The Gavilan College cheerleaders headed to Hollywood to show off their skills at the filming of "Bring It On 5," starring Christina Millian, a motion picture about cheerleaders that was preceded by four others. The Gavilan cheer team and Coach Rachel Becerra will be featured in the movie, which is scheduled to come out next year. They will be shown performing one of their routines and in the movie's "Cheer Off."
Becerra and her team were invited to perform in the movie when the casting director heard of the Gavilan team through a mutual acquaintance.
"It is hard work having to repeat scenes over and over again," Becerra said. "When we go there we were chauffeured to the Universal Production Studio where we had to go to wardrobe and makeup. By the end of the day we were exhausted."
