Kiely Williams, born Kiely Alexis Williams on July 9, 1986, in Alexandria, Virginia, is an American singer, dancer, and actress. She is best known for her roles in the girl groups 3LW and The Cheetah Girls. Kiely's career began in 1999 when she, along with Adrienne Bailon and Naturi Naughton, formed the girl group 3LW.

Their debut album, self-titled "3LW," was released in 2000 and went platinum, selling over 1.3 million copies in the US. The group's success continued with hits like "No More (Baby I'ma Do Right)" and "Playas Gon' Play."

In 2003, she joined forces with Adrienne Bailon, Raven-Symoné, and Sabrina Bryan to form The Cheetah Girls, a group created for the Disney Channel movie of the same name. The film's success led to two sequels and multiple soundtrack albums, solidifying Kiely's status in the pop and R&B scenes.

As a member of The Cheetah Girls, she contributed to several successful projects, including the original movie, "The Cheetah Girls" (2003), "The Cheetah Girls 2" (2006), and "The Cheetah Girls: One World" (2008).

Kiely Williams also ventured into solo music projects, releasing songs like "Make Me A Drink" and "Spectacular," although her solo career did not achieve the same level of success as her work with 3LW and The Cheetah Girls.

In her personal life, she is married to Brandon "BJ" Cox, and they have two children, Rowan and Archer. Her work with The Cheetah Girls, in particular, has left a lasting impact on fans and the industry alike.
