The American Mall: Love & Dreams are not for sale


MTV's version of their high school musical, The American Mall, premieres August 11th at 9pm! Keep a heads up for our 21-7 exclusive review! But peep the story line for now!

Set in the kind of mall that's always been a home away from home for teens everywhere, “The American Mall” is the story of Ally, a hardworking young woman whose mother has owned a music shop that's been the soul of the mall ever since it opened when Ally was a kid. Ally's singer/songwriter dreams seem to come closer to fruition when she meets Joey, a musician who's moonlighting as a janitor at the mall in order to support his own rock star ambitions. While Joey understands her songs (and heart) like no one else, Ally's happiness and the fate of the music store are threatened when the mall owner's spoiled daughter Madison – who will stop at nothing to get what she wants – becomes involved.
