Meet twenty-two-year-old Cherry Pye (nรฉe Cheryl Bunterman), a pop star since she was fourteenโand about to attempt a comeback from her latest drug-and-alcohol disaster.
Now meet Cherry again: in the person of her โundercover stunt double,โ Ann DeLusia. Ann portrays Cherry whenever the singer is too โindisposedโโmeaning wastedโto go out in public. And it is Ann-mistaken-for-Cherry who is kidnapped from a South Beach hotel by obsessed paparazzo Bang Abbott.
Now the challenge for Cherryโs handlers (รผberโstage mother; horndog record producer; nipped, tucked, and Botoxed twin publicists; weed whackerโwielding bodyguard) is to rescue Ann while keeping her existence a secret from Cherryโs publicโand from Cherry herself.
The situation is more complicated than they know. Ann has had a bewitching encounter with Skinkโthe unhinged former governor of Florida living wild in a mangrove swampโand now heโs heading for Miami to find her . . .
Will Bang Abbott achieve his fantasy of a lucrative private photo session with Cherry Pye? Will Cherry sober up in time to lip-synch her way through her concert tour? Will Skink track down Ann DeLusia before Cherryโs motley posse does?
All will be revealed in this hilarious spin on life in the celebrity fast lane.
