Brooklyn Decker might still look like a teenager even now that she’s in her thirties, so how young must she have looked when she was attending and cheering for Butler High School in Charlotte, North Carolina? The model-turned-actress was also the school’s senior class president before going on to become a world-famous name and face, appearing in blockbuster movies such as “Just Go With It,” “Battleship,” “What to Expect When You’re Expecting,” and ‘Stretch.”
She’s also had plenty of appearances on television shows such as “Grace and Frankie,” “New Girl,” and “Friends with Better Lives,” and the future ahead looks promising.
Rashida Jones
Life is all about balance, which may be why Rashida Jones has ended up so successful. She not only shook her pom poms during her grade school days, but she was also part of the math club and a member of the National Honor Society. Jones was born to an actress mother and a musician father, which explain has this beauty is so gifter and successful.
She seemed to do everything as a kid, which helped her land roles starting with "Myth America" in 1998, and including "The Muppets," "The Social Network," "I Love You, Man," and "Toy Story 4" for which she was a co-story writer.
Blake Lively
To the surprise of her actor father and talent scout mother, Blake Lively wasn't originally interested in performing, preferring a quiet life out of the spotlight. But eventually, her genetics, or maybe enough begging from mom and dad, won out.
While Blake was taking classes at Burbank High School, she not only had to leave time for homework but also for her cheerleading, as well as working as an actress for the movie 'The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants', the first of many movies she has appeared in, which include 'The Town', and 'The Shallows'. She’s also had some big TV roles, including 'Gossip Girl'.
Madonna
Before she became the Queen of Pop, Madonna was the child of blue-collar Italian immigrants, attending Rochester Adams High School. Like Fergie, she was a straight-A student and a member of the cheerleading squad, proving she's more than a pretty face. She's also, as you may be surprised to know, a natural brunette, and it's a shame she decided to pull pop culture toward the blonde.
Madonna dropped out of the University of Michigan (even after getting a dance scholarship) and moved to New York City in 1978 to become a pop star. The word success hardly describes what this woman has done, and there are no words to define her achievements.
Melissa Rycroft
While in high school, Miss Rycroft was part of the...drill squad. Didn't see that one coming, did you? However, Rycroft was so good at her chosen activity she went on to lead the squad and then become a cheerleader for the Dallas Cowboys. They were more new and exciting things lying ahead for Rycroft, and being a cheerleader was just the start of things.
Her TV debut came from CMT's "Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders: Making the Team," but she has also appeared on "The Bachelor" and "Dancing with the Stars." She's also appeared as a host on CMT's "Redneck Island," and there is more to come.
