‘Because of you, I get to talk to you and heal a wound from that time period when we were younger that I probably wouldn’t get to do if I didn’t understand that you know what, you like to shake s*** up,’ Raven said.
‘Yeah, I’m a fire starter, for sure. It’s an acquired taste,’ Kiely admitted.
Raven appeared in the 2003 Cheetah Girls movie and its 2006 sequel Cheetah Girls 2, but did participate in the third film The Cheetah Girls: One World released in 2008.
She explained why she was absent from the third film on Instagram Live to Kiely.

‘The cliquish way that there was during that movie made me feel excluded from my original team,’ she said.
‘Not that it was strong to begin with, but I felt excluded… we have other things that just led up to that moment that just were weird, personal outside of business,’ she added.
Kiely told Raven that she would ‘never try to hurt you on purpose’ and then offered an apology.

‘Well, I appreciate that, sweetheart, and I release any pain towards you that I have, and I cancel, clear and delete it,’ Raven told her.
While they were on good terms, Kiely revealed that she had a falling out with Adrienne.
Raven brought up how Kiely recently claimed that Adrienne was ‘pretending to be my best friend’.

She urged Kiely to talk to Adrienne, but instead learned why they had become distant.
‘She didn’t come to my dad’s funeral or call me when he died. I’m sorry, I’m not trying to be messy. I’m being for real with you, no,’ Kiely explained, according to Entertainment Tonight.
Kiely added, ‘You can say what you want about me and how you felt about me, but you can’t ever say that I didn’t ride for Adrienne. You can’t say that. I didn’t do anything!’
Raven urged Kiely and Adrienne to put their pride aside and talk about.
