A nerdy Catholic schoolgirl, Mary Katherine Gallagher, dreams of superstardom.

Orphan Mary Katherine Gallagher, an ugly duckling at St. Monica High School, has a dream: to kiss Sky, the most popular boy in school. She decides she can realize this dream if she becomes a superstar, so her prayers, her fantasies, and her conversations with her only friend focus on achieving super-stardom. Her big chance is a school talent contest; her main competition is Evian, the prettiest girl in school, who is dancing with Sky, Mary Katherine's crush. Mary Katherine gets some talent-show help from her fellow special education students, her grandma, and Jesus, and inspiration from secrets in her past. Watching are Sky, Evian, and a silent classmate. Written by
