It really depends on the teacher - in my school the teachers aren't very specific but sometimes they don't let the weaker dancers do some of the pointe work. You must have strong enough feet and they have to have at least some flexibility to be able to go on pointe. Hope this helps you!
St. Vitus was the patron saint of ballet dancers.

No! In the past young dancers (8-10) would audition for the Vagonava Academy Russian of Ballet wearing a pair of underwear shorts or a leotard so that the teachers could see their musculature, but never did they audition naked.
No its not true at all. There are many famous male ballet dancers.
Ballet dancers are paid $15,000-$30,000 US dollars on average annually. However this depends on the level of the company and its prestige, and the position you hold in the company. For example, dancers at American Ballet Theatre make more money than dancers at the Portland Ballet Company. Also, principal dancers will make much more than dancers in the corps de ballet.
Ballet dancers dont have to be thin. However in order to gain the flexibility and physical strength for ballet, you do have to be very fit.
All of the dancers i know includinig myself eat normally. Maybe if you are a professional you might try to eat healthier but nothing specific.
