Storyline of The Idol Season 1
The popular television show revolves around Jocelyn, a charming young aspiring artist who is struggling to make ends meet. She suffers from mental breakdowns on occasion, which is one of the reasons why some of her tours are canceled.
She is desperate to prove to America that she is one of the greatest pop performers on the scene, refusing to let her panic attacks define her.
