Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders say they're getting a 400% increase in pay
The Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders say they are getting a serious increase in pay. One of the cheerleaders has said during the second season of the Netflix series 'America's Sweethearts: Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders' that the members are getting a 400% boost in pay. The cheerleaders have been pushing for pay increases for years. In 2019, the Cowboys settled a lawsuit with a former cheerleader that led to the squad doubling the per-game pay, from $200 to $400. The latest raise is four times that. 'Our efforts were heard and they wanted to give us a raise,' four-year veteran Megan McElaney said on the show. 'And we ended up getting a 400% increase, which is like, life-changing.' According to ESPN, the Cowboys agreed to pay four cheerleaders a total of $2.4 million nine years ago to settle claims by the women that the team's longtime public relations chief, Rich Dalrymple, filmed them in the dressing room. Dalrymple denied the claims, and the club said its investigation found no wrongdoing by him. Dalrymple retired not long before the settlement became public in 2022. The Cowboys have been the most valuable pro sports team in the world for almost a decade, according to Forbes magazine. That number was $10.1 billion in rankings published late last year. "Happy' isn't even the right word for it,' former cheerleader Jada McLean said on the show. 'I think I was just ... kind of felt, like, a relief, like everything had paid off. And it was, you know, finally, we were done fighting.' ___

Hilarious moment Sunny Hostin tried to stop Arnold Schwarzenegger from telling migrants to be grateful to US
The View 's Sunny Hostin tried - and failed - to interrupt Arnold Schwarzenegger as he spoke on the daytime talk show about how migrants should treat the US when they arrive. Hostin, 56, tried to interrupt Schwarzenegger not once but twice during Tuesday's episode, as the actor and former California governor explained how he felt about the anti-ICE riots occurring in Los Angeles. Co-host Joy Behar reminded Schwarzenegger of how he was 'once an immigrant of this country,' leading him to give a lengthy response. 'I just think the world of the history of immigrants in America,' Schwarzenegger said, adding 'we need to do things legal.' Hostin then tried try to speak over the star, a week after claiming that two-thirds of Americans polled in a January survey supported deportations of undocumented migrants simply due to their own misunderstanding. 'You got to do things legal,' Schwarzenegger pressed on. 'And those people that are doing illegal things in America - and they're foreigners - they are not smart, because when you come to America, you're a guest.' Hostin again tried to pry her way in by placing her her hand on Schwarzenegger's arm to indicate she wanted to speak - to no avail. 'And you have to behave like a guest,' Schwarzenegger continued unfazed. 'Like, when I go to someone's house and I'm a guest, then I will do everything I can to keep things clean. Everything that is the right thing to do - rather than committing a crime or being abusive.' The actor ultimately declared that migrants should be working not only to improve their situations, but the situation of the country that accepted them. Schwarzenegger, who arrived in the US from Austria in 1968, talked up the US as 'the land of opportunity,' crediting the country for his career. 'I am going to America to use the great opportunities that America has - in education, jobs, creating a family, all of those kind of things,' he went on. 'You have to think, if I get all of those things from America, I have to give something back. 'You have a responsibility as an immigrant to give back to America [and] to pay back America. 'Go do something for your community for no money whatsoever. Make this country a better place.' He then received a round of applause from the audience. A critic of Trump, Schwarzenegger voted for Kamala Harris in last year's election. In 2003, he became one of the rare Republicans to win a gubernatorial bid in California. Last week, Trump mobilized another 2,000 National Guard members as protests in LA continued. The chaos was triggered by immigration raids that resulted in dozens of arrests and a dispersal order from downtown overnight after an intense day of demonstrations in the region. Around 300 National Guard troops were deployed initially, and hundreds more since. Trump has said the National Guard was necessary because California Gov. Gavin Newsom and other Democrats have failed to quell recent protests targeting immigration agents.
