Rock Star begins with an exclusive, expensive fund-raiser for Governor Jack Highland on the magnificent estate of the ruthlessly powerful and universally feared record magnate Marcus Citroen and his icy wife, Nova, bringing together three of the biggest recording stars in the world:
The Legend - Kris Phoenix - a brash, sexy English singer and legnedary guitarist...
The Survivor - Bobby Mondella - a handsome, black, soul superstar, still recovering from a near-fatal accident...
The Newcomer - Rafaella - an exotically beautiful, part-white, part-black girl of wealthy parentage, who has every reason to sing the blues.
The three of them attend the evenet reluctantly. Marcus Citroen has called in favors, and the time has come to pay.
Rock Star is the story of their rise to fame and glory, of their triumphs and pains, their loves and their hates, their fueds and fights, interweaving their lives until the fateful night in Malibu, on Marcus Citroen's lush, ocean-front estate, where they finally meet their destiny...
