This week: Can She Sing - Does It Matter?
Judith Powell, blonde, twenty-one, an art student with good looks and a guitar, wants to be a pop star. The pop machine has just discovered her and taken her over. She's being trained, groomed-prepared for pop stardom. She used to be a nobody; now they hope to make her somebody. They'll teach her to handle the press, what to drink, what to wear - how to climb to the top in one of the toughest fields in the world. If she makes it she'll need talent as well as the men and women of the the pop machine. She'll need to be able to sing. But is that enough? What goes on behind the scenes in the making of a pop star?
