A woman finds having a high profile career and a romance with a famous musician can have both ups and downs in this urban-themed
comedy-drama.
Mia Moore (
Chrystale Wilson) is a young woman who is trying to get her career as an entertainment reporter off the ground, but so far the best she's been able to do is hosting a video show on public access cable. Short on money,
Mia gets a rommate,
Pancake (
Naki Brown), which turns out to be a major stroke of luck for
Mia --
Pancake is able to introduce
Mia to
Marvin (
Machion Garrison), who works for television producer
Derrek Lassten (
Bill Nunn).
Lassten is looking for hosts for his new show "Backstage Entertainment," and
Marvin thinks
Mia might be just what he's looking for.
Lassten agrees, and
Mia has finally landed the sort of job she's been dreaming of. One of
Mia's first assignments is to interview rapper
Gipp (
Big Gipp), and
Mia and
Gipp soon discover they have a more than professional interest in one another. But while
Mia is in love with
Gipp, she doesn't want to seem unprofessional to her employers, while
Gipp isn't sure if
Mia is sincere, or if she's only interested in him as a way of advancing her career.
