Heather Locklear looks quite cheerful here for someone who probably quite recently found out that she wasn't going to be allowed on the cheerleading squad at Newbury Park High School, which is where she spent her formative years. Maybe it's because she'd already hatched a plan - if the cheerleading squad wasn't going to have her, the drama club would. She performed an audition, got in the club, and the rest is history.
If you were a child of the 1990s, Locklear would be instantly recognizable to you as the star of 'Melrose Place,' in which she starred as Amanda Woodward for almost the entire decade. 80s kids, by contrast, are more familiar with her as Sammy Jo Carrington on 'Dynasty' - a part she also played for ten years. She must just like taking ten-year-long jobs. At least they give you some stability as a performer!
