Myths of NFL Cheerleaders Unraveled
So there's tons of cheerleaders out there dancing on the field and never bothered to meet them. Everything we do is just look at them dancing, think 'oh they dance good, look good, typical cheerleaders' and move on without thinking about what really happens behind the scenes of a cheerleader for the NFL. Well, I'm here to say that there is more than meets the eye. All these movies he saw as "Bring It On" and television programs that showed a group of drama queens and entertainers have all evil.
Myth # 1 – It is easy to be a cheerleader in the NFL.
Um. No. There is no way that is easy to be a cheerleader. Both enter the auditions, which is lucky, even make him the team in the first place. Hundreds of girls try and have to be in the top 3% to do it on your computer, no joke. All dance good, look good, is energetic, enthusiastic, and have a great personality above all. After entering the computer, it takes hours of practice almost every day in order to get the NFL down dance routines. It gets worse when they have to dance in the cold, especially in northern states (which some NFL teams use as an excuse not to have a cheerleading squad and if not all NFL teams have a cheerleading squad) . Outside of the dances, they also have to appear for charity events, guest appearances, no photo shoots and even travel abroad to meet our own U.S. military troops to keep morale high. Who said being a cheerleader was easy, obviously has not seen one at work.
Myth: Cheerleaders NFL football stars meet and date of your
Absolutely not. NFL Cheerleaders are not allowed to "fraternize" with the players. That means no flirting, no personal relationships, not personal "friends" or anything that might imply a relationship outside the professional field in the NFL. Yes, you can interact a little in charity events and appearances, but usually you have more lucky to meet football stars as a janitor cleaning their locker rooms, or a sort of groupie. Cheerleaders going out with the likes of Tom Brady and Randy Moss? Forget it.
Myth: NFL Cheerleaders shelf in fame and fortune
How much they get paid cheerleaders in the NFL? The answer to this question is $ 15 to $ 50 per game. Heck, there are times when they are not paid at all. Must be presented to the appearance of guests, photo shoots, performances abroad for U.S. troops and all that is most likely not paid. Do not feel too bad for them. Some of them leave cheerleading and find that a lot of opportunities await because of their status as elite of the NFL cheerleaders. Teri Hatcher of Desperate Housewives was a San Francisco 49ers Gold Rush Cheerleader once and look where it is now. Make $ 285,000 an episode and multiply that by 10 + episodes per season. Now who wants to be an NFL cheerleader?
Myth: NFL Cheerleaders are stupid and act like valley girls
Yes, NFL cheerleaders are hot, but he said he can not combine beauty with intelligence? People tend to associate with cheerleaders dizzy valley girls who enjoy shopping and being the drama queens. Well these are not cheerleaders in high school and for one thing. Another thing is that these leaders need to be mature and intelligent to respond to the media. After all, are an important aspect of the team's public image.
NFL cheerleaders deserve a better reputation. Surely there's a black sheep out there, but overall the NFL cheerleaders are good girls who do their best to perform for us. The least we can do is show our appreciation. Do not forget to also contribute to the community in charitable events that help to go to local and national level.Let's show our support to them and give them the credit they deserve.
