and executive producers of "3rd Rock from the Sun" and "That '70s Show," Academy Award-winner Whoopi Goldberg ("Ghost") executive-produces and stars in this smart and sassy comedy as ex-diva Mavis Rae, a cigarette-smoking, alcohol-drinking, menopausal and especially opinionated hotelier. The former one-hit wonder runs her own small hotel in New York City -- and does it any way she wants.

Fifteen years earlier, Mavis had one huge, spectacular hit song -"Don't Hide Love" - and, quickly realizing that her initial success was a fluke,

she parlayed her finances from that hit into purchasing the Lamont Hotel in Manhattan. Mavis operates the hotel on her charm and wit while assisted by Nasim (Omid Djalili, "Spy Game," "The Mummy"), her reliable handyman.
