## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

A nobody with bubblegum pipes gets plugged into the neon circuit and suddenly the world screams her name. The trade-off for overnight fame turns out to be a boyfriend whose headphones are also a control board. By the time the smoke clears it’s hard to tell which glitter is costume and which is shrapnel.
