Barbie: The Princess & the Popstar Page #3

Synopsis: In this sparkling musical adventure, Barbie(TM) stars as Tory(TM), the kind-hearted princess of Meribella who would rather sing and dance than perform her royal duties. When her favorite pop star Keira(TM) visits the Kingdom, the girls discover they have much in common, including a magical secret that lets them look like one another. At first, swapping places seems like a great idea, until each girl realizes that the other's life isn't as easy as it seems! But Meribella also has a magical secret, and when it's stolen, the whole kingdom is put in danger. Will true friendship save the day? Filled with fantastic songs, fabulous fashions, and fun new friends, it's an exciting musical celebration that shows the best thing you can be is yourself.

That was close!

I thought she'd

ground us both!

That may be the scariest

woman I've ever met.

And today was a good day!

Look, this was awesome,

but I've got a tour

to obsess over,

so let's change back before

your Aunt gets any more...

Well, thank goodness

that silliness is over!

Silliness?

Silliness?

What silliness?

Do you like bacon?

Why does it have to end?

Well, for one thing,

I've got a concert

to do tonight.

Not to mention contracts

to sign, an interview...

But what about tomorrow?

We could change

places in the morning,

and spend the whole day

being each other!

Oh, this is a bad idea

on so many levels.

I know just what you mean.

Wait, no I don't.

Ah! There's that tail.

Look, I really don't think...

Keira, wouldn't

it be amazing

just for one day to take

a break from being you?

Tori...

It'd be magical!

I'd get to be a pop star

for a whole day!

And you'd get

to be a princess!

Let's do it!

This is gonna be great!

But I don't know the first

thing about being a princess.

It's easy!

All you have to do

is follow a few simple rules.

To be a princess

Is to know which spoon to use

To be a princess

Is a thousand pairs of shoes!

Have your breakfast

served in bed

Wear some diamonds

on your head

Get a foot massage

And mani-pedi too

To be a princess

is to live a dream come true

Curtsey when princes

come to call

Wear a new gown

to every ball

AH through the day

there's just one way

You must behave

Pose with a feather

in your hat

Stretch on a golden yoga mat

Bend from above

and always wear your gloves

And wave!

Shoulders back

And tummy in and

Pinky out and

Lift the chin and

Slowly turn your head

from side to side

Breathing gently

Stepping lightly

Smile brightly

Nod politely

Do everything

you do with pride

Glide!

To be a princess

Is to wear your family crest

To be a princess

Is to always do your best.

To be a popstar

Is to know which mic to use

To be a popstar

Is to not fall off your shoes

To rehearse until it's right

Give a great show every night

And have room service

with anything you choose

To be a popstar

Is to love your great reviews

Take in the latest

fashion show

Fly for a lunch to Mexico

No time for friends

except your dog

And your guitar

Tweet everyone

your latest news

Sit for a thousand interviews

Love every fan

No matter how bizarre they are

Here's a camera

There's a camera

And a camera and a camera

And another autograph to sign

Love Keira

Change your clothes

and strike a pose and

Work the crowd and

take a bow and

Don't forget to

post it all online

Shine!

To be a popstar

Is to never act your age

To be a popstar

Is to make the world

your stage

Shoulders back and

Strike a pose and

Pinky out and

Change your clothes and

Slowly turn your head

from side to side

{see now

Here's a camera

Stepping lightly

There's a camera

Nod politely

Do everything

you do with pride

Glide!

To be a princess

Is to always do your best

To be a popstar

Is to leave them all

Impressed

Ready?

Ready.

You should have seen

those diamonds, Rupert!

Hundreds of them, just

sitting there, glittering!

Me, I don't hold

with littering.

Back in the day, Mick and

Keith would always tell me

"Litter free, that's for me. "

Ow.

Glittering, not

littering, you baboon!

Would you please listen?

Ah...

I can hear the ocean.

It's like they were

calling my name.

"Crider! Handsome,

talented superstar!

"Take us away!"

With those diamonds, I could

afford to mount a stage show

that would put me back

in the spotlight,

and finally chase that cheesy

chipmunk out of my dreams.

There must be a way.

Sun's up

A little after 12:00

Make breakfast for myself

Leave the work

for someone else

People say

They say that

it's just a phase

They tell me to act my age

Well I am!

On this perfect day

Nothing's standing in my way

On this perfect day

When nothing can go wrong

It's the perfect day

Tomorrow's gonna come too soon

I could stay

Forever as I am

On this perfect day

Sun's down

A little after 10:00

I pick up all my friends

In my Mercedes Benz

Wake up

Don't tell me

it's just a dream

'Cause when I've had enough

You'll hear me say

Now don't you try

to rain on my

Perfect day

Nothing's standing

in my way

On this perfect day

When nothing can go wrong

It's the perfect day

Tomorrow's gonna

come too soon

I could stay

Forever as I am

On this perfect day

I'm in the race

but I've already won

And getting there

can be half the fun

So don't stop me

till I'm good and done

Don't you try to rain on my

Perfect day

Perfect day

On this perfect day

Yeah!

On this perfect day

Keira! Keira!

You never said which headpiece for

the Smoke And Mirrors number.

Oh, I don't know.

You choose.

Surprise me!

Uh... I choose?

Come on, Riff.

I can't remember

the last time

I just strolled

through Meribella.

You're "it"!

Tori! Come play!

Oh, no, no,

that's okay.

You guys are

having fun.

C'mon! You're "it"!

You're "it"!

Confession.

I'm not 100% sure

how to play this.

You've played it

a billion times!

More than that!

A zillion!

Just try to find us!

Okay, go!

Huh. I don't remember ever being

around here before, Riff.

Excuse me!

Can you tell me the way

back to the marina?

Hey, you're Keira!

Look, Charlotte!

Keira!

Awesome!

Hey, can you

sign my T-shirt?

I really, really wanted

to go see your concert!

Well, there's one more

show tomorrow night,

maybe you can still

see her, er, me.

I wish!

But my dad says

we can't afford it.

Mine, too.

Bummer, huh?

Lots of folks can't

afford stuff right now.

You know,

since the big drought.

Drought? Is that

still going on?

Oh, yeah. It wiped out

all the vineyards this year.

Dad says everyone's

struggling to get by.

I... Didn't know.

Well, I guess you'd have to live

in Meribella to know about it.

Yes.

I guess you would.

Gotcha!

That was awesome!

But we'd better all

get ready for tonight.

Okay.

Are you gonna keep

pretending to be Tori?

What?

On earth? Are you...

You know?

Of course.

If you were Tori, you would

have cheated by now.

It's okay.

We won't tell.

Pillow fight!

And then I sneezed every last

petal off that lady's flower!

Who knew I was

allergic to dahlias?

And I

must have tried on

every single one

of your costumes!

Poor Nora is convinced

you've gone loco!

Oh, speaking of loco,

your aunt is all up in my face

about practicing some speech.

Oh, that. The dreaded

commemoration speech.

I don't suppose

you'd like to give it?

And by give it,

I also mean write it.

Only if I can sing it.

You know,

I've gotta tell you...

This has been the

coolest day I've had in...

Forever.

Oh, me, too!

It's been amazing.

I learned more about

my kingdom today

than I have in the

last 17 years!

Yeah. Too bad

this day is over.

Unless...

You'd want to keep it

going one more day?

You're on.

Perfect!

The live broadcast

is tomorrow,
