I get what you’re saying but the market bears out for this role. There are obviously other benefits to being a cheerleader for a pro organization that make it worth the time and the wage. The proof is in the number of girls who try out for these positions and the amount of effort that is invested into making the squad and performing well.

The line is long and full of beautiful women wanting to do this, so the pay is very little.


Roughly 1,000 of the hottest chicks in Texas went down to Houston this weekend ... to try out for a spot on the Texans cheerleading squad...TMZ Sports ...

Some teams (I.e., Dallas) treat it as a more full time gig and have numerous appearances. Those make a bit more but do have day jobs. Went to grad school with now psychologist/Saints cheerleader.

I know in the early 2000's Sainsations were making less than $50/day. I went to school with 3 Sainsations at Nicholls.

Wages are set by supply and demand. Those girls are easily replaceable. There's a thousand girls that would take a spot, and let's be honest, there's not a lot of skill involved. Thus, low pay.

Really?? Salaries are market driven. They are paid what the market demands. You are suggesting socialism.

you would think they would at least make liveable wages for such a high profile job


How is NFL cheerleader “high profile”?

Can you actually name a single nfl cheerleader?

The Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders get $1000 per game. Plus they can make money from appearances and such.

When are tryouts? And what are the requirements? Would a simple cartwheel get me in? Also I can walk in my hands for at least a minute. That has to get me at least a few thousand bucks right?

For 70k a game no wonder they are all smiling. This is whole time I thought they were just getting penetrated by multi million dollar nfl players.

I dated a Saintsation in the late 90s. She made $15 for the game. Nice girl. I think she married an attorney on the north shore.


Yes, I married her. She refused to have pre-marital sex with me and after we married she claimed that: 1) she never had oral sex in her life and didn't care to start; 2) she only had sex with one other person in her life besides me and his name was Bofa.

If your name Bofa?

It's only $75-$125 a game. That's disgusting for a billion dollar industry and the high demands put on those girls!




Its beyond embarrassing, NFL should be ashamed. They should get $1000/week minimum considering the time they commit during the season.

Compare it the beer guys at the game. Imagine youre the beer guy and you had to show up Tuesday and Thursday to practice for three-four hours and then show up on Sundays to make $100. You'd be pissed.

How much should we pay for people whose only skill in life is to stand on grass while wearing lingerie? If they want to make more money they can start taking off their clothes.

Makes me wonder why the hell girls even do it.

Kind of makes you think they just want attention, right?
