School Gyrls: Nickelodeon's FAILED Musical Group

[@MrNostalgia]

A couple things to note about this video: I was supposed to talk about a couple other things in regards to the group but I edited the second half of the video while sick and I really just wanted to get the video out. They're really small points though so I'm gonna put em in here 1. Jacque dated Justin Bieber a couple years after School Gyrls dropped and they met on the set of this movie. 2. They made a sequel but it's basically lost media. Thankfully.

[@cinespov]

[@smartguy458]

I have to agree. I mean, why not try looking at this movie through the perspective of those who made the movie and the targeted audience of that year? There's no need to be rude and callous about it because it doesn't follow today's teen movies standards and tropes.

I actually went to school with Mandy (the blonde one). We had a couple classes together and I'd sometimes talk to her during breaks or lunch both 8th grade and freshman year. She was always really nice. Lol, I even remember her telling a substitute teacher that she was leaving early one day for something and that she was "dropping out of school anyway". This was a year before this aired. I'd hear or see her on occasion when she was back in town. She'd bring up any new songs that were coming out, which I actually listened to and liked but I know other people got annoyed with her promoting it lol. Still, much love to her.

Fun fact: popularkpop group Wonder Girls back in the day had their own Nickelodeon movie. The School Gyrls appeared in the movie. Not only that, but they made a song together. Thus, not only is legendary kpop group Wonder Girls canonical to the School Gyrls lore, but the School Gyrls, which are pretty much unknown, are part of their discography. Not to mention, if you watch the music video for their collab song, you can see some of the School Gyrls are different. So yeah, that’s something.

[@ARMORXV]

I found out about this group when I first heard that K-Pop girl group Wonder Girls were going to star in a Nickelodeon movie with a rival girl group called School Gyrls. Like a lot of K-Pop fans did, I immediately searched up School Gyrls but instead of judging them I was immediately won over when I saw their video for "Something Like A Party." To this day, is probably one of my Top 10 most played songs in my entire music library

[@Dervis128]

There was also a Christmas special, and Nick Cannon produced a movie for the Kpop group Wonder Girls which featured the School Gyrls as their rivals. Admittedly, the Wonder Girls movie had their best music. There were also some line up changes. The group added rapper Sade and a singer, Lauren for the Christmas movie. Nick Cannon tried to push them as a legitimate music group for a bit, but Mandy and Jacqui left and were replaced by Natalie and Rae. The Wonder Girls movie was their last chance for relevance, but it failed. Rae left the group, leaving them as a quartet. They tried to rebrand as "4ever," but they broke up before any music was released with their new name.

[@AzariahMarinaStarcaster]

I straight up might rewrite this movie one day, because imagine if the school was still very strict to the point of stifling people's creativity, but similar to the Ariel's Beginning movie, there's an underground club kind of thing where people can perform and stuff, and that's where the stunt party/talent show is held every year. And then Bambi, who apparently has an issue with her boyfriend being a musician, goes out of her way to get the stunt party and the club shut down, so now, the School Gyrls decide they're going to do something so the party can still happen, whether that be finding a new venue, getting the students who want to be able to express themselves to protest against the school in some way, or really anything else. Idk, there's ways you can go with this story that I think would be fun to work with.

I'd take this 10× over the new Kim possible movie, monster high movie, the entire after series, the 365 days series, cuties, the 50 shades series, most Noah centineo movies, the kissing both series, that disrespectfullly terrible Netflix Winx show and any of the terrible cartoon network remakes.

[@2Cute2Cool]

As someone who has never seen or heard about this movie before, the line “leave like your father did” is insane for something aimed towards kids 💀

[@lolonny777]

wow i genuinely thought no one else knew about this... wonderful video. the sequel trying to introduce new additions to the group and flopping even harder than the first film... a classic childhood memory

[@staycsprinkles3777]

i thought i was the only one that watched shit like that and I dont remember most of it. i dont think I even watched their full movies. they had a christmas special and I tuned out of that too

[@dajanique3918]

I still listen to school girls today and definitely feel like only a select few remember them lol. I remember staying up late just to catch the movies twice cause it legit never played again

[@JadeMuray]

I randomly had this pop up in my recommended. I would like to say THANK YOU! Most ppl do not know/remember them and I was OBSESSED with them. I still listen to their music. I am still upset I was not able to watch their Christmas movie 😢

[@melthenewqueen]

School Gyrls was one my obsessions as a kid! I listened to their albums daily and watched their movies every time it came on! I always get excited when people talk about because I feel like no one remembers it!

[@yoongiyuu3086]

gonna apply to be a babysitter for one of nick cannons kids so i can ask him why he wrote the black characters like that💀

[@FrenkTheJoy]

Why did youtube think the 1976 movie Carrie made sense to promote under this video lmao

[@kitfred]

I had that loft/bunk in their dorm. It's from Ikea, if you also want it. It is also VERY cheap

[@myliza700]

OH MY GOD YOU JUST UNLOCKED AN ACTUAL OBSCURE MEMORY 😂 like I don’t remember the actual movie at all bc I had a lot of trauma that year. But I remember it existing

[@maijennasis]

music is so powerful, I almost forgot about this group but as soon as their songs played I deadass remembered the lyrics and the promo for the movie. I also remember kids in school around that time saying that Nick Cannon owned Nickelodeon lmfaoooooooooo

[@emilyyamasaki4968]

I’m like you I also remember pretty much every Nickelodeon and Disney thing from about 2008/9 onwards. Like you said, the stuff that like 4 people remember. But I don’t feel like I remembered this, during parts of the video though I was like “do I remember this?” And I honestly have no clue. Also I remember Mathias as the “shine on kidz bop guy”

[@shanmarie000]

omg no one ever remembers them when i bring them up 😭 they still got bops too!

[@Celinemoonstone]

“I’m not just a girl” was my ringtone FOREVER and I don’t even remember liking this movie

[@Sam-ic1qq]

The best thing about this movie is the “no farting” rule I saw at 15:25 I’d get expelled on my first day

[@mz3player]

I, too, have no memory of this film existing! Thanks for making the sacrifice and watching it for us!

[@exxfromaeon1051]

I was such a hardcore fan of these girls and had their first album in physical. The funny thing about this group is the line up changes were fucking insane. Literally they added two girls in the second movie... who do not sing in any of the songs minus 1. Then Mandy and Jacque left. They collabed for another movie with Wonder girls but they added two more members who were back up members. Then a girl left after the Wonder Girls movie and then they tried to rebrand to FOREVER and then disbanded before the single could come out bc they lost Monica who was the only one from debut who stayed till the very end. But the music was AMAZING

[@mutsortima174]

Nickelodeon now has another girl group in the Good NEWZ Girls, which they formed in late 2021.

[@demitwice]

i only know who these girls are thanks to that awful nickelodeon wonder girls movie where they are racist to the wonder girls and then at the end the asian member says "hey guys let's be nice to them, don't forget i'm filipino 💁🏻‍♀️" lol

[@JamesLawner]

The only time I ever heard of School Gyrls was when they did a crossover with Archie from Archie Comics. And at that time, I understood it that the group got their start on America’s Got Talent, and only until now I was made aware of this movie.

[@deelinf]

Hey bro, you gotta talk about the other 2 movies now. 👀 You have once again took me down memory lane! I actually do remember watching this movie the night it premiered. Now looking back, Lord this movie is garbage... But, something I do remember is my sister and I being extremely obsessed with the "Something like a Party" song at the time. That was fire! Anyway, excellent video!

[@celiaweinrauch]

I actually remember School Gyrls so it is bold of you to assume that I would forget Angus, Thongs, and Perfect Snogging. Ultraviolet is still a bop.

[@Rosa-mj5mt]

OMG THEY SANG THAT SONG?! I loved it as a kid but didnt even know it was from a nickelodeon girl group! Thought it was the paradiso girl or something

[@dittosame-o67]

First thing I gotta confess. Thinking about it now. The characterization of Jacque reminds me of Woah Vicky. Before Woah Vicky, there was School Gyrls’ Jacque (movie). I don’t think Jacque Pyles was portraying herself. I think she was portraying a character that seemed like a watered down Woah Vicky 1.0. And I think I watched this movie about a month ago! I was feeling very nostalgic and decided to rewatch. I didn’t realize people still remembered it! But I was a fan of the group way back when! Right from when the movie premiered! My sister and I loved it. But watching it now and I realize it was so cringe! Yet, I recently added “Get Like Me” to a playlist recently! It’s low-key kinda 🔥.

[@base4yrface]

HOLY SHIIIIIITTTT MUSIC CHOICE!!!! I LOVED BROWSING THOSE CHANNELS WAY BACK WHEN

[@averagemegan]

I vividly remember hiding under my covers at 2am as a kid and watching this entire movie on KZbin. The songs had no business being that good honestly.

[@RedEyedReba]

seeing gage golightly and mention of the troop awoken something in me like a sleeper agent wtf that show was AMAZING

[@Theye101499]

I remember as a kid i thought the main girl in "Angus, Thongs, and perfect snogging" was named "Angus Thong" because i never actually saw the movie lmao.

[@sweetlatina213]

I loved the School Gyrls. I saw them perform at a mall and met Nick Canon. Then they started adding random girls that did not fit the vibe. Then they changed their name and style which annoyed me and I lost interest Edit: if you into my channel, I have a video of the school gyrls performing the day I saw them. It’s old and an awful angle but it’s there lol

[@iloveonedirection25]

ive been WAITING for someone to talk about them. I still listen to some of the songs from the sound track to this day lol.

[@LiLzZluvinJ]

I loved School Gyrls so much as a tween. The music and choreography was always on point!
