Emma Watson
Emma Watson may be a bookworm while playing Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movies, but at her all-girls school in England she was very much an athlete, taking part in hockey, tennis and skiing. We're sorry to say Quidditch wasn't on that list.

Ashton Kutcher
Ashton Kutcher was a handsome wide receiver on his high school's football team. We're pretty sure he got all the ladies. Little did he know, not so far down the road, he'd be marrying someone who could have been his teacher ...

Tom Welling
Tom Welling was a certified jock at Okemos High School in Michigan. He played basketball, baseball and was the goalkeeper for the soccer team. All those sports must have prepared him to be the Man of Steel. Just look at him.

Madonna
Madonna was a member of the Rochester Adams High cheerleading squad and even received a dance scholarship to Michigan University. We're all well aware this prepared her for much greater things later in life. Just vogue, people.

Jessica Biel
Jessica Biel was an avid soccer player growing up and idolized female soccer star Mia Hamm. It's no wonder Jessica was involved in such an intense sport, as she certainly has kept up her athletic frame. Seriously, we're scared of her.

Britney Spears
Britney Spears was on the girls' basketball team at Parklane Academy in McComb, Mississippi. Later, she even played with then-boyfriend Justin Timberlake in the NBA All-Star Celebrity game. Unfortunately, nowadays, the only sport Britney participates in is 'Please the Paparazzi.'

Blake Lively
Blake Lively was a hardcore soccer player in her role on 'Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants' but in real life she was a cheerleader at Burbank High School. Not to buy into the stereotype, but she must have made the most perfect blonde cheerleader. Now she's an actress. Must be nice.

Brad Pitt
Brad Pitt played tennis in his high school days. Obviously someone told him he was too pretty to continue on that path and he went on to Hollywood. But, hey, if he's ever down for a match, we're all for shirts v. skins. We think you know which side he's on.
