  'This programme is not just about music. It's about dreams, joy, tears and happiness. You will see it all.' Nigel Lythgoe, LWT Controller of Entertainment The search is on to find the next pop sensation. Auditions have started in all metropolitan capitals. From 25,000 hopefuls, prestigious judges from the world of Entertainment TV and the music business, will select five highly talented individuals to form the Popstars band. Those five band members will then move into the Popstars house and start secretly recording a single and album to be released during the series. LWT's cameras will capture the whole process and author Maria Malone will be there from the very beginning to record every event, exclusively for Popstars - The Making of a Band. Popstars follows the trials and tribulations of becoming a super star - from the very first auditions through the painstaking selection and refining of the chosen band, to the release of a single and album. It forms the only official story of the creation of the Popstars band and the making of what is certain to be an enormous TV phenomenon. Illustrated throughout with photographs taken exclusively behind-the-scenes during the making of the programme and drawing on personal diaries and photographs taken by the band in their house, this is the only book to reveal all about the creation of a pop extravaganza and a spectacular TV sensation.
