When a group of males or females looks hot, just from being in close proximity to each other. However, if you were to scrutinize each one individually you would see that they are either simply average looking or even repulsive. This is from the television show "How I met your mother" and is explained by Barney (Neil Patrick Harris)

Person 1: Dayum gurrl, check out that soccer team! Those boys are cute!
Person 2: Not really, if you were to look at each one individually you'd see that they are actually quite unattractive.
Person 1: OMG, you're actually SO right. Freaky shit!
Person 2: I know, it's called the Chearleader Effect, but is also known as the Bridesmaid Paradox or the Spice Girls Conspiracy.

Get the Chearleader Effect mug.The Cheerleader Effect is when a group of women seem hot, but only as a group. Just like with Cheerleaders they seem hot, but take each one of them individually - sled dogs
" I am not impressed with the talent in here tonight. " says Barney.
" Look, there's hot group of girls over there. " says Lily.
" That, my friend is the cheerleader effect, look at each of them individually. " says Barney.
" Woah, I see what you mean! " says Lily.

Get the The Cheerleader Effect mug.The opposite of the women's cheerleader effect (women look more attractive in groups, although unattractive individually) when applied to men. Men who may be attractive on their own will look like a complete douchebag when assembled. Each male's level of toolness is generally acceptable alone but is amplified when mixed with others.
Cody- Dude, Jake and his friends are tools.
Tim- Nah, that's just the reverse cheerleader effect.
Cody- No seriously, he's a tool.
Tim- You're right... it's just worse now.

Get the Reverse Cheerleader Effect mug.Effect where when 3 or more women are located in a bar, pub etc scene together, they appear together as a good looking bunch, but when viewed individually, are actually unattractive. Thought to only be in effect with groups of women, but actually in effect with both sexes.
cheerleader effect where altogether the cheerleading team looks attractive but on closer inspection is quite ugly, the spice girls, the group of women who dance in a circle at the bar-usually with a pile of purses in the middle, occurs at any canadian fraternity common room where all together the men look hot but when checked out are actually bunk ass.

Get the Cheerleader Effect mug.When a group of girls are seemingly hot. But when a closer look is made, each individual is terribly ugly.
Man: Dude I'm going to go pick up one of those chicks.
Dude: No don't it's the cheerleader effect, they are all sick.
Dude: No don't it's the cheerleader effect, they are all sick.
