SYNOPSIS
When popstar and teen heartthrob JD McQueen (Aaron Carter) lets fame go to his head, his mother sends him back to school and gives him an ultimatum: pass math or no summer tour! In school, JD meets a classmate and fan, Jane (Alana Austin), who also happens to be the school’s nerdiest math genius. JD quickly gets close to her with the hope that she will help him cheat on his exam, but, when Jane finds out that JD is seeing another girl, she breaks things off, and JD is left to sink or swim on his own. With his career on the line, he realizes that he may, in fact, have fallen for Jane and that he needs to step-up and study to save his career.
