Black Tweens & Teens Love the Cheetah Girls
Published September 18th, 2006 in Entertainment for Black Children, Entertainment for Black Teens. The Cheetah Girls $10.90 Teen sensation Raven (That’s So Raven) stars as Galleria Garibaldi in the Disney Channel’s brightly hued adaptation of the popular book series. Produced by Whitney Houston, Josie and the Pussycats meets Destiny’s Child in the form of the Cheetah Girls. Granted, they’re a quartet–including Chanel (Adrienne Bailon), Aqua (Kiely Williams), and Dorinda (Sabrina Bryan)–but, like Josie’s trio, they hope to make it big and, like Beyoncé, they favor exclamations like “Cheetah-licious!” After the foursome gets off to a slow start, everything starts to change when they meet producer Jackal Johnson. That’s the good news. The bad is that the attention goes straight to Galleria’s head (and she was never exactly lacking in self-esteem). By the end, she learns there’s more to life than fame and fortune. Aimed at the tween audience, girls are likely to fall for these tuneful teens, while their parents may find all the giggling and squealing a bit much. –Kathleen C. Fennessy Read More Details |
