The Cheetah Girls Page #7

It won't matter what no one says

Cos down in my heart I got

the power to make it all happen. Yeah

Throw your hands up

if you know that you're a star...

All the same thing

Never give up. Never say die

Girl power. Girl power

At times I may just feel like

My back is to the wall

I hold my head up high

And keep standing tall

I know that my back is covered

Because we have each other

And we're down for whatever

if you hear me

Throw your hands up

if you know that you're a star

You'd better stand up

if you know just who you are

Never give up. Never say die

Girl power. Girl power

Sometimes life may get you down

But you better hold your ground

Can't nobody live your life but you

Stay true to who you are

And always follow your heart

Your heart. Your heart

Throw your hands up

if you know that you're a star

You better stand up

if you know just who you are

Never give up. Never come too far

Girl power. Girl power

Excellent. Excellent.

I loved it. That's exactly the flavour

we're looking for.

Now, here's the song we're looking at.

Hit it.

We go all around the world

Where we stop. Nobody knows...

All right. Check this out.

Def Duck Records presents

Global Getdown - "All Around the World".

This is going to go platinum,

titanium, uranium.

It is animal-friendly, vegetable-friendly,

mineral-friendly.

This is brilliant. I can smell millions.

Oh, yeah. That's it. Ow.

Feel it. Feel it. Come on.

- We go all around the world...

- Oh, yeah. Sing it.

Where we stop. Nobody knows

Cos we don't care just where we go

Pump it.

All around the world

We go all around the world

Where we stop. Nobody knows

but I can't wait to go home

Sing it with me.

All around the world

We go all around the world

Where we stop. Nobody knows

We don't care where we go

All around the world

We go all around the world...

No! No! No! No!

- Didn't you like what we just did?

- I loved it. It was great.

But that's not what we sold

the record company.

Well, I'm sorry. We can't change

the Cheetah Girls.

Well, this is what they're interested in.

And this is what they're paying for.

Well, fine. Then we bounce.

- Could you excuse us for a second?

- Sure. Absolutely.

Let's, uh...

Let's give these girls a chance

to think about that world tour. Hm?

All right.

- Why didn't you guys back me up?

- You mean rubber-stamp you.

Galleria, you didn't even give us

a chance to think.

Think about what, Do?

They're puppets.

I mean, now at least we could be

down for the talent show.

And if we win,

we can still have our demo.

Don't front, Bubbles. Now you're all

gung ho for the talent show?

Maybe we need to do it this way first,

so we can get our shot.

He knows the business.

I really think we should consider it.

It's a job singing, dancing, and making

people happy. What's wrong with that?

- It's not our music.

- It's not your song, so you wanna walk.

You didn't handle this.

Now I will.

You're just mad because

he won't do your material, right?

Our material, not that "All Around the

World" nonsense he was playing.

You might be right, babe, but you can't

make decisions for the whole group.

We make our decisions together.

You're just one person,

and you're not the boss of everything.

Well, somebody has to be the boss.

Somebody has to remind you

why we started the Cheetah Girls.

To make our dreams come true.

Our way, not his.

Why don't you guys

believe in what we have?

I wish I could believe in you,

Galleria, I really do,

but lately you've been all about you.

I can't...

We can't trust you any more.

Oh. OK, well...

Problem solved.

I'm taking myself out of the equation.

Oh, come on, Galleria.

Will you squash the drama?

No. Really, Do.

This is your shot.

And you need this, so I definitely

do not want to stand in your way.

So you guys are on your own,

and you take the deal.

- Did we lose a Cheetah?

- Afraid so.

Happens all the time. Don't worry.

There's more where she came from.

Sure. We can always find another singer.

And then...

move our other lead singer

to centre mike.

How about "Chanel

and the Global Getdown"?

What?

Look, this is too much for one day.

I really think we should

all think about this.

All right. Well, come back

when you're ready for prime time.

Mom...

Could you please not say,

"I told you so"?

Please.

Hey, Dana.

Looks like I'll be going on that tour.

Hey, great.

They picked me too.

And I got forms for you to fill out.

You just gotta get

your foster mom to sign them.

Ma, what's up?

What's up?

My credit card balance is up,

that's what's up. I got declined.

I bought some sandals.

I wanted to wear them out of the store.

The woman snatched them back so fast,

she took the paint off my toes.

- Why would you do this, huh? Why?

- Ma, I'm sorry.

Look, I'll give it all back.

I thought we were gonna be rich

after this demo. I'll work. I'll pay you back.

I trusted you. I trusted you,

and you took advantage of me.

I trusted you.

I trusted you to pay attention, Ma.

You did this

because I broke a shopping date?

No, Ma. No.

I did it cos Luc came in the picture, and

it seemed like my dreams didn't matter.

It seemed like they didn't matter.

But I've seen what it's like

not to have a mom.

What?

Calm down, calm down,

calm down. Hey.

- Who doesn't have a mom?

- I'll tell you later.

I just wanted to thank you

for always keeping me in your dreams.

- Oh, baby.

- No matter where they take us.

Paris, Buenos Aires -

it doesn't matter any more.

- The Cheetah Girls are over.

- Oh, baby, no, no, no.

I worked on all the songs.

I worked on our look.

I buckled everything down. I thought that

we were all on the same page.

I am sure you did what was right.

But what's right for you

may not be right for someone else.

And it's not worth

losing a friendship over.

How could we be friends again?

I mean, they want fame.

And there are ways...

and then there are ways.

And I want fame the Cheetah Girls way.

The Cheetah Girls way or your way?

We worked too hard to give it up.

I have to stand up for what's right.

Oh, sweetheart. I tried so hard to protect

you from getting your dreams crushed.

But there's no way I could

save you from this heartache.

You see, sometimes

you just have to let go.

And let the people you love

make their own choices.

Even if you don't agree with them.

You see, I'm learning to do that with you.

And you've gotta learn with your friends.

What difference does it make?

You either walk with the devil,

or you don't.

And I said no.

And I was right.

I was... I was right, wasn't I?

Someone's always

There behind

To catch us if we fall

I might be lonely

But I'm not...

No, keep going.

It wasn't entirely all that bad.

It actually sounded like something,

not that pop fluff you're usually working.

- You liked it?

- Yeah.

You had somebody write you

a Cheetah jam?

No. I wrote it. And all by myself.

See, this is the kind of music
