The Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders are reportedly receiving a 400% pay raise for the upcoming season, as revealed in their Netflix series "America's Sweethearts."

This "life-changing" increase comes after years of advocacy for higher compensation, so the cheerleaders didn't need to work two jobs.

Veterans are expected to earn around $75 per hour, significantly up from the previous $15 per hour.

The Cowboys make millions of dollars a year on cheerleader merch. So yes, not just worth it, long overdue.

Going from $15 an hour to $75 an hour is not 400%.

Well, Fox's Emily Compagno was an Oakland Raider's Cheerleader as well as a well-regarded criminal defense attorney.

She turned out pretty good.

That’s actually better than most squads. A lot are considered volunteers. The Vikings charged their cheerleaders (uniforms I think was the excuse) until they go sued. Teams are pretty horrid to the cheerleaders.

Going to $30 would be 100% increase, $45 = 200%, $60 = 300%, $75 = 400%

I think the 400% means their per game estimate.

Jethro says 75/15 is 5. He knows his goes-into’s. Maybe Jethro should use his HP 35C more.

That’s because Jethro went backwards. A 400% increase is to take the original number, multiply it by 4 and add it to the original. It’s not a raise TO 400% it’s a raise OF 400%. So 400% of 15 is 60, plus 15 = 75. Raise OF 400%.

I’m just making sure everyone is keyed into the math before the pictures show up. Then, all bets are off.
