Drive Me Crazy is a teen-oriented romantic comedy based on a YA novel by Todd Strasser. Originally titled Next to You, the title was changed to capitalize on the success of the first single from its soundtrack, a remix of Britney Spears's song, (You Drive Me) Crazy. While the song became a top-ten hit on the album charts, it failed to promote the movie, which only grossed $17 million domestically. The soundtrack also featured The Donnas who appeared in the movie.
Nicole Maris (Melissa Joan Hart) and Chase Hammond (Adrian Grenier) live next door to each other - but are worlds apart. Nicole is up on the latest fashions; Chase, on the latest protest. She wouldn't miss a pep rally or basketball game with her scheming socialite friends; he can usually be found in a dark coffee room with his friends that don't care what they wear.
Nicole wants a dream date with the star basketball player, but right before it was certain they were going together, he fell in love with a cheerleader. Chase's girlfriend is a not exactly a star basketball player, she usually uses one of the classrooms to make out with Chase. But he got dumped. Now that they have something in common, Nicole and Chase reluctantly join forces to navigate the land mines of high school love.
Their scheme: date each other to attract the interest and jealousy of their respective romantic prey. But in the midst of planning a gala centennial celebration, Nicole and Chase find that the one they always wanted was closer than they ever realized.
