Kirsten Dunst was @ 18, Jesse Bradford was @ 21, Eliza Dushku was @ 20, and all passed as high school age. But Gabrielle Union was 28 - who are they foolin? Unless she kept flunk in out so she'd stay a cheerleader. It's ridiculous, that they couldn't find a 18-22 year old to play Gabrielle ' s part.

Hollywood doesn't except beautiful black actress until they are over 25. Gabrielle didn't look old though she has a baby face.

Lindsay Sloane who played Big Red did not look like she could pass for high school age at all

lol i always assumed big red was meant to be older. a few of them looked a lot older than they were.

Don't forget Stockard Channing was 33 when she played Rizzo in Grease, and Stacey Dash was 28 when she played Dionne in Clueless.
