The Cheetah Girls began as a 2003 Disney Channel Original Movie based on the best-selling book series for kids and tweens written by award-winning author Deborah Gregory (Jump at the Sun/Hyperion Books for Children). Within two years of the movie's debut, the group gained a large fan base, topped the soundtrack charts with a double-platinum soundtrack and enjoyed a highly-rated DVD release.

The soundtrack entered in the top ten on The Billboard 200, topped the soundtrack chart and was certified platinum.
Following the success of The Cheetah Girls 2 soundtrack and movie, the group embarked on their first national tour that grossed $26 million over 86 concert dates, broke tour merchandise records, and helped set a new record for the largest sales in the history of the Houston Rodeo in 2007 with an impressive 73,200 tickets sold (a record previously held by Brooks & Dunn).
