Plot
Carly and the gang learn that the music video Freddie made for Wade Collins is the #3 video downloaded on Pear Tunes. The #1 music video, features pop star Ginger Fox, but ever since the video, her career has taken a downturn. In order to revive her career, her manager hires the iCarly team to direct her comeback performance because Ginger likes the Wade Collins video. However, the task proves challenging when they realize the ex-star is all washed up. They are unable to back out of their agreement once Ginger's manager tells them that they will be blamed whether the performance is a success or failure. They eventually use lip-synching, choreography, and less close ups to make Ginger Fox's comeback successful, and although there are some major flaws and the trio considers the comeback a failure, for some reason people love it, and once again Ginger Fox is on top.

Elsewhere, Spencer finds out the new attractive woman he's been dating is Gibby's mother Charlotte Gibson. Spencer is very shocked, and refuses to accept her, saying that he can't kiss "Gibby lips". When he tells her this, she argues that Spencer looks like Carly, and since she could handle that, then he should be able to also. The storyline ends when Charlotte eventually gets terrified from seeing Spencer look like Carly, and the same for Spencer. They run screaming from each other.

Trivia

 * The building where the rehearsal studio is located is called the Schneider Rehearsal Lofts, in reference to the creator of iCarly, Dan Schneider.
 * There is an exception to Freddie´s rule that you can´t take a train to an island; the German island Sylt has a causeway connecting it to the mainland.
 * In "iMake Sam Girlier," it is known that Freddie is prone to excessive bleeding. When Sam pulls the fork that Ginger threw out of Freddie's shoulder, there are no visible blood marks or blood spraying out of his exposed area. This may mean that Freddie has been treated to prevent excessive bleeding.

Guest stars

 * Betsy Rue as Ginger Fox
 * Deena Dill as Charlotte Gibson

Goofs

 * During Ginger's performance, at the lyric, "cause you belong to me forever", she lifts up both her arms, and you can see her armpits are shaved. However, when she lifts up one arm at the end of the song, her armpit is hairy.
