The film is an honest attempt to make mockumentary and stuff it with as many clichés and nudges as possible about the entertainment world.
Several guest stars playing themselves did help a bit to create the atmosphere.
It leads us through patches in the career of a pop rap musician in his plight for a place in the spotlight after he had fall out with his boy band members. Think of Robbie Williams going solo or something like that but without heavy drugs or drinking. Mine favourite is from Mariah Carrey, who probably _is_ the most humble person she knows : )
The plot is quite predictable from the start, there were some nice twists though. The most of the songs are really politically incorrect, (even reminded a bit of Borat franchise). The last song is actually a hoot, no pun intended : ) ..
Final thought:
If you into this kind of films the documentary about Heath Ledger if definitely worth watching.
