Synopsis
An ugly duckling transforms into a beautiful prom queen. An overweight couch potato becomes a model. A sci-fi nerd morphs into a hardcore rapper.
Dreams really do come true on Made.
Why stand on the sidelines watching others live your dream? Are you too shy or think you're not "cool" enough to get in on the action? Or do you simply lack self-confidence and motivation?
Maybe it's time to stand up and get Made. The show is about making dreams come true and proves that with dedication, hard work and a little help from MTV, kids can accomplish anything they set their minds to.
