Bengals Cheerleader Sues NFL Over Wages, Overtime
Oakland Raiderettes already suing
Every game day Alexa Brenneman , 24, a Ben Gal cheerleader for the Cincinnati Bengals, woke up at 4 a.m.to get ready. Her hair and make-up had to be perfect before she reached the stadium at 8 a.m. for two practices and autograph signing before the game started. After that, it was four straight hours of cheering, dancing, and smiling.
And she loved it.
Until she did the numbers on what she was being paid and realized she was being exploited.
