For years, the mythmaking and prestige of being a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader has been used as an explanation for the low wages, presenting the cheerleaders as motivated not by money but by something “bigger than that to them,” as Charlotte Jones, the Dallas Cowboys’ executive vice president and chief brand officer, described it on the show.
Really.
