Gabrielle Union
Another actress who starred in ‘Bring It On’ back in 2000 was Gabrielle Union, so again it’s no surprise that she was a high school cheerleader. While living in Pleasanton, California, she honed her abilities, probably motivated by her sports-centric family. This was the one thing she was supposed to be passionate about growing up, according to the actress, regardless of whether or not she was performing. Cheerleading was a great way to show her sporting support, and it also helped her with her career, obviously.
