Angelice Dallas is a popular singer nicknamed the Princess of Pop but behind closed doors she is narcissistic, self-centered and thinks little of others and mistreats her crew and peers. She is convinced to do a Christmas show but has no intention of sharing the credit with others but that night is visited by the spirit of her former mentor Dola Vay a family friend that their parents trusted, who is in chains for her selfish misdeeds in life and will be visited by three spirits.
Angelice is visited by the Ghost of Christmas Past who shows how she and her sister Fay ended up in foster care due to their parents having to work to jobs to provide for them. Then the father collapsed and their mother was forced to put them in foster care, and they were fostered by Dola Vay who cheated the system to keep them and started pushing Angelice to succeed in music, and how she met Eric Anders an aspiring musician and started seeing him until she broke up with him due to her new schedule and Dola kept grooming her. Then to Angelice’s shock learned the only reason she did so was to exploit her and bolster herself financially.
Then she is visited by the Ghost of Christmas Present who shows her Fay is spending time at a charity and is reconciling with their mother Diane Dallas, and Eric is enjoying a Christmas party with his friends and finds out her school is running a charity but is overshadowed by her show. Then is shown the people who need financial help in the present like with illnesses and foster children and uses some her own selfish words against her.
Then Angelice meets the Ghost of Christmas Future and is shown that she became a popular winning singer but any news of her is overshadowed by the passing of a disliked performer, crews are insulting her revealing what they thought of this person and her peers insult her to. Only a few people have condolences for her death then finds out the people are Fay, their mother, Eric and her peers and she is the dead popstar and starts begging for another chance.

Sounds interesting, @Kevin. Catchy title. I suggest adding the inciting incident/event that sets the plot in motion, the singer's goal, and the stakes to the logline.
