Samuel L. Jackson

He may be the last person you would think to be on this page, but the fact is that when he was a student at Morehouse College, Samuel L. Jackson was indeed in the cheer squad. Apparently, he participated to meet women, because Morehouse is a school for men. During his days at school, he joined a local acting troupe to get points in a class to become a marine biologist. This spurred his interest and he decided to switch majors and eventually obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Drama degree. He has now become a phenomenal artist.

Jesse James Decker

Over the years after she became a cheerleader at the age of fifteen, Jesse James Decker has continued to develop but it has always been at the side of her passion for music. She was rejected after auditioning by Nashville labels in the same year, although it was her experiences there that made her feel better. In a couple of years, Decker composed and performed hit songs, and started to gain attention. Together with her partner, retired NFL wide receiver Eric Decker, she has since shown up, in reality, TV shows and got caught up with fashion design. In the end, Decker launched a clothing line called Kittenish online. Kittenish opened its first physical location in February 2019 in Nashville, Tennessee. A second branch is located near Destin, Florida.
