It On Tuesday,' August 22, 2000
WHAT: The World Premiere of Universal Pictures' and Beacon Pictures'
``Bring It On,'' a comedy about two rival cheerleading squads who

stands in their way from making it to the top. The evening is
sponsored by Teen People and Candie's. ``Bring It On'' opens
nationwide on August 25, 2000.
The Toro cheer squad from Rancho Carne High School's got
spirit, spunk, sass and a routine that's sure to land them the
National Championship trophy for the sixth year in a row. But
for newly-elected team captain Torrance (Kirsten Dunst), the
Toros' road to total glory takes a shady turn when she
discovers that their perfectly-choreographed routines were in
fact stolen from the Clovers, a hip-hop squad from Compton, by
the Toro's former captain. While the Toros scramble to come up
with a new routine, the Clovers, led by squad captain Isis
(Gabrielle Union) are more determined than ever to see that
they finally get the recognition that they deserve. But only
one team can bring home the title, so may the best moves win.
