Synopsis

“ Hollywood, the city where fame is the game. In this town, perception is everything. But nothing is ever what it seems. Success isn't guarenteed, especially when it comes to love. For some, fame and fortune come easily, but so does temptation. There's always someone on the rise, looking to steal the spotlight. But with every thorn, comes a rose worth protecting. In Hollywood, fighting for love is a losing battle, when the heart you want has no desire to be won. And for others, a future in love is threatened by the past. Welcome to Hollywood, where only a chosen few get invited to the party. Cause it ain't all fair, in love and hip hop. ”
— Mona Scott-Young, opening monologue
