Bring It On Cast: Where Are They Now?

You’ll remember her as Big Red, the outgoing head of the Toros cheerleading squad who had a little ‘help’ coming up with their killer dance routines. After filming, Lindsay ditched the red ‘do, but has kept busy with acting, landing roles in movies, such as “She’s Out of My League”, “Horrible Bosses” 1 and 2, and TV shows, like “Playing House” and “The Odd Couple”. More recently, she appeared in the indie flick “Endings, Beginnings”. In 2014, Lindsay married fellow actor Dar Rollins, with whom she has two daughters. When she’s not acting, she’s involved in philanthropy, promoting such campaigns as “No Kid Hungry” - a charity that feeds hungry children in low-income communities across the U.S.

Dude, it's Darcy! Tsianina was prepared for playing the role of a fit and fierce cheerleader, having previously won Miss Fitness USA in 1997. After filming, she had a few supporting roles in films like “American Pie 2” and shows such as CSI. But perhaps what she’s most known for is portraying Varia, the Amazon Goddess seeking vengeance in the final season of “Xena: Warrior Princess”. Tsianina doesn’t seem to be acting anymore these days, but she’s happily married to cinematographer Michael Lohmann, and the couple currently reside in Brentwood, Tennessee, with their children. They reportedly fell in love with Tennessee after moving there in 2013 for Michael’s work on the second season of “Nashville”.

Natina played Jenelope, the East Compton Clover who gave us some of the best one-liners of the movie. But in real life she was a serious musician. Along with co-stars Shamari Fears and Brandi Williams. Natina was part of the girl group Blaque. Their debut album eventually sold 1.5 million copies. In the early 2000s, Natina got engaged to rapper Kurupt and together they had a son, Tren, in 2002. Blaque then released three less-successful singles, including 2004’s "I'm Good". It appeared on the “Honey” soundtrack, but didn’t gain much popularity after that. The group was working on more music in 2012 when Natina tragically died after being struck by a car. Her son is following his late mother’s footsteps as a musician.

Perhaps portraying the Torus squad’s most “hands-on” male cheerleader was more than enough acting for Nathan. Although he dabbled with acting throughout the years, including guest spots on “Bones”, “That 80s Show”, and “Grey’s Anatomy”, he’s since moved on to another big role - being a husband and father. He met his wife—Supergirl actress Chyler Leigh—on set of “7th Heaven” in 2000. The couple married in 2002 and went on to have three children. These days, in addition to being a family man, Nathan is focused on creating music with his wife through their musical project East of Eli.
