yeah i know, i’m talking about the actual work they put in.

edit: i’ll make my example more clear. a lot of NFL teams have strict workout plans they put their cheerleaders on. those workout plans are unpaid labor they have to do to keep their job since these people aren’t being paid to go to the gym, correct? also NFL teams got busted not paying cheerleaders for mandatory attendance at promotional events like car dealership openings or whatever bc “standing around looking hot isn’t work.”
