Hayden Panettiere really thought she was doing something in Bring It On 3.

1. In Bring It On 3, when Brittany attempted to krump-flirt with Jesse at cheer practice:

Universal Pictures

Like...is she OK?

2. In Save the Last Dance, when Sarah thought that this dance was worthy of a Juilliard admission:

Paramount Pictures

I have so many questions, namely...REALLY?

3. In Bring It On: In It To Win It, when Carson was rehearsing her cheer routine...in the middle of an amusement park:

Universal Pictures

No wonder she got run over by a stroller! You mean to tell me the only place you could practice was in front of a popular rollercoaster??

4. In Raise You Voice, when Terri performed her improvised a capella melody that landed her the solo:

New Line Cinema

As a child, I was like, "HER VOICE!" And now, as an adult, I'm like, "Um, her VOICE?"  

5. In Camp Rock, when Mitchie was impressed with Caitlyn's mad DJ skills:

I only have two words: not good. 

6. Also in Camp Rock, when Shane Gray taught his dance masterclass:

It's the white skinny jeans for me. 

7. In Radio Rebel, when Tara was making eyes at Gavin as he rocked out on stage:

8. In Wild Child, when Poppy attempted to drop it low at the school dance:

Universal Pictures

I will say, I'm not happy...but I'm also not that mad. 

9. In Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging, when Georgia showed up to Slaggy Lindsay's costume party dressed as an olive:

Honestly, rude that her friend group didn't give her a head's up about dressing sexy instead of silly. 

10. In The Clique, when Massie thought this was an appropriate outfit to woo her crush with at her parents' charity auction:

Thank goodness for Claire, or else Massie would have made a huge fool of himself jumping out of that cake. 

11. In Another Cinderella Story, when Mary thought these dance moves were worthy of winning her the dance contest against Joey:

Warner Premiere

I think all 2000s movies should relocate to that town in Footloose where dancing is deemed illegal. 

12. In What A Girl Wants, when Daphne accidentally walked onto the runway at the Royal Dress Show, and instead of calmly exiting the catwalk, she decided to strut down the runway before falling into the lap of one of her dad's colleagues:

Warner Bros.

PARLIAMENT, DAPHNE! YOUR DAD IS IN PARLIAMENT! 

13. In Make It Or Break It, when Payson and Emily ward off the unwanted attention from the Denver delinquents with their sick gymnastics skills:

Freeform

They showed them!

14. In New York Minute, when Jane and Roxy got their "corporate bling" makeovers:

This whole montage was a hate crime. 

15. In The House Bunny, when the mean girls make the Zetas sing "Like a Loser" (to the tune of "Like A Virgin"):

Sony Pictures

In the words of Harmony, "That was not nice!" 

16. In Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, when Stu Wolf came to Carla's party to return Lola's necklace, and then proceeded to dance with her in the middle of a high school party:

Buena Vista Pictures

A) FedEx is always an option. B) Stu...is way too old for this nonsense. 

17. Last, but not least, in Pitch Perfect when Beca sang the cup song:

Universal Pictures

Like, the collective chokehold this song had on ALL of us was strong, but looking back, I'm like, why didn't Beca just learn the song? And what if there hadn't been a cup there? What would she have done then?
