Gillies recently reflected on her time as Jade — Hollywood Arts' resident rebel and a member of the coreVictoriouscast, along with Justice, Thomas, Grande,Avan Jogiaand Matt Bennett’s characters — while speaking with PEOPLE about her November concert series.

“A good song is a good song at the end of the day, and I thinkVictorious' music was great,” she said of the series, which also produced tracks like “Give It Up,” “Best Friend’s Brother” and, of course, theme song, “Make It Shine.”

Earlier this year, Justice alsolooked back on theVictoriousdays— and admitted that the world is “due” for a full cast reunion.

The cast has “a group chat that we’ll pop in on sometimes and chat about stuff,” she told PEOPLE in June. “That’s always fun when that goes off, and gets really active, and we’re all chiming in.”

“It’s like old times, which is really cute,” the star added. “But yeah, they’re all great. We’re all due for a reunion, for sure.”
