Believe it or not, it’s been 19 years sinceBring It Oncame out. Yep, let that marinate in your brain for a moment.
The year was 2000. Depending where you were in life, you were wearing butterfly clips fromSabrina the Teenage Witchmagazine, rocking flared tencel jeans with your first Siemens mobile in your pocket, or attending the Sydney Olympics without a care in the world about terrorism.
And along with many an exciting millennium trends came a humble movie about rival cheerleading squads from opposite sides of the tracks competing for the ultimate title.

To celebrate, original cast members Kirsten Dunst, Eliza Dushku, Jesse Bradford and Gabrielle Union spoke with Entertainment Weekly this month about how the film was a surprise success and inevitably changed their lives forever.
So much so, Union said Dunst was the only actress on the film not worried about ending up “back in the unemployment line” after filming wrapped. Thankfully, the movie was a hit and still remains an absolute classic.
Thanks to Instagram and LinkedIn, here's where the originalBring It Oncast are now in 2019 .

When recently interviewed on theIn-Depth With Larry Flickshow, the actress said she begrudges always being known as the cheerleader.
"For me, I feel like a lot of things I do people like later. And also, I've never been recognized in my industry. I've never been nominated for anything. Maybe like, twice for a Golden Globe when I was little and one for Fargo. I always feel like nobody—I don't know, maybe they just think I'm the girl fromBring It On."
