This is the classic ‘Bend & Snap’. A extending of the legs, bending over to pick something up and ‘snapping’ quickly up at the end. This is a star point in this movie.

It is a high school version of Legally blonde. It is called ‘Legally Blondes.”
They’ve got spirit, spunk, sass and a killer routine. The Toro cheerleading squad from Rancho Carne High School in San Diego is hoping this killer routine will land them the national championship trophy for the sixth year in a row.

This video is compiled with all the best scenes as well as the quotes we all know and love. To prove this movie is a cult classic, take a look at Ariana Grande’s Music video for her song ‘Thank You, Next.” It proves what an effect this movie had. She has used many scenes from the movie to portray her song. Ariana also portrays Legally Blonde and Bring It On in this video as well! It’s the whole package.
Ugh, AS IF! Shallow, rich and socially successful Cher is at the top of her Beverly Hills high school’s pecking scale. Seeing herself as a matchmaker, Cher first tricks two teachers into dating each other. Taken back by her success, she decides to give hopelessly klutzy new student Tai a makeover. When Tai becomes more popular than she is, Cher realizes that her disapproving ex-step brother was right about how misguided she was, and falls for him.
This is a personal favorite scene of mine! This movie has become a huge part of our culture today, especially that lovely yellow outfit Cher wears. This movie was also an inspiration for the artist Iggy Azalea with her song “Fancy ft. Charli XCX.” You notice the same outfit as well as the same scenes. Take a look!

Left without options, Marcus and Kevin decide to pose as the sisters, transforming themselves from African-American men into a pair of blonde, white women. White Chicks is a fan favorite.
This scene is the iconic ‘Bitch Fit’. This scene has been recreated through tik tok and YouTube videos countless times. This is the scene associated with the movie whenever anyone talks about it. It is a movie that is a classic and always will be.
These movies are classics, and you see the scenes being recreated, or even used as YouTube video ideas. These movies also drove the fashion it is today, a lot of early 2000’s style is starting to show back up. Without these movies, pop culture would not be what it is today.
