They were referring to AMERICA’S SWEETHEARTS: Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, which follows the group from auditions to training camp and the NFL season as they chase their dreams and earn a coveted spot on the team.

Other viewers were shocked by the low salaries of some cheerleaders.

This came after a video in which a former cheerleader on the team, Kat, said she earned about the same as a full-time employee at Chick-fil-A.

According to Cosmopolitan, this equates to around £30,000 a year ($38,266).

That may not seem like a small salary, but compared to that of an NFL player it’s a lot higher: the average salary is around £2.2 million ($2.8 million), while the minimum salary is £556,000 ($705,000).

Charlotte Jones, owner and Chief Brand Officer of the Dallas Cowboys, seems well aware of this, yet unfazed.

The angry reactions from fans showed how surprised they were when they heard what the salary for the role was. They continued:

“I hope the end result is that the women get paid well. And I hope they get paid for this doctor.”

“There is NO good reason why the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders should not be paid a full time living wage. Frankly shocked that some of these women have full time jobs on top of all this.”

‘LADIES, YOU ARE BEING EXPLOITED FOR PROFIT AND THEY ARE SELLING IT AS A PRIVILEGE THAT YOU ARE PART OF THE TEAM’.

“The multimillionaire daughter of a billionaire with an NFL franchise explaining that Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders don’t get paid well, but they don’t do it for the money is crazy.

‘Charlotte Jones laughs as she explains how her organization exploits young women.’
