Instant Star is a teen drama that looks behind the curtain of the music industry, exposing the struggles that a young star must go through to not just make it, but just keep her job. From the same studio that brought us Degrassi, Instant Star puts fans in the shoes of teenager Jude Harrison as she wins the Instant Star TV show, gets discovered and encounters the dark side of the business. Will she have to change everything she is? Or can she make it on her terms?
FUNimation has announced they'll release the first season of
Instant Star on
May 22. The set includes Director's Cuts of all 13 episodes, Original Cast Auditions, Music Performances, an Instant Star Road Album and Be An Instant Star! Contest Rules and
