Cheerleaders Playing Cheerleaders: Kirsten Dunst

Here we have the star of what I would argue is the most recognizable cheerleading movie; Kirsten Dunst. She is deserving of her very own post on my blog, because Bring it On was the reason I began cheerleading 13 years ago.

Jennifer cheered during high school and college

In an interview with Seventeen Magazine, Jennifer said "I have two [favorite cheer memories], actually. I was a cheerleader for a really long time! My senior year I was captain of my squad and we won camp championships, which meant our team was the best team in our varsity range. And then I ended up making All-American All-Star which was a thing where all the people that made all-star could do the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, but you had to have try-outs and only 20 people from each camp were able to go. And then my sophomore year of college my best cheerleading memory was, we were an all-girl squad and we were there at the same time as the USC all-boys cheer squad. They’re yell leaders. I actually met a boy at cheer camp and I ended up dating him so that was great. I got to go to USC football games and sit in the second row."
