A US reality television star has been sentenced to 10 years behind bars for raping a 13-year-old boy.
Andrea Clevenger, 34, of TLC's Cheer Perfection fame, pleaded guilty on Thursday to sexual assault and engaging in sexually explicit conduct with a minor, TMZ reports.
Clevenger handed herself in to police in Sherwood, Arkansas, in January two months after the boy's parents found sexually explicit pictures from the 34-year-old on his mobile phone.
"The boy told police the sexual assaults happened at least three times, once on the sofa inside Clevenger's home and twice inside her vehicle," according to the arrest affidavit reported by Arkansas Matters.
The boy, described in the affidavit as a "13-year-old male", said that Clevenger had removed his pants, climbed on top of him and had sex with him at her home.
He claimed the pair had oral sex in her car on two occasions and they exchanged explicit text messages.
Clevenger appeared along with her competitive cheerleader daughter Kylie in two seasons of Cheer Perfection, a show documenting Sherwood's Cheer Time Revolution competition.
In one episode she treated a flat-iron burn with her own urine.
