The Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders are finally getting a significant bump in pay after years of lobbying. 

Four-year veteran Megan McElaney revealed in the second season of the Netflix series “America’s Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders,” which began streaming on Wednesday, that the squad members are getting a 400% increase in pay.

“Our efforts were heard, and they wanted to give us a raise,” McElaney said in episode 7. “And we ended up getting a 400% increase, which is, like, life-changing.”

Former cheerleader Jada McLean told the New York Times that 2024 marked her fifth year with the team, and during that time, she made $15 an hour and $500 for each appearance. Those numbers, according to the report, vary based on experience.

While the new deal does not provide members with health insurance yet, McElaney told the Times that some veteran members could now be making upwards of $75. 

A previous lawsuit brought on by a former NFL cheerleader led to another pay increase in 2019 that brought the appearance up from $200 to $400, CBS Sports reported.

“We are more than just cheerleaders,” McLean added. “We’re talented, strong, educated women and we’re hard-working athletes who deserve to be seen as such.”
