## Biography

### Pitch Perfect

Beca moves to Barden University to begin college, arriving in a cab. Beca obtains an internship at the school's radio station, where she meets Jesse, who also works as an intern, wherein they're tasked with stacking CDs for Luke the station manager.

During the activity fair, Barden Bellas co-leaders Chloe and
Aubrey unsuccessfully try to recruit Beca to join, who says she can't
sing. Though while in the shower rooms, Chloe manages to convince Beca
to audition after she hears her singing "Titanium" by David Guetta.

Jesse is revealed to have auditioned as well, and subsequently accepted into the Treblemakers, a rival a cappella group. He sees Beca who showed up late, and she sings "Cups" with a cup from Aubrey and Chloe's desk, much to Chloe's delight. The next morning, during the first official Bellas meeting, she learns
one of the Bellas' most important rules: Never to date a member of the
Treblemakers, an offense for which ex-members Kori and Mary Elise were
kicked out, with the latter forced to drag her chair as she left,
embarrassed and disheartened.

At the Riff-Off she gets her first taste of the a cappella culture.During a songs about sex category, Beca single-handedly takes on The
Tremblemakers by rapping "No Diggity". Everyone is so impressed that
they are initially lost for words but as Beca continues the rest of the
Bellas (except Aubrey) join in. Though they lose to The Treblemakers after failing to match the word (it's instead of it), much to Aubrey's dismay.The Riff-Off is where Beca demonstrated her true capacity for being a
formidable acapella member and also began to enjoy herself with the
group. At the Regionals, it becomes apparent how unoriginal and bland
the old Bellas' set-list is, with negative feedback coming from the
commentators. The Bellas, however, advance to the semifinals.

Over the course of the movie, the tension between Beca and Aubrey
gradually increases. The tension manifests into animosity at the ICCA semifinals,
 when Beca improvises the set list to save the Bellas as they are in
danger of elimination, seeing how the audience are bored and sleeping
during their performance. After their performance, a furious Aubrey
reprimands Beca, who states that it's not her choice to change the song
and that she has a relationship with Jesse.

Beca returns to the Bellas, finding them in a fight and utter chaos, due
 to disagreement between Aubrey and Chloe when the latter defends Beca
and clearly says that "Beca makes us better" during a rehearsal. At the ICCA finals, the Bellas return with a fresh new look, a modern set list, and an energizing choreography.

## Appearance

Beca is pretty, with wavy brunette hair and dark blue eyes. She is often seen with her headphones around her neck and has multiple ear piercings (in which she puts 'amazingly scary ear spikes'). She wears a lot of plaid flannel shirts and dark colored clothing. She wears a lot of eyeliner and sometimes paints her nails black.
