Did You Know These Stars Were On Their High School Cheer Squads?

Kirsten Dunst

The Bring It On star can thank her high school cheer background for helping her land the role of Torrance Shipman. Dunst cheered at both Laurel High School and Notre Dame High School. Until the blockbuster cheer film came out, she was busy doing backflips and handstands on her own turf.

From Spider-Man to Super Mom

After starring in Bring It On, Dunst landed the leading lady role of Mary Jane Watson in the Toby Maguire Spider-Man franchise. She also played the French queen and aristocrat, Marie Antoinette, in a biopic of the same name. Now, she's in a relationship with actor Jesse Plemons, and the couple welcomed a child last year.
