Dove Cameron has entered her femme fatale era.

The former Disney Channel star, 26, told PEOPLE she "rewrote" Edwyn Colin's 1994 hit "A Girl Like You" for her upcoming single "Girl Like Me," which she performed Friday at iHeartRadio 102.7 KIIS FM's Jingle Ball in Los Angeles after she found inspiration in Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle.

She explained that she's channeling Demi Moore in one particular scene from the 2003 blockbuster sequel for the song's concept.

"That has been one of my favorite songs for like 15 years," Cameron raved. "When I saw that scene in Charlie's Angels, when she's laying in front of a fire and you find out that she's a villain and it's playing 'A Girl Like You,' I was arrested. I was nailed to the floor as a 7-year-old, and I've always loved it.

"And one day, we just had this idea. I was like, 'Oh my god, it would be so fun to cover on tour.' And we were like, 'What if we just flip the narrative? What if we just said, 'You've ever met a girl like me before'?" she added.

Cameron said it's been a long time coming to release the track, which drops Dec. 9, ahead of her debut album.

"We've been working on it for ages, but I'm really, really happy with it now," she said. "And I'm excited to have everybody hear it. It's fun to do live."

Moore, 60, starred in Full Throttle as Madison Lee, a former Angel who turns on Charlie and his three best agents (Cameron Diaz, Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu).

  • NASA Re-establishes Contact With Voyager 1 From 15 Billion Miles Away

    NASA scientists have made contact with their Voyager 1 spacecraft - which is 15 billion miles away from Earth - for the first time in almost six months. After months of troubleshooting, staff at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Southern California uncovered the root cause. Unable to repair a malfunctioning chip the team devised a groundbreaking solution they redistributed the affected code across multiple locations within the memory, ensuring its functionality and updating references to its new locations. On 18 April 2024, engineers successfully relocated the code responsible for packaging engineering data, a crucial step in restoring communication. Despite the vast distance - over 15 billion miles from Earth - it took approximately 22 ½ hours for signals to travel to and from Voyager 1. When confirmation arrived on 20 April, it signaled the first successful data transmission in five month. Launched over 46 years ago, the Voyager missions represent an unparalleled feat of exploration. Having journeyed beyond our solar system, they remain humanity's farthest-reaching emissaries, having provided invaluable insights into the outer reaches of space after their historic encounters with Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune.
