Jayma Mays

Considering Emma Pillsbury’s role she plays on Glee, which constantly fighting with cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester, it’s ironic that Jayma Mays was a cheerleader in high school herself. It looks like Mays made one heck of a cheerleader with her ringlet curls, big bright smile, and neatly pressed uniform. So it seems as if she got along quite well with the rest of the girls on her team judging, by the way, all-girl on the left’s reaction on her playful pose. She most recently starred in the NBC sitcom Trial & Error as prosecutor Carol Anne Keane, which lasted for two seasons before being canceled in 2018.

Even though this photograph does not scream cheer captain as that of the illustration of other famous people on this list, trust us that during her grade school days, Jones was a contributing member of the spirit squad. Even if she was a cheerleader, Rashida Jones, she confessed to having to take part in the math club and the National Honor Society as being one of those “well-rounded students.” She was a highly intelligent cheerleader and no such balance is really that terrible. We can easily see why she succeeds with anything that she is doing now.
