In show business (music, TV shows, etc.), a guest appearance is a participation of an outsider performer (musician, actor, etc.), usually called guest artist (guest dancer, guest violinist, etc.), in an event (music record, concert, show, etc.), i.e., the participation of a performer which does not belong to the regular crew (cast, band, contract personnel, etc.) In performance art, the terms guest role or guest star are also common, the latter term specifically indicating the guest appearance of a celebrity. The latter is often also credited as "Special guest star" or "Special Musical Guest Star" by some production companies.
In pop music guest appearances are often described with the words featuring, with, or and. It is abbreviated in credit lists as Feat., Ft., f.
In television series, a guest star is an actor who appears in one or a few episodes. In radio and television shows, a guest star is a guest of the show who is a celebrity.
Guest appearances have been known in theatre, ballet, and classical music for centuries, with guests both from the home country and from abroad. The advent of air transport has made this practice much more practical and global.
Joan of Arc, nicknamed "The Maid of Orléans" (French: Jeanne d'Arc,IPA: [ʒan daʁk]; ca. 1412 – 30 May 1431), is a folk heroine of France and a Roman Catholic saint. A peasant girl born in what is now eastern France who claimed divine guidance, she led the French army to several important victories during the Hundred Years' War, which paved the way for the coronation of Charles VII of France. She was captured by the Burgundians, transferred to the English in exchange for money, put on trial by the pro-English Bishop of Beauvais Pierre Cauchon for charges of "insubordination and heterodoxy," and was burned at the stake for heresy when she was only 19 years old.
Twenty-five years after her execution, an inquisitorial court authorized by Pope Callixtus III examined the trial, pronounced her innocent, and declared her a martyr. Joan of Arc was beatified in 1909 and canonized in 1920. She is – along with St. Denis, St. Martin of Tours, St. Louis IX, and St. Theresa of Lisieux – one of the patron saints of France. Joan said that she had visions from God that instructed her to recover her homeland from English domination late in the Hundred Years' War. The uncrowned King Charles VII sent her to the siege of Orléans as part of a relief mission. She gained prominence when she overcame the dismissive attitude of veteran commanders and lifted the siege in only nine days. Several additional swift victories led to Charles VII's coronation at Reims and settled the disputed succession to the throne.

Plot: Dr. James McGregor has it all. A wonderful family, home, career, money that took years of schooling and sacrifice. When McGregor meets financial adviser Charles Emerson, he steps into a world of shortcuts and fast money.

Emerson goes for the big score, an insider trading tip that's a sure thing and on his advisement, McGregor goes 'all-in' with his life savings. Soon after, Emerson is nowhere to be found, and McGregor becomes aware that he has been conned. Meanwhile, McGregor's demeanor is surly due to the stress of losing everything as all of this has taken place without his wife's consent. Having lost his savings, and now his family, McGregor pushes his own ethics to the limit and beyond as he takes measures to ensure that Emerson returns his money.
