This girl isn't cute at all and has a masculine jawline.

It's more like a shady talent scout recruited them and got them to sign a low wage, slave contract promising to make them famous (which is highly unlikely). Instead of becoming the stars they dream to be, these girls are actually just appealing to a small number of pedophiles and performing for a small audience. This is pure exploitation and they are selling false dreams to naive young girls.

That's called being a professional.

Local and chika idols have to work side jobs and do God knows what else because they make little money from their "profession".
