One of the most successful young recording artists and actors in America, Sabrina Bryan, is a member of a multi-platinum recording act, The Cheetah Girls.
A big success on last year's Dancing with the Stars contest, she is also one of the stars of the Cheetah Girls movie franchise for Disney Channel. The third film in the series, Cheetah Girls: One World, which was shot entirely in Udaipur, India will be broadcast on television in a few weeks.
The story revolves around three Cheetah Girls -- Sabrina, Adrienne Baillon and Kiely Williams -- who arrive in India to work in a Bollywood film, to discover that the producer wants only one of them. "It is also about friendship being tested and how we face that challenge," Sabrina says.
The first Cheetah Girls movie premiered August 15, 2003. It became a huge hit for the Disney Channel and its soundtrack went double-platinum in America. Soon the three girls formed The Cheetah Girls as a group.
The second film in the series, Cheetah Girls: When In Spain, was also a smash. Its soundtrack sold 1.3 million units in America. The girls have also sung for a number of movies and one of the popular numbers at their concerts is I Won't Say I'm in Love from the movie Hercules.
Sabrina, 23, hopes that their newest album from the film, which is inspired by Bollywood dance and musical numbers, could be the most successful soundtrack ever for The Cheetah Girls.
They have performed at more than 60 venues in America; one of their most successful appearances was in Houston two years ago, where 73,000 tickets were sold in a couple of hours.
Born Reba Sabrina Hinojos, daughter of a Mexican father and American mother, Sabrina has been appearing in television productions and stage shows from the age of seven. She says the continuing success of the Cheetah Girls movie series could bring more attention to her other activities including help fight child obesity, one of the biggest health problems in America.
This year, she partnered with Mission Foods as the spokesperson for the Healthy Kids Challenge. She challenges children to stay healthy through nutrition and keeping active.
