A funny look at people who will do anything to get famous... or stay famous.
The career and personal life of writer Lee are at a standstill, so he divorces his bashful wife, Robin, and dives into a new job as an entertainment journalist.

Meanwhile, top TV producer Tony falls for Robin and introduces her to the world of celebrity.
