Tiana is a waitress.She has a dream of owning a restaurant.In order to realize the dream,she works hard.She knows that it is useless to wish on a star.She never sits in a castle waiting for a prince to come and save her.Tiana's plans for success go wrong when she meets a talking frog.The frog happens to be a prince named Naveen.Hoping to become human again,Naveen regards Tiana as a princess by mistake.He tells her to kiss him.Then something worse happens.Tiana turns into a frog,too.Together they look for a way to become human again.
