The reasons Jerrica needs an alter ego to perform as a rock star are confusing and convoluted and best not scrutinized too deeply.

This is Jason Blum (producer of the Paranormal Activity films), Jon M. Chu (director of G.I. Joe: Retaliation), and Justin Bieber's manager Scooter Braun. They are making a Jem movie. You read that right.

They are making their movie through "crowdsourcing" — not for money, but for creativity, and casting.

So, to recap, there is a Jem and the Holograms movie in the works, by a horror producer, a Step Up movie director, and the guy who launched Biebermania. And anyone can contribute to it.
