Julian Alters' parents never supported his dream of becoming a musician. His wife, Brooke, worked two jobs in order to support their family. Brooke worked as a nutritionist at a local hospital and at an all girls private school, but she had dreams of opening her own clinic. Julian played local gigs at various bars throughout Manhattan. Brooke and Julian were barely making ends meet. But when Sony Records signs Julian to a record deal, Brooke and Julian are on their way to stardom. However, their brush with fame turns into a nightmare for their marriage.

When Julian signs with Sony, Brooke is ecstatic that her husband's long life dream is finally coming true. Julian is transformed from a struggling local musician into a megastar when he is booked on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. Brooke can hardly believe that Julian and her are flying to Los Angeles and staying at the legendary Chateau Marmont -- Hollywood's celebrities' home away from home. When Brooke and Julian are sharing a drink with Jon Bon Jovi, Brooke realizes that her life will never be the same again.

After Julian's appearance on The Tonight Show, his fame reaches new heights, especially when the paparazzi has a field day with him at a celebrity party. Soon Julian Alters' name becomes a household word. Julian's agent books Julian for performances around the country. Reality finally starts to set in for Brooke when she is forced to return to her job in Manhattan without Julian.
