re: Just found out how much cheerleaders in the NFL make

A girl who is hot enough to be an NFL cheerleader is doing it for the ego boost, the fun of doing it and being part of the dance team (again, validation, ego boost), and because it is fun.

They dont do it to make money. They could be paid zero and there would still be an endless line of girls wanting to do it.

Girls that hot have a line of guys around the block that will give them all the money they need for attention, affection, sex, etc. They pick and choose from those men when they want money. They arent cheerleading as a job or career.
