𝐈𝐭'𝐬 𝟏𝟗𝟖𝟕. The decade of decadence is meeting its end quicker than Claudia Fox can imagine. After a tumultuous childhood and dangerous upbringing in the clubs of Los Angeles, she has mastered her artistic craft, having cemented herself in the history of rock music as 𝐍𝐨𝐯𝐚. But when the delirium of stardom leaves her no place to hide the truth, she continuously falls to substances, and refuels the maniacal stage persona that critics once adored.

After years of being withdrawn from the big stage due to unhealthy sobriety, Claudia has uncovered new grounds of the human psyche: complete and utter hysteria. Unable to stay afloat in the painful estrangement, Columbia Records and her troubled producer send the superstar on the most perilous journey of her life. A journey that will result in her biggest album yet.

But for Michael Jackson, that journey has already started. As ferocious tabloids continue to rip at his seams, the pop phenomenon embarks on a two-year-long trip around the world to promote his long-awaited album. Michael's own struggle with severe anxiety and loneliness prove to hinder his belonging in this world, and his monstrous estate is not making matters any better. Nevertheless, it is the very schemes that his manager pulls together that allows the stars to align for these two disturbed entertainers.

Love and fame both come at a great cost. No matter how painful it can be.
