Danielle Brooks is famous for her starring character in Orange Is the New Black, but she was also a member of her high school cheer squad in high school. Eventually, because the miniskirts left her feeling awkward, she quit. “Never quit anything again because you’re scared of what others might think of you – unless you become an exotic dancer, the only exception.
