Phaedra Parks

Clarke Central High School in Athens, Georgia was where this Real Housewives star and lawyer got her start. Seen here wearing a red, white, and gold uniform, she had all the spunk a cheerleader needs. This fiery spirit was especially helpful when she went to law school later on in her life.
