It’s the dead of winter, but Galleria and her Cheetah sisters aren’t feeling the chill. They’re in sunny Houston, where they just played the biggest show of their lives, and are feeling closer than ever to the record deal that will make them famous. But just because this concert is over doesn’t mean the Cheetahs are ready to pack up and head home. There’s a rodeo in town, and Galleria is gonna get the Cheetah Girls up on stage—if she has to rope a bull to do it!
As if bucking broncos and tough-talking cowboys weren’t enough trouble, another band accuses the Cheetahs of the worst crime of all: stealing lyrics. But Galleria won’t back down. There’s gonna be a showdown at this rodeo—and the Cheetahs sing best at high noon. Deborah Gregory was born in Brooklyn, New York. When she was only three years old, her mother was institutionalized, and young Deborah was put into foster care. As a teenager, she started designing her own clothes and fantasized about a singing career. At the age of eighteen, she attended the Fashion Institute of Technology. She graduated in 1986 with a BS in cultural studies from Empire State College. After graduation, she found success as a model in Europe.
Gregory has written for various magazines including Essence, More, Us Weekly, and Entertainment Weekly. In 1999 she penned the book series the Cheetah Girls. The books were adapted into a series of original movies by Disney Channel starting in 2003. She also wrote Catwalk and Catwalk: Strike a Pose.
