Neiers was part of a gang led by a teenage girl who was obsessed with celebrities. They allegedly broke into the homes of the famous, including Bloom, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Rachel Bilson and Audrina Patridge, stealing millions of dollars worth of jewelry, clothing and art in 2008 and 2009.

Neiers, however, was not charged with any of the other burglaries.
