Tamera Mowry-Housley and Chelsea Hobbs are putting themselves first and fulfilling some lifelong dreams in Hallmark Channel‘s newest movie, Dream Moms.
The two actresses star opposite Andrew J. Hampton, Roger Cross, and Matthew J. Dowden in the musical-movie. Tamera is actually singing three original songs in the flick!
Here’s the summary: Danielle (Mowry-Housley), a one-time off-Broadway performer and former backup singer, and Claire (Hobbs), a once-aspiring dancer, both had dreams of making it to the Broadway stage.
Many failed auditions and years later, Danielle is married to Mark (Cross), a successful lawyer, and has a ballerina daughter, who is positioned for NYC ballet, living in the Upper East Side; and Claire is a single mother raising two sons and working as a bookkeeper in the Garment District.
Now consumed with motherhood, they no longer have time for themselves and have deferred their own dreams. Danielle’s brother RJ (Hampton) introduces the two after Claire begins taking classes at his dance studio. He is impressed with Claire’s dance technique and wants to bring the women together to compete in a nationally televised talent contest.
As they start practicing for the show, Danielle and Claire begin to regain their sense of self and passion they once had as performers. When competing priorities arise with their families and cause them to reconsider, the pair ultimately realizes they need to show up for themselves and set an example to never give up your dreams.

Dream Moms will premiere TONIGHT, May 13 at 8 p.m. on Hallmark Channel.

Just Jared was lucky enough to speak with the 38-year-old actress, who many will recognize from Make It Or Break It, about her own dreams, her Hallmark Channel roots, working with Tamera and more.
