action

Courtney is an ambitious young singer and dancer. She makes music with her friends. Courtney's big goal is to once again with her group "Spectacular!" to get all the way to the top. The Show Choir Contest is just what you need, because in addition to the title, there is also a hefty prize money to be won. Actually everything would be perfect, but Courtney's ex-boyfriend Royce, who is also the lead singer of the band, is tying up with the singer Tammie from the competition. This leads to arguments between him and "Spectacular!", Who are bullied by Tammie. Eventually, Courtney throws her ex out of the band. This then changes, angry about this decision, to Tammie's band "Ta-Da!". Courtney can, with some difficulty, win over the talented Nikko for her group, who was also kicked out of his band. In return, however, she has to offer him half of the prize money because he wants to start his solo career. Nikko finds it a little difficult to dance, but loosens up the group a bit and brings along spontaneity and above all enthusiasm. Courtney dislikes this at all, despite her unacknowledged affection for Nikko; she is of the opinion that everything must be well rehearsed. So she reveals to the band that she will give Nikko half the prize money. Now both of them have rejected the band and have to work hard to get back on good terms with "Spectacular!" to stand. When Nikko gets the opportunity to perform with his old band, he gets into a dilemma: because the show choir contest is on the same day. He excludes himself from the rehearsals, but before the contest, Courtney comes to him and kisses him. Nikko's thoughts are with her and the band, so he doesn't sing very well. When the contest is already in full swing and "Ta-Da" has made an excellent performance, Nikko joins the show and thus reconciles with the band and Courtney. However, "Ta-Da!" the contest because Nikko was not registered and that for the disqualification of "Spectacular!" leads. Nevertheless, the band feels like a winner, because they should now record a CD together with Nikko. Tammie breaks up with Royce as soon as she holds the prize cup in her hands. Even before the contest, he tried to sneak into Courtney's home because he saw her singing with Nikko. But that leaves Courtney cold now. You and Nikko become a couple.
