What It’s About
I Love Boosters centers on Corvette, played by Keke Palmer, the fearless leader of a group of women who target a powerful fashion mogul portrayed by Demi Moore.
Their plan is simple and radical. They shoplift luxury clothing from high-end designer stores and resell the pieces at a fraction of the price.
In the trailer, Palmer’s Corvette lays out her philosophy with unapologetic confidence, explaining that she shops at the designer’s stores often and feels entitled to everything inside.
To her, the clothes already belong to her. She is just reclaiming them.
As tensions rise, Moore’s character pushes back with venom, making it clear that this is not just about stolen merchandise, but class, power, and control.
The film leans into discomfort, confrontation, and satire, hallmarks of writer-director Boots Riley’s work.
