2007 RITA Award winner for Best Contemporary Single Title
As a talented singer-guitarist with a dream of going pro,
Alegría Montero is getting fed up with the endless, boring
parade of quinceañeras and other family party gigs. She's
longing for something bigger. And Oye Mi Canto -- a new
reality TV show that's searching for the next Latin
superstar -- is definitely that. Ali figures she'll never
make the cut, but auditioning seems like a good way to get
her overprotective father to take her ambitions seriously. To Ali's complete shock, she passes her audition. Next
thing she knows, she's dealing with wardrobe fittings,
cameras, reporters, vocal coaches, and websites designed by
lovestruck fanboys. She's also dealing with jealousy,
malice, and sabotage among the contestants, all of which
has her wondering: Is it really time to shoot for the stars
and try to win the whole competition, or is it time to
say "Cut!" and become a normal teenager again?
