Cheer

Let's go!

NC! NC! NC! NC!

NC! NC! NC! NC!

You can't stop till the end! The music will not stop for you!

Let's go!

Perform till the last second! We got this, okay?

- We're the baddest bitches here! - Let's go!

- Show them how bad you want it! Let's go! - Game time!

It's been a very difficult year. We have had a rollercoaster.

A lot of great opportunities and a lot of awful times.

Really the only reason I even wanted or agreed to do the docuseries

was just to show the athleticism and the hard work,

and I had no idea that it would get crazy like it did.

So...

I didn't know the other side of that existed.

That... the hate, the negativity, the...

using the headlines to...

you know, to tarnish...

you know, the things you work towards, so...

It's been hard. Definitely been hard.

Good morning. This story comes as a shock to many fans of that Netflix show Cheer.

Jerry Harris was interviewed by law enforcement this week

and now this arrest.

The FBI confirms to CBS 2

it conducted a court authorized law enforcement action

in Naperville here at this house, where neighbors tell me Harris now lives.

He appeared before a federal judge just a few hours ago.

Prosecutors say he exchanged

sexually-explicit photos and videos with a boy on Snapchat.

Harris is facing a mandatory minimum 15-year sentence if convicted.

A large co-ed junior college division from Corsicana, Texas.

Let's hear it for Navarro College!

I can't even wrap my head around how I should feel.

I don't know, so...

This has been a tough year.

But then there's just these moments that are so...

wonderful.

These little moments of success that keep you coming back.

Just the... the little things that add up.

How do you move forward?

I keep putting one foot in front of the other.

Every single day.

Don't have a choice.

Security! Get down!

Oh my God!

Morgan!

La'Darius!

- Jerry! - Hi! How are you?

- Hey! - Oh my God.

Netflix has all eyes on Central Texas after a docuseries was released last week,

shining light on the best cheer program in the country.

- It's called "Cheer." - Cheer.

Cheer.

We're ten days from the national cheerleading competition in Daytona.

We know y'all are shook 'cause a lot of y'all are gettin' injured.

There's so many blue checkmarks.

- What the heck? - But like...

How did you get so many followers?

It literally just goes on forever.

- I love Morgan. - I love Morgan, too. Morgan!

She's awesome. No!

I haven't slept much since the show came out

because there was so much craziness.

You know you really made it when there's a BuzzFeed quiz

about which Cheer person you are.

I got Monica.

- - I got La'Darius.

And then it was Reese Witherspoon and J.J. Watt.

- Oh God. I know. - J.J. Watt, who's like a Texas royalty.

- You know what? He's here! - J.J.'s here to surprise you!

What's it like being back on the team?

Well, it's been amazing.

Basically, one of the reasons why I wanted to come back was after the show aired,

it really made me realize how much I truly miss this place,

and how, like, amazing, like, this program is.

She did get into a bit of trouble, and that was all dropped.

She did have to sit out in the fall semester.

I felt like she had enough, you know, time to reflect on it and learn from it.

When we last saw you, it seemed like you were done with Navarro,

but now I hear you're back on the team.

I wasn't a big fan of where I was at,

so I decided to contact Monica to see if there were openings.

Now I'm back for my third year.

I always told them, "If you ever need me, call me because I'll come."

And now I'm back.

Everyone's going back, and everyone's like, "Is she going back?"

- And I'm like... - Are you gonna go back?

ET exclusive. Is she gonna go back?

I think we're all still in shock, but it is the best feeling ever.

It's unbelievable.

Our friends at Shutterfly want to cheer you on with a check for $20,000.

- Ellen hugged me. - She hugged me too! I was like...

Have people been coming up and asking you to do mat talk to them?

- Yes. Yes. -

- I want Jerry to mat talk us! - I want... please!

Yes!

Yes!

Let's go, Ellen! You got it! Push! Get out!

My favorite thing from the past few weeks

is probably working the red carpet and getting to interview celebrities.

It's a privilege to be a part of this important conversation,

and it's really an honor just to meet you.

It's an honor to meet you, pal.

I guess I have a career now.

- Oh my God, Jerry! - Oh my God!

Yeah, we have a lot of big things coming. It's, like, exciting.

- Like, 2020's gonna be a good year for us. - Oh, yeah.

- It's already a good year. - It's already good.

Like, things just keep getting better every day.

I feel like I get more good news, and it's just like...

It feels amazing.

Y'all came back?

We just got back.

Y'all win?

We didn't go to compete. We went to Ellen show.

Y'all got all that money then.

- What was it? How much was it? - 20,000.

Hey, mama!

Who was that? Oh, girl, you...

We look so cute! La'Darius, look!

The photoshoot pictures of us are out. We look so cute.

I look straight.

He has one straight side and one gay side. Show him.

Yeah. Okay, hold on. My gay side. My straight side.

- - Yeah.

Oh my God. I could kiss you.

Thank you.

Does anyone know what we have at 11:30?

It's, uh, another interview.

Are these ever gonna end? Is the real question.

Probably not.

- You're welcome. Okay, at 11:30... - 11:30.

- You just need... - So here we've got Lexi, Jerry, Morgan...

- And La'Darius. - And La'Darius. Perfect. Thank you.

Take your nose ring out. You can't practice with it.

Y'all, listen! Eyes up here. Mouths closed, eyes up here.

So, when I say "go," we'll get Brooke to start walking.

Maybe you guys can just be chatting, like just in your normal routine.

Y'all are gonna yell, then maybe Jerry can go, "Let's go work!"

- You know, something... - Mat talk.

- If you're ready for that, Jerry. - I'm ready for it.

Okay. So today at practice, we're gonna do sections full out,

so we can get ready for a good full out this week.

And then... Oh! Our special guest is here, y'all.

Please welcome Brooke from the Today Show in Australia.

Welcome, Brooke Boney! You look beautiful!

Oh my God. Don't get me talking shade.

- Um, we're just happy to be here. -

And to help out when needed.

I don't know how to fake react to things.

People who weren't featured as much in the show

have just been more filling the background.

Yeah, we're just here to cheer.

- Cheering. -

What we do every day.

In the end of the day, you came here to cheer for Monica.

That's what everyone's going to keep in their head.

We're gonna do what it takes to be prepared for Daytona.

- Hey, Australia! - We're the Navarro Cheer Team!

- And we wake up with... - Today!

Perfect.

They're all teammates.

So we don't see each other as celebrity versus...

You know, we just see each other as teammates.

I don't really see myself as, like, famous.

Just because, like, that's weird to think about.

Uh, I mean, because I'm just, uh, the same old person as y'all saw

when you first came here.

- Oh my God! - And a Navarro cheer uniform for you.

Because, girl, you look good in everything.

I am so excited!

I feel like I'm in a dream. I'm like, "When am I gonna wake up?"

And I'm like, "No, this is my life now."
