BOO!!! BOO!!! BOO!!! BOO!!!
In the film, Aria and the other Dazzlings are introduced in the human world. They are sirens from Equestria who were banished to the human world by Star Swirl the Bearded to prevent the trio from using their dark magic to conquer Equestria. They are first seen in a café causing anger between the patrons and Aria grumbles about the world's lack of satiating magic. Later, when Sunset Shimmer gives a school tour to Aria and company and mentions the musical showcase, Aria states that they sing from time to time. She and the Dazzlings later convince the students with their music to turn the nice and friendly Musical Showcase into an angry and enraging Battle of the Bands.
Aria and the Dazzlings use their siren's songs to control the students' opinion and advance through the competition bracket. In the final battle against the Rainbooms, Aria and the Dazzlings are eventually defeated and the gem pendants with which they controlled the students are destroyed. As a result, their terrible singing has resulted in the trio being chased off in disgrace.
