Who's Who In The Aca-Awesome 'Pitch Perfect 2': List of Cameos

"Pitch Perfect 2" is now out in theaters and a capella fans could not be more excited to line up. Aside from the aca-mazing performances, cameos from well-loved singers and artists appeared on-screen as well, which gave the movie its much-revered magic.

From the trailer alone there were already a couple of known appearances that happened. "Bootylicious" was flawlessly sung by The Green Bay Packers in the trailer alone, and The Washington Post reports that Clay Matthews, T.J. Lang, David Bakhtiari, Josh Sitton, Don Barclay, and the brother of Aaron Rodgers did have to spend a lot of time practicing the song. David Cross also made a cameo in the trailer initially, as the robe-toting referee for what seemed to be the riff-off.

From those not featured on the trailer, Cinema Blend provided a detailed list of cameos: alumnae Bellas like "Good Morning America" host Robin Roberts, professional wrestler Lana, and even Kether Donohue, who reprised her role as the Bella who passed on the pitch pipe to Anna Camp and Brittany Snow's characters.  

Known artists were also present. Snoop Dogg played himself, as an artist who remixed some classic Christmas songs in the recording studio that the character of Anna Kendrick was working for. The Pentatonix also made an appearance, where they played the Canadian champions in the world championships, belting their hearts out on stage. Other notable cameos were the four "The Voice" coaches, and of course, President Barrack and Michelle Obama.

"Pitch Perfect 2" garnered more than $70 million in its opening weekend alone, toppling the other blockbuster hit, "Mad Max: Fury Road," which Forbes reports is already well on its way to outdoing its prequel, which grossed around $115 million during its cinematic run worldwide. Seems like the Bardem Bellas are about to aca-sing their way to the top, and no one is there to stop them.
