- No premiere date has been set as of yet for the fifth season of Raven’s Home.
- TVLine was also sure to ask Bailon-Houghton about her interest in potentially revisiting the Cheetah Girls franchise. You can see her answer below.
What they’re saying:
- Adrienne Bailon-Houghton: I’ve always been hopeful about [playing Alana again], so to be able to make it happen was a dream come true. I always love working with [Raven-Symoné]. We did the first Cheetah Girls movie when I was 19, and now I’m 38, so we’ve stayed friends for almost 20 years. We laugh at the fact that we were playing the high school students… and now we’re playing the parents. It’s so bizarre!”
- Bailon-Houghton, on a Cheetah Girls reunion: “That would be so fun, and I always say ‘never say never. I’m so excited about this new generation experiencing the Cheetah Girls on TikTok and Disney+. Kim Kardashian told me that North is obsessed with the Cheetah Girls and wants to introduce us. In the back of my mind, I’m like, ‘She’s going to wonder why I’m so much older!’ So I do love that there’s a resurgence, but my only concern would be ruining it. I don’t want to kill the memory of something so great. But I’d always be down. Maybe Bubbles and Chuchie are grown with kids of their own and they start the next generation of Cheetah Girls.”
