Grammy-winner and R&B sensation Toni Braxton lends her star power to THE OOGIELOVES IN THE BIG BALLOON ADVENTURE, a simple story of a loving friendship, a surprise birthday party and a BIG adventure.  The film is set for nationwide release Fri., Aug. 29.

The story goes like this. It’s a beautiful day in Lovelyloveville. It’s Schluufy’s birthday and the Oogieloves (Goobie, Zoozie, and Toofie) along with their friends J. Edgar, Windy Window and Ruffy, are organizing a party (Ssshh! It’s a secret).  Everything is going along just perfectly until J.Edgar trips and loses the last five magical balloons in all of Lovelyloveville - OH NO!!!

The Oogieloves immediately take action and set out to find the magical balloons in time to
save their friend’s party.  Along the way they meet some very interesting characters
indeed, including Dotty Rounder (Cloris Leachman); Bobby Wobbly (Carey Elwes);
Milky Marvin(Chazz Palminteri), Rosalie Rosebud (Toni Braxton) and Lola and Lero
Sombero (Christopher Lloyd and Jaime Pressly). Can these new friends help them
recover the magical balloons and get back to the cottage in time to celebrate Schluufy’s
surprise birthday?
