DCOM and Dessert: The Cheetah Girls
here begins my livewatch of the The Cheetah Girls.
first observation: this feels like just yesterday! this movie does not look old at all
--
i would totally wear any of their outfits even today. I used to want to dress like Aqua as a kid but now I think I kinda dress like Chanel
--
Raven doing a Jamaican accent, oh no
--
Galleria’s mom: “comin’ up with this cheetah chatter!”
classic
--
“ka ching ka ching, bling bling bling”
this movie is so quotable
--
I think Chanel was my favorite character when I first watched this (which was the world premiere in August 2003!) and I think she’s still my favorite character- what a sweet kid~
--
I still feel sad seeing Chanel’s mom being too self-absorbed to pay attention to her daughter :( hits too close to home in some ways :(((
--
ITS THAT LONG BLOND HAIRED GUY!!! HE STILL MAKES ME CRINGE AS MUCH AS EVER!! HIS DUMB LITTLE WALK AND WAY OF SPEAKING AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA WHAT A LOSER
--
ewwww this guy is so gross (and I think Galleria knows this in her gay heart)
--
ok there’s like waaaay too much to liveblog about this movie. i may have to stop just so i can watch properly. plus Cinderella is coming up!!!!!!!!!! what a jam!!!!!!!!!!
--
oh my gosh, I just learned that Drinka is played by a trans actress! <3
--
Galleria’s mom is such a power player, wow. i would love to have her as a boss, but damn is she intense as a mom
--
ok so they’re making upside down cheetah mini-cakes for the baking portion. should... should i be making this right now?
--
ad time: hmm kidz-bop must have slim pickings cause they’re releasing an all-time greatest hits cd instead of their usual kidz bop vol. 300
--
galleria and her mom fighting... could use some NVC skills
reminds me of me and mom when we fight... we could use some NVC skills
--
oh no Chanel’s mom just dropped the bomb of moving like that??!?!? not ok
Galleria’s award-winning solution: “tell her no chance, no dance”
--
Galleria really wants money/luxury huh...
what about the art? what about the stage? i’m kinda getting the sense that what she really wants is to be a producer or agent (but she has such a talent for songwriting!)
--
Galleria: “if he can’t respect my art, he can’t have my heart“
also Aqua thinks that those rival upperclassmen are “fine” which is just nonsensical
--
aww Galleria and Chanel are such a cute pair <3
but will Galleria’s ambition tear them apart??!?
--
Jackal wants to record the track in just a week? hm
--
ok Galleria is so funny when she’s full of herself- being hilarious when being annoying is really Raven-Symone’s specialty as an actress
--
does chompcheetah.com work?
--
Aqua got way too mean girl when telling Chanel to reign her wife, i mean best friend, in. I remember thinking that was not good friend behavior when I was little
--
ad break: hahahaha Skye Katz has a commercial with Tony the Tiger. I don’t know why that’s kinda fun
--
apparently some people have gotten promo boxes for DCOM and Dessert?? how are they getting these???

--
oh Galleria, if only you had better interpersonal skills...
--
Dorinda dance time [music emoji]
--
Chanel is a precious baby <3 stop neglecting her Mama Chanel!!
--
ok, did “Breakthrough” ever get play on the radio? cause i swear i thought it was a regular, non-Cheetah Girls song cause I heard it so much. am i just imagining this? am i confusing it with those other dozens of songs like it that were on 2003 radio?
--
Dorinda having a crisis about what race she is didn’t make sense to me when I was little, but I totally get what she means now
--
aww, the Cheetah Girls are a chosen family <3
and Dorinda and Chanel are such a sweet pair <3
--
oh my god i forgot about that cd cover BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Galleria is so transparent
--
snapshot of the music exec’s pitch: “kids love endangered species. kids wanna party.” classic
--
also dude you’re an adult putting your arms around a teen girl. GET OFF HER!!!
this film is definitely missing several scenes where Galleria shoves these dudes’ arms off her
--
i’ve.
made mistakes before, but
i know i’m not perfect,
but it’s ok cause
who
could
eh-
-ver
be
--
i SO wanted Aqua’s outfit in “Girl Power” when i was a kid
also, the bridges in all these rock. i mean, EVERY part of each of these songs is incredible, but i’m always amazed by how strong those bridges are in particular
--
i know that “All Around the World” is supposed to be cheap pop schlock, but like, I love cheap pop schlock so I don’t hate it heh
--
Aqua’s going mean girl again :/ the way she communicates really stresses me out
--
I can’t believe this movie is over halfway done! it goes so fast!!!
--
hmm, Chanel it’s lovely that’s you want to show that you’re grateful to your mom, but like, I think you have some problems you still need to talk about. you gotta speak your truth! she needs to hear in detail about all the things that have been bothering you!
--
now everyone on twitter is getting all emotional watching the Cheetah Girls, and you know, i feel it- this movie gets really real
--
wait, for this recipe for upside down cheetah cakes, are these cakes or english muffins?? they do not look like what i expected
--
time for Galleria’s soulful piano ballad in the auditorium. very theatre kid of her
--
ah, blond kid doesn’t like pop music, i see. he will never fit in with a gay like Galleria.
--
Galleria’s talking about lipsynching like she was asked to dance with the devil at midnight
--
now blond kid is trying to tell Galleria about the path of a true artist. these kids!
--
the detail of Galleria’s favorite movie being The Wizard of Oz is really cute tho
--
wow, they got Global Get Down to market in like, 2 days. what kind of racket is Jackal Johnson running?
--
Galleria just slammed into a cop and made him drop his donut: Cheetah Girls say ACAB
--
never mind, the police are helping get Toto out- they responded way more positively to a black teen in a pink cheetah print jumpsuit than they would in real life. Cheetah Girls do not say ACAB :(
--
bahahahahahaha Sonic Chaos is on stage- white boy’s rapping. how can he say that Galleria’s pop music is fluff when this is his work???!?!?!? what a hypocrite. or... he’s trying to mess with Galleria’s head to take her out of the competition!!!! insidious
--
ppppfpfpfajipfeqpsihqpeihvdapiejdvpajfiodacj the white boy’s dance moves!!!!!! SO LAME BAHAHAHAHAHAHA
--
Trinka was about to tell us a story about going to the movies with the Captain and Tennille and I’m kinda curious?
--
the way the power comes on and then Galleria’s face is blown up on screen is so funny ahahahaha
--
all the adults in this movie are so New York heh
--
hooray Toto is saved by the power of music!!
--
when blond boy isn’t posturing, he’s ok actually, but he is really posturing almost all the time. also he’s supposed to be a sophomore in high school but he looks like he’s 24. ah well, whatever
--
time for a ballad of sisterhood in the streets T-T
chills down my spine
--
ghahahahahahaha I forgot about that guitar solo
--
oh my gosh what a song to end on though!!!
and with all the smoke and lights and the choreo aaaaaaa
legendary~!
--
wait i totally forgot about this dance break, except for Toto’s dance in it
--
“Cheetah Girls, Cheetah Sisters” = an anthem of cross-community solidarity
--
cheetah por vida indeed
--
hooray they won the talent show!!! and everyone’s happy about it!!!
but guys, I think Jackal Johnson might have hung up by now
--
and what sparkly beautiful fireworks to end on <3
what a wonderful film!!!!!!!!!!!!
also i want to look up some of the other songs the music ppl on this film made cause, damn, they really did an INCREDIBLE JOB!!!!!!
(also i was hoping there would be some interview portions but it’s ok- when it comes to the cheetah girls, we’ve already got plenty of hot goss)
and that’s the end! AND ZENON IS NEXT WEEK I CANT WAIT
