Hide AdShe has a superb voice and a captivating personality – and is backed up by an incredibly talented cast of dancers.
There are sexy salsa’s and cha-cha’s galore, in a showcase of how music and dance brings together a community.
Fernandez portrays the Mexican girl-next-door, who comes up against racism and the everyday demands of being a young person in the music industry.
Through this vibrant fiesta, there’s a positive message about staying true to yourself and never being ashamed of your own culture.

Hide AdSofia reminisces about her late father (played by former Strictly pro, Pasha Kovalev), in heartwarming scenes with her younger-self (beautifully played by Grace Hope).
And works through the trials and tribulations of stardom with her best friend, Matteo (Siva Kaneswaran of The Wanted).
I loved the vibrant energy, the feel-good ending and great sing-along soundtrack!
