This documentary tells the story of how Katherine Hudson became Katy Perry and follows her on her California Dreams Tour between 2011 and 2012, a period which just so happened to coincide with her messy divorce from Russell Brand.
Whether you love her or loathe her, Katy Perry’s Part Of Me offers a fascinating, often unvarnished insight into a pop star at the peak of her powers and proves that pop stars are people too.
Whitney Houston: Can I Be Me is a heartbreaking, eye-opening look at how arguably the most talented vocalist of her generation achieved worldwide fame and succumbed to addiction.
It features never-before-seen footage from her tumultuous My Love Is Your Love World Tour and contributions from those who knew and loved Whitney, including her brothers, her bodyguard and members of her entourage.
You’ll walk away mourning her loss, but with a greater understanding and appreciation of what a musical icon she truly was.
A documentary about Beyoncé directed by Beyoncé might sound kind of masturbatory on the surface, but Life Is But A Dream offers a rare glimpse into the life of the notoriously guarded Beyoncé Giselle Knowles. We see her discuss her marriage, her miscarriage, the birth of Blue Ivy and her professional split from her father.
It also contains this charming clip of Beyoncé, Solange and Kelly Rowland singing Lovefool by The Cardigans.
Michael Jackson’s Journey from Motown to Off the Wall
There have been tons of Michael Jackson documentaries, but this Spike Lee film focuses on Michael Jackson The Musician. (As opposed to, you know, Michael Jackson The Neverland-Dweller or Michael Jackson The Baby-Dangler.)
It tells the story of how Michael Jackson struck out on his own to record his seminal album Off The Wall and became the musical legend he is today.
This is a warm, intimate look at the relationship between actress Carrie Fisher and her mother Debbie Reynolds, both of whom passed away in December of last year. It contains delightful archive footage as well as some classic mother-daughter bickering.
It’s funny, it’s sad and will make you want to call your Mam immediately.
Love him or loathe him, Justin Bieber is a phenomenon. Never Say Never is a surprisingly interesting look at how a child from small-town Ontario became the biggest pop star in the world.
Nora Ephron was the Queen of the Romantic Comedy. She penned Heartburn, When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle, You’ve Got Mail and Julie & Julia. Quite the track record, eh?
Lovingly directed by her son, Everything Is Copy is a delightful ode to one of the funniest, wisest writers to ever put pen to the paper. You’ll come away wanting to devour everything she ever wrote.
Finally, we have Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work, a documentary about the late comedian, who was busier and more productive at 75 than most people are at 25. (Seriously, she’ll make you feel like a sloth.) Learn more about the woman behind the bawdy jokes and insults, and raise a glass to a true one-off.
