Alors que Lucius B. Blynn, un mécène pour l'opéra, ne quitte Paris que pour aller chasser en Afrique avec son attaché de presse Corny Davis, ce dernier entend Suzette, une impressionnante soprano, chanter avec un orchestre dirigé par son petit ami Jimmy James. Corny propose à Suzette d'auditionner pour Blynn en Afrique, et Suzette, qui a envie d'abandonner le jazz pour l'opéra, accepte. Alors qu'ils chassent dans la jungle, Corny conduit Blynn à la découverte de Suzette, renommée pour l'occasion « Oogahunga », la « femme-oiseau ». Habillée d'un costume fait de plumes, Suzette enchante Blynn, et elle est amenée à New York, où elle prend des cours de chant. Pendant ce temps, Jimmy, qui n'est pas au courant de la double vie de Suzette, se prépare à ouvrir un nouveau club, « Chez Suzette », dont Suzette sera la vedette. Lorsque Suzette, en tant que « femme-oiseau », fait ses débuts à la radio, Jimmy reconnaît sa voix. Sous la menace de la dénoncer à Blynn, il obtient d'elle qu'elle chante dans son club le soir.
