Controversy
The Slumber Party Girls' manager made a comment in late 2006 about the rivalry between The Slumber Party Girls and The Cheetah Girls. She was quoted as saying ""For example, the Cheetah Girls, a Disney brand pop trio, have already released three hit albums and appear in their own line of Disney Channel movies. "We are fighting for the same audience. It's going to be a Britney - Christina thing. You're going to choose one or the other."
This led to a big "rivalry" rumor about the groups hating each other on online message boards. The Slumber Party Girls then made a comment saying that it was "just a friendly rivalry" and that they didn't "hate The Cheetah Girls".
However, since the album's release, The Slumber Party Girls album failed to chart on the "Billboard Hot 200" while The Cheetah Girls' second movie soundtrack has since reached Platinum. Some even view the rivalry as ridiculous because of the major age gap in the groups. The Cheetah Girls have not commented on the rivalry as of late
