Paula Abdul
As a cheerleader, Paula took it to the next level. Not only was she determined to excel in the cheering squad at Van Nuys High School in Los Angeles, but she was also an honor student. By becoming a Laker Girl, then becoming a head choreographer, and supporting stars on the court, such as Jamaal Wilkes, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Magic Johnson, she committed herself to dance after graduation.

Jessica Simpson
The cool-girl spirit of Jessica Simpson is unparalleled, thanks to her cheering days. She got into the sport whilst attending Richardson North Junior High School in their home state of Texas. She was not there for long when she dropped out of college at the age of 15 to pursue music, but she finally became a cheerleader for the Dallas Cowboys.
