The Cheerleaders Who Became Famous – From Pom Poms To Oscars

Calista Flockhart

Speaking of Ally McBeal, Calista Flockhart has been dedicated to 'doing her thing' from the time she was a young girl. It all began for Calista in her New Jersey hometown when she attended Shawnee High School. Once she was done with this institution, she enrolled at the Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers University. It was there when she first began to be noticed as the future actress that she would one day become.

Michael Douglas

We end off our list with a true legend and a bit of cheerleading trivia. Did you know that before the 1950s, cheerleading was dominated by boys and men? Michael Douglas was a member of the Choate Preparatory School where he soon became dedicated to cheerleading alongside his schoolmates.
