The Cheerleaders Who Became Famous – From Pom Poms To Oscars

Reese Witherspoon

Of course, Reese Witherspoon was a leading cheerleader in her youth, given her status as an All-American Sweetheart. As you can see from the picture of the Legally Blonde icon below, she started performing from a very young age, and was clearly incredibly good at it! Witherspoon kindly provided this picture for us all, where she is seen doing her thing for the Generals team. It seems like Reese was always delighting huge amounts of people.

Ann Margret

Ann Margret was part of almost every activity available as a young woman, loving to sing, dance, and cheerlead while she was at the New Trier High School in Winnetka, Illinois. Margret is not native to America, believe it or not, having been born in 1941 in Sweden. She might be far older than most of the other ladies on this list, but you can bet that she was just as dedicated to the cheer craft.
