I don't necessarily "speak" hip-hop... but I think what Gwen's saying in 'hollaback girl' (and mind you, she didn't write the song... Pharell did) is that she's not one to just sling jabs at people... if you're going to talk smack, be prepared to back it up... because she is.Thank goodness for you, Ann! I think I get Gwen's gist, but is there such an entity as a "hollaback girl"? What IS one?iuparrothead wrote:

Well, my daughter (she's 22) and I were hanging out yesterday and it came on the sound system at the bar we had lunch at . . . we were wondering what the term meant. She said she thought it was sorta like a "booty call" girl . . . not good enough to have a relationship with . . . so I asked here!?iuparrothead wrote:Hmmm... I'm not sure.

I was getting an error message when I posted a response... so that was a test post... first three letters I typed.Good point. I don't necessarily think a 'hollaback girl' is an established hip hop term. Pharrell wrote that song & created that moniker for Gwen. If you take a look at the lyrics, she challenges someone (I'm assuming a girl, even though she says dude) to a fight behind the bleachers.mexcooker12 wrote:Actually I believe that 'hollaback girl' in hip hop terms is when guys will see attractive women walk by and they will yell at them 'hollaback girl' as a way of trying to get their attention and letting them know that they are hot. I think gwen is saying in this song that if you want to hook up with her thats not going to work because "she aint no hollaback girl"
So what's the cheerleader thing with the Pompoms??tikitatas wrote:Well, my daughter (she's 22) and I were hanging out yesterday and it came on the sound system at the bar we had lunch at . . . we were wondering what the term meant.

Since Gwen Stefani sings it I think it's probably some kind of code for "I have no talent so I shake my ass at the camera when I make videos and hope all the 12 year olds get wood."tikitatas wrote:hip-hop?
What IS a "holla back girl"??
Another interesting theory...tikitatas wrote:So what's the cheerleader thing with the Pompoms??

Gwen is apparently the captain of the cheerleader squad; she is the girl who “hollas” the chants, not one of the girls who simply “hollas” them back. Given that the squad is preparing to beat somebody up on Gwen’s behalf, she’s picked a strange time to remind them that she is their leader and they are her sheep-like followers. Gwen obviously rules her squad with an iron fist.
