She famously played a cheerleader in 2000 high school rom-com Bring It On.

And now Kirsten Dunst is revisiting her days cheering on her squad as she took her seat during today's basketball quarterfinal amid the London 2012 Olympics.

The Spider-Man actress was there to fully support Team USA as they took on Australia to make it through to the semis.

Dunst, 30, dressed casually for the sporting extravaganza as she let her hair down for the afternoon.

She wore a stripy top with a pinafore over the top, while she scraped her blonde locks up into a ponytail.

Kirsten sipped on her beer as she watched the game unfold.

And she certainly seemed in high spirits as she was seen smiling widely throughout - although it could be to do with the fact Team USA beat Australia in a 119-86 win.

Dunst was joined by a mystery male companion in the absence of boyfriend Garrett Hedlund, who is thought to be busy promoting upcoming film On The Road.

Her companion looked equally as happy and relaxed as he went for a casual grey T-shirt and flat cap.

The pair giggled amongst themselves at the North Greenwich Arena and cheered whenever the American players scored.

And the actress got so into the event she shouted out as she took pictures on her BlackBerry to remember the occasion.

She's not the only famous face who has been seen getting involved in the Olympics this week.

Time out: She was at the match minus actor boyfriend Garrett Hedlund, who was missing from the festivities

Thor star Chris Hemsworth and his wife Elsa Pataky watched the water polo yesterday to see the actress' Spanish side play Montenegro.

Members of the royal family, Sin City star Rosario Dawson and David Beckham have all already taken seats to support their teams along the way.
