There’s no denying Stacy Keibler is an attractive woman, but she used her smarts to take herself higher and higher. While she started out using her athleticism as a cheerleader for the Baltimore Ravens, she jumped straight to professional wrestling with the WCW from 1999 to 2001, at which point she moved to the competing WWE, going on to have five years of regular appearances.
She now writes for Stuff magazine, as well as modeling, acting in a few films, and appearing as a TV host. She had adorned on screen with her appearance on “Dancing with the Stars,” which earned her the title “The Weapon of Mass Seduction. ”
Megan Fox
Want a fact that's sure to surprise you? Future famous beauty and Hollywood superstar Megan Fox, while attending Morningside Academy in Port St. Lucie, Florida, was the subject of cruel bullying. She was part of the cheerleading squad both at this high school and an earlier one in Tennessee.
But the eye candy of the "Transformers" franchise wasn't to be denied, and after moving to California, she began acting, eventually starring alongside Lindsay Lohan as, drum roll, a cheerleader in "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen." Looks like Fox got plenty of rehearsal time in her teens for the role she ended up landing on.
Paul Rudd
The incredibly shrinking man was one of the “yell leaders” at Overland Park High School in Kansas. His infectious smile and endearing personality also helped him get elected as Student Body President. Flips and jumps and bringing energy to the crowd surely have some kind of use while acting, but we're not sure what.
There aren't a whole lot of male cheerleaders on this list, but it may surprise you to know they were once far more prevalent. In fact, until around the 1950s, cheerleading was made up of mostly males! Paul Rudd is best known for "The Cider House Rules," "The 40-Year-Old Virgin," and "Avengers: Endgame," placing him comfortably on the big star list.
Reese Witherspoon
Witherspoon has been showing off her acting skills for a long time now in movies such as "Legally Blonde" and "Walk the Line," but long before she had her current fame, she was part of her school's cheerleading squad. These were the days before "Wild" came to the screens and before "Everything Is Copy" and "Mud" were even thought of.
The famous actress posted a black-and-white picture of herself at the top of a human pyramid, cheering the Generals on to victory many years before she made her debut in 1991's "The Man in the Moon." One thing is for sure, she maintained her beauty and her charms.
Ann Margret
Perhaps one of the most senior members of this list, Ann Margret Olsson was born in 1941 in Sweden and was a singer, dancer, and cheerleader at New Trier High School in Winnetka, Illinois, after her family moved. She held star potential in her hand even all the way back then, judging from the big smile and eye-catching pose she was holding.
The Swedish-American actress appeared in legendary films, such as "Bye Bye Birdie," "Carnal Knowledge," "Grumpy Old Men," 'The Cheap Detective," and almost a hundred more as one of Hollywood's ultimate leading ladies and symbols. She was and remains a huge success in showbiz.
