Barbie: The Princess & the Popstar Page #4

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.

so we'll need to

change back early.

Of course.

I only wish more people could

afford to go to your show.

Seems like they're a lot

worse off than I knew.

Well, how about we make

the last concert a free one?

I'll work out

the details.

For reals?

Oh, thank you so much!

Hey, it's the least a princess

can do for you common folk.

See you tomorrow, Tori!

And that goes

for Mrs. Limburger, too!

What? Why, you...

Crider, you're through!

Through with you

and on to stardom!

I'm taking off, baby.

Like a super nova

on top of a shooting star!

You can't handle this.

But you can handle the

broadcast all by yourself!

I love show business!

You mean you're not gonna

stay for the show tonight?

Ugh, I've had it with playing

nursemaid to that prima donna.

I've got a new career

to launch!

Once I get those

diamonds tonight,

it's gonna be

"See ya later!"

Picture it, Rupert.

Up there in lights.

"Crider!

The Legend Returns!"

With Rupert, his bestest

buddy and life-long pal.

Now, let's see...

Expenses.

I'll need new songs, backup

singers, a swagger coach,

gold fillings... No, no,

no, diamond fillings!

Tonight we go back

and grab that plant!

Everyone will be

at the concert,

so the castle will be

practically empty.

Look how high we can fly!

"Look how high we can fly. "

Look how high we can fly

I lost myself today

All work no time to play

I'm holding on to what I know

Then this discovery

Blindfolded, I could see

I'm catching on

by letting go

And now I'm rising up

No coming down

So hang on for the ride

Look how high we can fly

Look how high we can fly

We can see everything

From up here in the sky

We've got the perfect view

Together me and you

Look how high we can fly

Words come so easily

Hard to believe it's me

With every breath

the feeling grows

Take time to make time stop

Unplug, turn off the clock

The less you try

the more it flows

I don't need to live

in a fancy castle

That isn't where I should be

Open up my heart and where

it leads I'll follow

Up high where I can be free

Look how high we can fly

Look how high we can fly

We can see everything

From up here in the sky

Look how high we can fly

Look how high we can fly

We can surf on the wind

So completely alive

There's nothing we can't do

Together me and you

Look how high we can fly

Look how high we can fly

Look how high we can fly

Look how high we can fly

Look how high we can fly

One hour!

One hour to show time!

Ugh.

I presume you have finished

writing your speech?

Ah, my dog ate it?

Ugh.

You can just stay in your room

all night and write that speech!

Huh?

Hey!

Let me out!

Not until you've learned

some manners, young lady!

No, no,

you don't understand!

I've got to get

to the concert!

Look, I'm not the princess!

I'm Keira!

It's too late for

more of your pranks.

Come on, Tori!

Hey, it's Tori! I'm out princessing

right now, so just leave a message!

Tori, it's Keira. There's kind of

a situation and we need to talk.

Call me when

you get this!

Ten minutes to curtain!

And Limburger is here to supervise

the broadcast personally.

You have been warned.

Who?

Hilarious. Nine minutes.

Oh, uh, thanks!

Where is she, Riff?

Something's wrong.

And where's my phone?

I can't do this.

Come on, Tori.

Keira.

Tough tacos. She's not

my problem anymore.

Let's sit

right in front!

Maybe Keira

will see us!

Hey, it's Tori! I'm out princessing

right now, so just leave a message!

My limo?

Not now, Vanessa.

What are they doing here?

Crider!

Crider! Crider!

Oh!

Quiet, Vanessa, please

I'm trying to think.

There's just gotta be

a way out of here.

Yeah, yeah,

I know, that's me.

And not even

my best picture.

We won't be

a minute, Captain.

The Duchess sent me back

to fetch her spectacles.

You know how she is.

I thought we were here

for the diam...

Ow!

Yes, Mr. Crider.

Ooh!

Keira! Keira, where are you?

Keira, you're on

in 30 seconds!

Oh, no!

That's funny. This

always works in movies.

We're getting close, Rupert.

Look for a panel

with a gardenia.

Ha!

Now that's a gardenia

if ever I saw one.

Now we just have to figure

out how to open it.

Go do it Rupert.

Be snappy!

Right-o, Mr. Crider.

Put some muscle

into it!

Doh! Pity that.

Go find something

we can open it with!

All right.

Keira! You're on!

No, no,

you don't understand!

I can't! Not today,

maybe tomorrow.

What? These people have been

waiting hours to see you!

It's your responsibility

to give them a show!

Where is she? Tell her to get

her behind on stage. Now!

Ah! Rupert! There's got to be

a way to get this door open.

Oh!

Good job, Rupert!

Keira, please stop being such

a princess and get out there!

Limburger's having a fit.

That guy can

destroy your career!

Keira's career.

Vanessa, shh!

Keira! Keira!

Okay.

Come on!

Whoa!

Ka-ching!

Ah...

What are you doing?

Sorry.

Ahem.

When I was young

I played for fun

Made up the words

Nobody heard

But now I see

All eyes on me

And suddenly

I'm in a dream

I've got a feeling now

Everything's right somehow

Here I am

Being who I want

Giving what I've got

Never a doubt now

Here I go

Burning like a spark

Light up the dark again

I'm stepping up

Right to the top

That's how I'm wired

I take it higher

I'm in control

I broke the mold

The girl you see

is up to me

I'm lifting off the ground

Finding the perfect sound

Here I am

Being who I want

Giving what I've got

Never a doubt now

Here I go

Burning like a spark

Light up the dark again

Again

Again

Again and again and again

That's right.

Do it your way.

Vanessa! What has

gotten into you?

All right! Vanessa,

why didn't you tell me?

There's a star

that's right inside you

So come on and let it out

Find out what you're about

and just shout

Here I am!

Being who I want

Giving what I've got

Never a doubt now

Here I go

Burning like a spark

Light up the dark again

Here I am

Being who I want

Giving what I've got

Never a doubt now

Here I go

Burning like a spark

Light up the dark again

What did I tell you?

Now that's why she's a star!

Never a doubt now

Here I go

Burning like a spark

Light up the dark again

Again

Again

Again and again and again

and again and again

Hello, Meribellal

Woo-hoo!

I never dreamed

I'd be up here...

Be up here in such

a fantastic kingdom!

You have the coolest

princesses in the universe!

In fact, Princess Tori in

particular is really awesome.

And often misunderstood.

Mostly by her Aunt.

But Tori still loves her.

One, two, three, four!

Sun's up

a little after 12:00

Make breakfast for myself

Leave the work

for someone else

Where is she?

Come to Papa!

Shoo! Rupert!

Do something!

Got it covered! Brought some

bug spray just in case!

That's not bug spray!

It's hair spray!

And strawberry-scented.

I hate strawberries!

Oh, anyway,

it did the job.

And I might add, your hair

does look touchably soft.

Never mind!

Grab the plant!

How deep does this thing go?
