Symoné starred in the original Cheetah Girls film alongside Adrienne Bailon, Kiely Williams, and Sabrina Bryan. Lynn Whitfield, Juan Chioran, and Lori Alter also starred. In the first film, the four girls form the titular singing and dancing group, signing with a record label and pursue their dreams of pop superstardom.
Based on the beloved book series by Deborah Gregory, the original 2003 Disney Channel Original Movie was a massive cultural phenomenon. It paved the way for two sequels, The Cheetah Girls 2 and The Cheetah Girls: One World, and a chart-topping soundtrack. The core four even took their talents on the road, touring and recording as The Cheetah Girls until 2008. While Symoné returned for the second installment, she skipped One World to focus on her solo career.
