Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

The story starts out with Alicia Rivera in dance class with her friend Olivia. She loves ballet class because Massie isn't there, and she is the most popular there. After class is over while they are in the locker rooms Alicia talks to the other girls and they convince her to host her own slumber party on a Friday night instead of going to Massie's.

The next day at school while Alicia is getting stuff out of her locker and talking to Massie, Kristen, and Dylan, Olivia comes over and spills out all of Alicia's slumber party plans in front of Massie (not knowing it was a secret) and Massie gets ticked off and calls Alicia and EW (Eternal Wannabe)and leaves Kristen and Dylan leaving Alicia feeling guilty that she wanted to be more independent.

Massie's parents redo the barn into a gym with huge TVS and other expensive things. Massie claims the whole thing costed "A million dollars or something". Before the paint goes up on Friday's sleepover Massie, Claire, Dylan, and Kristen do a mural. They tell Alicia to come over because they need to talk. The theme being "In with Claire, Out with Alicia" they embaress her and Alicia gets completely kicked out of the Pretty Commitee. After Alicia sees this, she runs outside crying. Claire's younger brother, Todd, and his little friend Tiny Nathan see Alicia leaving sadly and promise to help her in a way, by spying on the Pretty Commitee. Alicia and Todd strike up a deal and Alicia leaves feeling a bit happier than before.

Before in the Teen Vogue Fashion Contest(in the 2nd book) Alicia and Olivia cheated by switching boxes for votes for the fashion contest, so they win and go off to meet Lucinda and the rest of the staff in Teen People. Lucinda loves the looks of both girls and overs them a photo shoot near Christmas. Lucinda tells them to get pictures of their other pretty-in-a-normal way friends. Then Lucinda gives them both a Dixon, which she says Avril Lavigne will be wearing at the photo shoot.
