Pup Star

Synopsis: Welcome to a world where dogs can not only talk -- they can SING! Tiny, a cute little Yorkie pup with a big voice, gets a chance to audition for the singing competition for dogs, "Pup Star." After she earns a place in the finale, she's suddenly dog-napped! But with the help of her new friend, Charlie, a retired rock-and-roller, she escapes. Together they leave on an incredible journey through some of music's most iconic cities. They meet Big Ears - a soulful Bassett Hound who teaches Tiny to belt out the blues, Murray - a spiritual shaggy dog who helps her find her inner rhythm, and Emily Rose - a country-singing shepherd who helps her learn to sing from her heart. Most important of all, they all encourage Tiny to believe in herself and never give up on her dreams! Filled with all-new songs and the biggest cast of talking and singing canines ever assembled, Pup Star is an incredible family film filled with fun, music and heart.

He's here!

Rover, over here. Rover, come

talk to us for just a moment.

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen.

It's Rover. It's really him!

I'm Sadie McSpots, reporting live with

ETV from the red carpet with Rover,

the host of the number

one hit show, Pup Star.

Tell us, do you think anyone can

actually beat Bark this year?

Bark's gonna be hard to beat,

but we're looking for a new champion

all across America right now.

Be sure to tune in.

Yippee bow wow!

Welcome, everyone, to the world's

most popular talent show.

Tonight, we're in Chicago,

where we are starting our

cross-country search

for the next pup star.

I'm your host, Rover,

and this is Pup Star!

I can't believe I'm auditioning.

I know. It's so exciting!

Now, let's go over

this season's rules.

At each one of our live shows,

we'll be giving away a golden bone

to one lucky singer-songwriter,

guaranteeing them a spot in

the grand finale in New York,

where the winner will receive a

national recording contract.

The contestants must only

sing original songs.

So, without further ado, let's

meet our esteemed judges.

Here she is. International

pop sensation, Lady Paw Paw!

Raise the woof woof,

puppy litter!

The most successful reggae

artist in doggie history,

Dog Gnarley, everyone!

Irie, man. Blessed to be here.

And now, the country-music

star with the ten-gallon hat

and a hundred-gallon

personality, it's Blake Sheltie.

How y'all doing? Y'all ready to

have an old fashioned honky-tonk?

And of course, the judge that

everybody loves to hate, Simon Growl.

- Boo!

- Hi, yes. Boo-hoo to you, too.

And as I said to

my neighbor's cat,

if you can't stand the

heat, get out of my oven.

And now, a word

from our sponsor.

On planet Earth, things

are always evolving.

Humans learned to walk, and man's

best friend learned to talk.

Good boy. Wanna chase a ball?

Right. Throw it!

You talked!

Yeah, come on, mate. Get it out there.

Throw it.

Evolution Dog Treats. Because

evolving is only natural.

Welcome back to Pup Star.

He may need no introduction,

but that doesn't mean

we won't give him one.

Let's all give a warm howl to

our two-time winner, Bark.

Chasing a dream down a lonely road

Your tail is dragging

It's a heavy load

You never whine, you don't quit

Just dig a little deeper

And scratch that itch

When you get your shot

Give it all you got

Don't just knock them dead

You gotta rock

You gotta rock 'em dead

You gotta rock 'em dead

Hey, Tune, it's about to start.

Hurry up.

Don't get your chakras in a

knot, my smelly, mangy friend.

I think I got it.

Hallelujah.

Rock them dead

Oh, I just love Pup Star!

Pretty good, right?

Oh, here we go again.

Pretty good, yeah.

Maybe a little bit pitchy, like a seagull

who's being strangled by an octopus.

Like a hurricane

Keep rocking every chance you get

You gotta rock 'em dead

You gotta rock

You gotta rock 'em dead

You gotta rock 'em dead

You gotta rock 'em, you gotta rock 'em

You gotta rock 'em dead

Thank you, guys. I was

born to rock 'n' roll.

I love you, but I love me more.

Turn that garbage off.

Oh, come on, Charlie.

It's my dream to be on Pup Star, and

I'm just, like, killing it, you know?

Like a great singer,

like Madogga or K-9-ye.

It's my dream that

Tune stop singing

and a platter of juicy

ribs falls from the sky.

As much as it pains

me to say this,

you are... better than ever.

Ah. You're welcome.

Bark, you're prolific,

handsome, magic, macho.

I know you love me.

Bark will be competing

again this year,

and will have to defeat a

talented pool of new contestants

in the hopes of becoming the first

three-time Pup Star champion.

Not if I get to you first.

Let's give a big

"yippee bow wow"

to our next contestant,

opera singer, Puparotti.

I'm so gonna win again and

not even break a pant.

Bark, what do you think about me

trying out, while we're here?

Pugly, are you kidding?

You have no talent.

As your friend, trust

me when I say, no.

I'm just protecting you

from painful rejection.

Thanks, Bark. You're

a great friend.

And I couldn't find

a better assistant.

Now, fetch me some water to lap.

Hey, Charlie, look out, look out.

Roland's back.

Cut the racket, would you?

That was too close.

- That was truly dreadful. Arrivederci.

- How'd this thing get on anyways? Huh?

You're gonna regret this.

What's that, Charlie?

Did you say something?

Doggy want a biscuit?

All right, you. Time to go.

I got a buyer for you.

Aye, my ship's come in.

Good luck to you, lads.

I'm watching you.

- I'm so nervous.

- You're gonna be great.

Just look for me in the audience and

pretend I'm the only one here, okay?

- You're up, Tiny.

- Oh, I almost forgot.

But... But these are the special

barrettes that your mom gave you.

I know. But now I have

one and you have one.

It's for good luck.

Lou, you really think

I can do this?

Of course I do, Tiny.

I believe in you just

like you believe in me.

Please welcome our final

and smallest contestant.

She's as cute as a button and

appropriately named, Tiny.

Tiny!

Tiny!

Yeah, Tiny!

- Tiny.

- Yay, Tiny! Yeah!

Oh, dear.

I'm sorry. I'm a...

I'm a little nervous.

Don't be afraid, Tiny. Everything

is gonna be all right, man.

Tell us a tiny bit about yourself, darling.

Don't be shy.

I, um... I live in Chicago with

my girl, Lou, and... And our dad.

Oh, and our Nanny Ida, too.

Ah! What a disaster. We

almost missed the whole show.

I was feeling so lost and scared

Hoping to find a home

Then you came to me

When I was all alone

You opened up your heart

And helped me truly see

That we are one big family

Nothing can break our bond

We'll always make it through

If you are by my side

If you believe in me

And I believe in you

Together there's nothing

That we can't do

If you believe in me

And I believe in you

Hand in hand

We'll see our whole life through

I believe in you

Tiny!

Tiny!

Yeah!

Darling, you are a

diamond in the rough.

You have raw talent,

but y'all gonna have to step up your game

and sing with emotion beyond your years.

I wanna see you command the

stage like Lady Paw Paw.

It's a toss-up, but me have a feeling

you're going to surprise us.

So, yeah, man.

I think you have the it factor.

You are cute, I

will give you that.

But, heh, you're just not polished

enough to win Pup Star. Sorry.

Aw!

I understand. Thank

you for having me.

I... I guess there's

always next year.

Aw.

Hold up.

Huh?

Tiny, you're my wild-card pick.

Do you have any idea what

just happened, darling?

No.

You got a golden bone,

and a spot in the final

show in New York City.

Oh, my gosh. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

Bark better watch out,

'cause this little pup

could steal the show.

- Yes.

- Wow.

Congratulations, Tiny.

Tiny receives our first

golden bone of the season,

and will join Bark

in the finale.

Chicago.

This is Rover asking, who

will be the next pup star?

Yippee bow wow!

Hey, beautiful.
