Trisha, a Filipino transgender woman, suddenly dies while being crowned in a beauty pageant. Her last wish was to be presented as a different celebrity on each night of her wake, but her conservative father wants to bury her as a man. Trisha's friends are left with no choice but to steal her body and hold the wake in a secret location. And as Trisha is transformed to look like different celebrities, they also look back at the colorful and extraordinary life that she has led - being a son, a sister, a mother, a friend, a lover, a wife, and ultimately, a queen.
Die Beautiful also stars Christian Bables, Cedric Juan, Lou Veloso, Gladys Reyes, Joel Torre, Albie Casino, Luis Alandy, Inah De Belen, IC Mendoza, Kokoy Santos, Faye Alhambra, Jade Lopez, Kenshee, with a special participation of Ms Iza Calzado and Eugene Domingo.
