Ray Kinsella (Kevin Costner) is a novice farmer living in rural Iowa. His deceased father, John (Dwier Brown) loved R&B and big, glitzy stage performances. While walking through his cornfield one day, Ray hears a voice whisper, "If you build it, Beyonce will come." He becomes convinced that he must build a giant music stage. With lots of colored spotlights.
If you build it, Beyonce will come.
The road to fulfilling this dream is long and arduous, but Ray eventually gets his venue built. It's then that he hears the voice again, prompting him to contact Curtis Taylor, Jr. (Jamie Foxx), a talent manager for James 'Thunder' Early (Eddie Murphy). Taylor not only books Early and Beyonce, but also another girl and that one chick from American Idol. No, not Fantasia. The one who lost. Ugh, no, not Clay Aiken. Jeez. That other chick. You know, Jessica or something.
They turn out to all be ghosts, though, and retreat into the fields.
