Språklådan del 33: Hollaback Girl

Ville kolla vad Gwen Stefani egentligen vill med låten "Hollaback Girl". På sidan Urban dictionary fanns ett antal förklaringar. Jag finner nr 5 mest intressant:

"A girl suffering from lordosis, an abnormal forward curvature of the spine in the lumbar region. Example: Damn, shes fucked up lookin and walks funny. Must be a holla back girl."

Men nr 3 är nog mer rimlig:

"A holla back girl is a member of a cheerleading squad who repeats – hollers back - words that the squad leader shouts out to them. For example at a Pep Rally, cheerleaders might shout out “S-P-I-R-I-T” and the squad leader asks “What does that spell?” and the holla back girls respond – hollering back “SPIRIT”. In the context of Gwen Stefani’s song “Hollaback Girl”, the term also refers to a girl who has heard about some guy talking bad about her and she isn’t just going to take it – she is going to be the leader, take charge and put an end to his verbal “cheerleading”."
