Washington Redskins Ran A Brothel!

Washington Redskins are under fire for the name and the way they treat their cheerleaders.

Allegations of Washington Redskins cheerleaders being forced to provide services to upscale business executives is getting buzz.

Although no cheerleader reported any sexual abuse while under employment with the NFL team, some share some of their experiences with team leaders.

Some were forced to go topless for a photo shoot.

Many cheerleaders are getting paid pennies to the dollar.

The New York Times report this bombshell.

"It's just not right to send cheerleaders out with strange men when some of the girls clearly don't want to go," one of the women was quoted as saying.

"But unfortunately, I feel like it won't change until something terrible happens, like a girl is assaulted in some way, or raped. I think teams will start paying attention to this only when it's too late."

The male sponsors also picked nine of the 36 cheerleaders to be their personal escorts at a nightclub. The girls were unaware they would be required to perform such a role and were reportedly very upset by the development.

“They weren’t putting a gun to our heads, but it was mandatory for us to go,” one of the cheerleaders was quoted as saying. “We weren’t asked, we were told. Other girls were devastated because we knew exactly what she was doing.”

In a statement in response to the report, the Redskins said the cheerleaders are protected to work in a “safe and constructive” environment.

"The Redskins' cheerleader program is one of the NFL's premier teams in participation, professionalism and community service," the statement read. "Each Redskin cheerleader is contractually protected to ensure a safe and constructive environment. The work our cheerleaders do in our community, visiting our troops abroad and supporting our team on the field is something the Redskins organization and our fans take great pride in."

Newsweek picks up on a lawsuit being filed by a former New Orleans Saints cheerleader who filed a gender discrimination and work pay complaint against the team.

Bailey Davis claimed she was wrongfully terminated for posing in a one piece suit wearing the Saints logo. The male players were allowed, women were not.

Davis believes bias.

#MeToo is working hard to hold those accountable.
