Check out how much money the Cheerleaders at the NFL Super Bowl bag:
NFL-supporting cheerleaders are often compensated per game.
The average compensation is $150 every game day and $50 to $75 for public appearances, which works out to around $22,500 annually.
Cheerleaders who have been in the league longer and who are regarded as professionals receive more, though.
They reportedly get between $15 and $20 per hour and $500 every match. A professional NFL cheerleader, like those who will perform during the Super Bowl, is said to be able to make around $75,000 per year.
If their teams make it through the playoffs and reach (or perhaps win) the Super Bowl, professional cheerleaders may also be eligible for further incentives.

Pro cheerleaders will only make an average of $15 to $20 per hour, though. A part-time job that pays $9 per hour is supporting cheerleaders, which may be paid much less.
If a professional cheerleader is ill or unable to perform on a particular game day, these people may step in.
For their cheerleader auditions, several NFL teams pay to audition. Even their travel, hair, and makeup costs as well as costumes are not covered. These people typically earn $20,000 a year.
