Description
Sassy, humorous and at times, heartbreaking, Ms. Thang is the story of Brittany, Natasha and Shaniqua, three friends who are on a quest to become popular in an Atlanta area high school. Smart aleck Brittany has everything a teenager would want except her parent s trust. When Brittany buckles under pressure, she suffers a personal crisis which threatens her future as a pianist. Shaniqua pops in her hazel-colored eye contacts, patterns her style of dress after an older cousin, and succeeds in attracting the attention of Jordan, one of the popular boys. Brittany and Natasha warn their friend to stay away from him, but Shaniqua thinks they are just jealous. Natasha is the nucleus of the group, and likens herself to the Jolly Green Giant because of her height. When she meets Stephen, an artist, a friendship ensues. Stephen paints a portrait of Natasha and encourages her to consider a career in modeling. As each girl ventures down a different path, will their friendship remain cohesive or will their personal experiences lodge a wedge between them?
