Escape the humdrum of ordinary Sim life and pursue a more entertaining existence. Make Sim pop history - the fame and fortune of big name celebrity is within your reach. It's time to hop on stage and show the world what you've got. Work to make your Sim a new sensation in entertainment. Become a singer, DJ, or famous magician. In addition to building your career, you'll create the perfect venue where your Sim will perform regularly before adoring audiences. And, for the first time, you can take your Sim out of your world and into a friend's game, or you can invite others into your world and let them perform at your personal venue. Your Sim is ready for the big time and opportunity is knocking. Can you handle the fame? Or will you crack under the pressure? Find out if your Sim is the next big thing or nothing more than a one-hit wonder. Venture into a new world and live the dream as a singer, acrobat, magician or DJ.
