On Saturday, Aug. 17, Kirsten Dunst proved she still knows how to bring it, reciting the iconic “roll call” chant featured in the opening scene of Bring It On as the 2000 film played in front of her.
“Hate us ‘cause we’re beautiful, but we don’t like you either,” Dunst, 42, chanted along with the movie in an Instagram post. “We’re cheerleaders. We are cheerleaders!”
As the chant continued, Dunst — who stole hearts as bubbly protagonist Torrance Shipman in the Peyton Reed-directed comedy classic — flashed a huge smile and laughed while pushing away the camera.

The sweet clip, captured by Kate and Laura Mulleavy, was filmed at a Los Angeles event held in Dunst’s honor — an outdoor “slumber party” boasting a double feature of Bring It On and The Virgin Suicides.
Dunst surprised fans at the event, which was hosted by Cinespia at Hollywood Forever Cemetery, crashing the sleepover to thank them — and recited more of her iconic lines, per Deadline.
The actress revisited a different part of the Bring It On chant during her surprise appearance, telling the audience: “I’m T-T-Torrance, your captain Torrance. Let’s go, Toros!”

She also said she was “honored” that the crowd had gathered to watch the films, and revealed that she hadn’t seen either The Virgin Suicides or Bring It On since she was a teenager. She filmed the movies at ages 16 and 17, respectively.
“Oh my god, you guys. This is the craziest thing I’ve ever witnessed in my life,” Dunst said, per Deadline.
“I am so overwhelmed,” she continued. “My friends and family are here, I’m gonna watch with you guys. I haven’t seen any of these movies since I was a teen myself, with an audience. I’m so honored.”
Dunst also expressed gratitude toward the company that made the slumber party-themed event possible, writing on Instagram, “Thank you #cinespia.”
