Lyrics:
Maybe if I act like that, that guy will call me back
Porno Paparazzi girl, I don't wanna be a stupid girl
Go to Fred Segal, you'll find them there
Laughing loud so all the little people stare
Looking for a daddy to pay for the champagne
(Drop a name)
What happened to the dreams of a girl president
She's dancing in the video next to 50 Cent
They travel in packs of two or three
With their itsy bitsy doggies and their teeny-weeny tees
Where, oh where, have the smart people gone?
Oh where, oh where could they be?
Maybe if I act like that, that guy will call me back
Porno Paparazzi girl, I don't wanna be a stupid girl
Baby if I act like that, flipping my blond hair back
Push up my bra like that, I don't wanna be a stupid girl - Hudba
I remember an interview with her about it and she said she wasn’t calling any of the people actually stupid but that the were acting stupid in order to please men.
Now we call them pick me girls
Earla Weese There’s absolutely zero correlation. Nice try though.
And the lack of positive female role models if I recall correctly
Did GLEE sing this?
Girls that are like that so desperate for attention it makes me sick
I love how she don’t give a flip about offending other celebrities lol
What’s funny is that she just reacted to this video not that long ago and she said “I love making fun of people 😂 I also love making fun of myself... hahaha, I’m such an asshole” we have no choice but to stan.
I don't know I heard she broke her wrist during that car wash scene
Unlike taylor swift lol
Taylor Swift and Miley Cyrus would also be perfect celebrities to make fun of in this video if it was remade in 2020.
@@bdjoh011 Miley yes, but also Niki Minaj, Cardi B and, of course, Kardashian clan.
Y'all have to understand that in the 2000s, the height of the "bimbo starlet" had the world in a chokehold. Pink's not criticizing their femininity or sex appeal, she's criticizing their facade; hiding their intelligence to come off as submissive or "cute" for lucrative gain. The damage is young girls watching shows like The Simple Life and aspiring to become that unaware that it's an act.
If anything, this song is much more relevant now than ever especially with the current artifice of social media "influencers". The message still stands the same as in 2006; we should aspire for more rather than shallow, inauthentic appeal.
And she's being critical of that culture that bullied and attacked whoever didn't conform. The youngsters didn't live those awful times so they don't understand the context.
Paris Hilton
2024 Anyone
So including them having an ED is supposed to do what exactly? Also, who are you to tell someone how they should live their life? Little girls being influenced by these “bimbos” is something parents should be worried about, not you or Miss P!nk.
If I were born a woman, I would be acting like Paris Hilton so I could get that bag. Fuck being a President for a shitty country that can’t even let women have rights to their own body. 🤣
I hate her @@leenevin8451
I MISS THESE DAYS! She was speaking to the teen in me with each song. THANK YOU P!NK!!!
"What happened to the dream of a girl president? She's dancing in the video next to 50 Cent"
My favourite part
the best is that it's actually 50cent is in that part of the clip
I literally laughed out loud at that!
AnaPrado that’s not actually him it’s a double
Mine too
@@michealsmith4422 it's not a double. If you watch the making of the music video Pink called up 50 cent for the shoot.
This song has become more relevant now, I swear 😂
PhoenixGrey I agree!! It seems like people are forgetting this message more nowadays too
It’s not that they forgot.
They don’t want to remember.
That's why All these comments new
Uncharted Raider pink said this song is about stupid women who do shit to please men. People aren't stupid for getting surgery or dressing a certain way. If it makes someone happy who the fuck am I to judge??
Pink called it out back then when it was just starting to take over. That’s been the culture since.
The song holds the message of girls being valuable individuals as they are without changing themselves under the pressure of mainstream standards, which can make you stray away from what you originally want and damage you, it was really empowering and confidence boosting to listen to it as a little girl, still does
No, it Is about stupid girls ❤
Nah, its just the ultimate nOt LiKe ThE oThEr GirLs anthem. Making fun of eating disorders, of Paris Hilton being a victim of revenge porn when her sex tape was leaked and just girl who want to be feminine is not empowering. Im glad feminism moved away from girly = bad and sporty = good.
The fact that one of the reasons that made P!nk wrote that song was because people said she was "too masculine" because of her looks and personality and that she should fit in with the standards of other girls in the industry... Literally is criticizing the pressures and beauty standards that girls had in the 2000s
De hecho siguen teniendo.
Pink really should do more acting jobs she's hilarious 😂
She’s like the female version of Eminem with her crazy acting lol
I agree
Ellie A she’s worked with Eminem and they’re friends
YEAH! AND REAL..
She is one of the funniest at her own expense (& others)and I love that about her!! That's my kind of humor.. its playful not too serious, but real
This song isn’t insulting girls just because they change themselves, it’s insulting girls who change themselves just to get attention from men. It’s encouraging girls being true to themselves and what they really want.
Thanks to remind me
Dream weaver but what if my goal is to lure men to their deaths with the power of my looks?🤔
Well No it is not because it is Also making fun of eating disorders and sex workers and thats not ok.
@@daxehehe1588 It's referencing particular people, get a grip.
Indeed. The reason why I really love this song since I was a kid 🤧🤧
How relevant is this song today as well …. Just imagine how ahead it’s time it was at the time of release …. P!nK just nailed it ❤
I mean it's always a right time to be a misogynistic woman in a misogynistic culture.
I definitely agree that this has beeeeeeeennnnnnnnn relevant, though it wasn't ahead of it's time... It's just still happening unfortunately. Maybe even worse now! Cause now we know it's not just girls😅
Nah, its just the ultimate nOt LiKe ThE oThEr GirLs anthem. Making fun of eating disorders, of Paris Hilton being a victim of revenge porn when her sex tape was leaked and just girl who want to be feminine is not empowering. Im glad feminism moved away from girly = bad and sporty = good.
It's how society was then and is even more prevalent now. Its even worse because you have onlyfans models making millions while hard working intelligent women make nothing. Bimboness is being celebrated so of course women will use it to make money. No shame to them take advantage of the men causing society to be this way by all means... but it doesn't make it right or fair. It's harder now to be woman, or at least as bad, more importantly a woman outside society's beauty standards, then it was in the 50s.
@@parthianarrow5874There's nothing misogynistic about expecting women to be more than just bimbos. In fact it's quite the damn opposite.
Request addressed to P!nk: Please bring back this kind of attitude and sound🙏🙏🙏Us mature ladies (50+) and young girls need all that was on this album and more.
Love and blessings to you!
🙌🏻 Well said, I strongly second and *support* this sentiment 😌✊🏻
It's okay to be girly, I think this video is just a reminder to make sure you're doing it for the right reasons. Don't throw away your personality/ambition, especially to become some guy's object.
Yeah, too bad the videoclip sends a very different message :/
But girliness has nothing to do with acting stupid like these girls do....
I kinda think my personality is changing to become one of them, im a people pleaser
she had a good idea, but the video is a mess
From internalized misogyny, to jokes about eating disorders, to stereotyping women, this video appeals more to the patriarchy than it does feminism.
"It's okay to label and shame women cause they already do it to themselves"
@@Melissa31832 It's called a parody. She is using stereotypes on purpose, to criticize the behavior of some girls who dumb themselves down to please men and seek popularity. Those girls only reinforce patriarchal values. Everyone should be held accountable for their stupid actions. Women included.
Yeah she talks about how Paris confronted her about the song, and Paris said "I'm not really stupid, I just act stupid". And Pink was like that's the point of the song.
Exactly, while it's cool to look good it's not cool to ACT stupid
@Veronica A. Reese is pretty chill.
Okay.
Not to be and only ACT?? nobody can show herself a stupid if she is not really a stupid. To spend all life as stupid thing its not normal for person, even u think its only your role for money.
Nufogirl Sher this is kind of funny after the documentary lol
She really did that. Crazy this is still relevant.
2024 Anyone
Looks like times haven’t changed huh
The lyrics literally say "maybe if I ACT like that", it's not, and has never been, an attack on being a 'girly girl' - it's about being FAKE to get attention.
In other words: it's ok to be a tomboy, it doesn't make you any less of a woman, and it's also ok to be feminine, just don't reduce yourself into thinking your worth relies - entirely - on your sex appeal. It doesn't.
Acting like that means acting like 2000s era Paris Hilton and Jessica Simpson (watch these boots Jessica Simpson film clip for reference).
Exactly
An Aussie yes ma’am lol
Ok, when a guy acts fake that okay? You’re alright with being fake with females. Though when ya females do it. We’re either sluts, Thots, or fake. Like, instead of making them have to think that if they needed to act that way. Maybe they wouldn’t have to change. Change isn’t being fake honestly, change is adapting so they can be accepted.
I can also see the point why you feel you have to call people ‘FAKE’ though when a guy gets mad for a girl who doesn’t have a butt or boobs, they know they can’t exactly change that in seconds. You don’t always see guys getting attacked by they’re appearance and how they act.
Though yeah, you probably haven’t been in a situation like this to understand majority of the people here. So you should stop calling them fake just because of one day they’re this and then the next that. Like think why the person is acting that way instead of immediately going off at them.
What’s so bad about being fake to get attention? Pink is just shaming other women.
This song will always be relevant
Amy Marie true
The feminist anthem :D
Daniel lol, no.
True. Never be a Basic Bitch.
I ws obsessed w this
this song is still a hit 2024
I was so glad when she released this. Nobody was talking about the absurdity of the Paris Hilton Era and its influence in girls.
It's pretty sad that this song is still completely relevant almost 10 years later
And it's more relevant than ever now.
Yeah, we thought back then we had reached the bottom, but no, today, it's worse than ever...
I fear the next decade...
Seems like most girls think this is the way to act. smh
Evan Bagwell it will be relevant for decades I'm sad to say
Ikr
What stuck with me most about this is she says "I'm so glad that I'll never fit in that will never be me, outcasts and girls with ambition that's what I want to see" has always been the best line of this song
oh yes ambition is such a great idea..we can see that in men...
KN JB what
Yep, always inspires me to study harder than ever to pass my exams with flying colours. I'm not a sports kinda girl, but I have great ambition for filming and that line always keeps me going to achieve my dream of getting into the film industry.
KN JB What? Are you implying that women aren't ambitious?
I love that line, its so me lol. Ive always loved pink shes so awesome!!
I love this song and the music video, since I was a Teenager. It helped me to understand that it's great to be what you are and not to clone yourself to be something, or someone that you don't want to be. That's why I love Pink ❤
2024 Has Anybody
11 years later, if you're still watching this, you're a legend .
Sooo true
Pink for president
she's got my vote
anytime
Dear mister president😂😂😂
Thatll end well
Yasssss plss
LMAO she went IN!!! Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan and Jessica Simpson were all referenced here... She called everyone ALL the way out!
And now the kardashians
Now we have Kardashians...
Where is Lindsay
sun leo the red haired one that using the phone while driving.
at least lindsay did have a career at some point...its just sad that she became more of a 'socialite/personality'
This song gets more and more relevant and it's honestly pretty sad
Sad this song is needed now more than ever.. She was ahead of her time with this 1 always a classic 4 me
2021 - still actual even more then before
yup
nah you can be hot and smart
Yup especially the pandemic part. How Karen were described in the song second part is hilarious.
True
@@TM-tr7re true but that’s not what we’re talking about in the song lolol
To understand the message of this song you need to know about what was happening at that moment, beauty was about being extremely skinny, eating disorders were just a way "to lose weight", etc., this song was so powerful back then because girls used to think they weren't beautiful if they weren't extremely skinny, so they would just do things to get famous, it didn't matter if they needed to have eating disorders or to do "stupid things" just to be famous. That's what the song is about, so please stop saying this song is judging women because it's not.
Same as today... girls looking for men and media attention...
The message is important but it's still shaming women imo. It was the trend back then, so I'm not judging, but she really dissed all those girls, calling them stupid, making fun of what they were doing. If back then, it was not offensive because young girls surely needed models that were not Paris, Lindsey or Britney, now, knowing what some of them have been through, it's fair to say that the song was insensitive. It's like when we watch old clips from American TV shows, making fun of them. The whole industry was really messed up, the gossip magazines, the paps... everyone was part of the problem. So it's good, imo, to come back to this music video to see how everything has changed and to accept that this song, today, was part of the problem too.
I love that you felt the need to explain a 15 year old song with 96 million views before you...
Why wouldn't you judge women if they do stupid things for attention? I find it reasonable to be told when i'm doing something stupid. Political correctness isn't helping anyone. It just enables insecurity and insecurity leads to being hurt( by yourself or men).
@@LittleME663 perfectly said-- thank you
She still ate with this song idc
I really liked how she added the "stupid girls" picking the chihuahuas out of tiny cages from a store as if they were an accessory. This was actually a huge problem back in the early 2000s. Girls wanted to be like Paris so they got the little dogs. They quickly learned they weren't an accessory and a real dog that needed love and care and so many were disregarded and put into shelters.
The Paris Hilton shade is unreal lmaooooooo
Sad thing is is that today compared to some instagram models paris is considered a prude. Think about that for a second. We have gone lower than Paris hilton, the blondest blonde of all time.
I love Paris she's changed a lot surprisingly.
@@sominboy2757 it's funny because yall are all saying be yourself and be nice and all this fake bullshit that you dont really believe in cause all of yall are judging, criticizing, and talking about the "Instagram models". Does whatever they do make them bad people? Does it make them any less human? What does anyone in this comment section get from this? Will it change the people you're talking about? And what's wrong with paris Hilton? Is it because she's rich and she knows it? Shes pretty and expresses it? She likes to dress up? Who is she hurting? Is it wrong? And all the other women or men you all are judging what about them?
I was thinking that!
Pangea Dei nah, you’re just ashamed of yourself and insecure and projecting it on confident girls who are doing better than you
I love how Pink pokes fun at all the girls who are "famous for nothing".
Cough cough Kardashians!
kadarshians are shook
Kardashians are the example
I made a comment here 2 yrs ago. & I didn't even want to read it. The only excuse I wanna pull out my ass is that I just hope I was tired. Whoever made up feminism needs to just no. Feminism is just being a female. Really, that's gotta be the literal definition. No, I didn't Google it. Now, it just seems like a way to divide genders & even put females against females. All I know is I don't have the muscles or testoron guys have. & I don't go out of my way to bash other females.
Oh yeah, I feel like this video is just hipercritical. Even tho the intent was to empower females... You can't really do it by bashing the other ones. Also, she's done a lot of the same things other females have done. It really just looks like she's doing a parody of herself, ironically.
What ever happened to girl president? ...She's dancing in the video next to 50 ¢... 🙋 Me but not really. But sort of
So it means you hate models too right? They’re famous only for their natural appearance. But you seem to admire great looking women still..... hmmmm
This song besides being very good is almost a prophecy.
P!nk was already predicting what our modern society would transform with Instagram, Onlyfans and TikTok.
be your self.. be happy
If P!nk put this out now, she would be bashed.
Rightfully so, but she definitely doesn’t have the same views she did then now
@@barblenatortwt4971 rightfully so? I'm pretty far left and now these days SJWs and fake woke people will bash anything they want because they feel like it.
@@sergior8992 Anyone who runs around referring to 'SJWs' isn't 'pretty far left' lmao
Yeah, she probably would be. I used to love this song but it just comes across as mean-spirited now that I've grown up and know better. This song doesn't even describe girls being dumb, it just describes girls wanting to look sexy, and there's nothing wrong with girls like that. They certainly aren't inherently dumb.
@@aarishowton8037 Theres a difference between people who want actual social justice and social progress and there's those who will get butthurt because they have too much time on their hands and a stick up their butt. P!NK has such a good message in this video and people immediately zoom in on non-existent issues in the video.
The little girl in the video is so adorable awww. Pink is so cool, we need more artists like her
Crabby Patty yeahh i cant stop looking at her
She's P!nk's daughter.

Oof

Lmao
This woman was my role model growing up, i discovered her music when i was 11, no one understood why i looked up to her. She made me feel confident enough to be comfortable with being an outsider. I am who I am because when everyone was pushing me to be a normal, feminine girl, she made me feel comfortable being a tomboy. When i hated myself for not being able to fit in with the other girls, when i got bullied at school, when my mother couldn't accept me being gay, her music made me feel like i wasn't alone, her music gave me strength. I'm 23 now, I still look up to her and I still love her music. I have so much respect for this Woman.
Same. Amen
Feel you ❤
Same here. I was a tomboy and was bullied in school by the pretty, feminine, popular girls. People like pink were so necessary.
BIG MOOD
Sameee♥️♥️
I’m listening to this at 36, and realizing how much it helped me stay real and independent in my younger years. Thank you PINK! We need to bring this song back. Girls younger and younger are wearing makeup and getting Botox because it’s marketed toward them.
You know what sucks? I always understood the meaning of this song and agreed wholeheartedly with the message… but when this song came out I was heavily suffering from body image and eating disorders. I got the idea to use a toothbrush from this video. Happy to not be purging today like I was then, but what a realization to come to while rewatching this in 2024.
This is 10 years old and still relevant.
This song is timeless.
That's so true I well aways love this song😊
+simona more than ever!
+simona so true its worse now then it was when it came out
true
Reminds me of this quote:
"Unfollow IG models and influencers. Start following artists and designers. Your entire outlook on life will change. You will be reminded less of your insecurities. You will be reminded more of what you love about what humans are capable of creating."
Idk about designers, but artists can feel insecure about other artist's work. When compared with that other artist, they put themselves down.
Truth. I follow doctors, nurses, moms, other inspirational people. Being a Millennial, I've seen the rise & fall of celebrities & influencers. It's so important to be level headed & not fall in the trap of false realities. Social media allows you to control what people see.
I am studying architecture and nothing makes me more insecure than following other architecture students/ young architects.
@@AlissaSommerregen same honestly but with photography for me
I agree but Maybe not have social media at all and know your worth what your capable of period is a way to go all I got is CZcams and Pinterest haven’t had Facebook in over a year, instagram, stop using Snapchat 3 months ago you actually see life without these social media stuff.
i’m 30 now and this is too on point
in fact it’s iconic
It's nice to come back after all these years and listen to this song again. Back when I was a kid, I loved the song because it sounded nice and the music video was funny, but being non-English speaker, I didn't understand a single word.
Now I get to enjoy not only the music, but the meaning of the lyrics too 😊
This song didn't predicted anything, it has always been like that.
Finally someone who isnt stupid in the comment section 😂

"woman bad"
Unlike some other artists these days, Pink is an inspiration to all young girls!
2024 Anybody
I'm so glad I grew up as p!nk as my idol. She's a lot better than most female artist nowadays.
Kaarina Polly so true
SOOOO true even though I'm 14 but still!
Kaarina Polly yeah I was actually thinking the exact same thing.
Flower Power2 yes...ofcourse she s like the other girls
i think pink is an excelent role model but if a girl is a "stupid girl" then isn't she allowed to live it that way?. although you could also say tha women are conditioned to be "stupid girls". not on purpose but you don't have to look hard to find the differences in the toys directed at boys and girls of a young age and maybe we should make an effort to incourage children to be who they feel they are regardless of the media.
y’all are completing missing the meaning of the song. she’s saying you don’t have to dumb yourself down to get people to love you. it’s not being misogynistic.
fr people are saying it’s a bad song. But if it’s cardi B shaking her ass, apparently it’s empowering LOL
@@arcane1282 THAT part💀
@@arcane1282 now this comment, is misogynistic. leave her alone lol
The same girls who used to bully girls like pink are now using words like misogyny to put the same girls down as adults. They didn't grow up they used different language to to do the same as they did in high school. I wouldn't worry too much about it.
We really did condemn femininity as stupid or bad back then, huh?
One of the hand full artists that I've always admire. Her work on every album is a masterpiece, thank you Pink for inspiring us and for all your hard work. we do love you !
Let’s not ruin this song too. Fuck the sensitivity in 2023. This song was amazing and STILL IS.
the song has a good message, sure. the music video does not. its literally making fun of people with bulimia, and has victims of sex abuse in it as well.
@@mizzysparrots4874 omg sensitiveeeee. No it doesn't. Go back and listen to the lyrics and look at the video again.
2024 Anyone.
F this girly catty sh... I'm going back over to channel my inner masculinity... Chick ...ity check urself 🎵
“Outcast, girls with ambition. That’s what I wanna see.” Anybody else?
Kathy Schiebel well girls usually reject honest and sensitive guys over the typical muscular asshole so y’all ain’t any better.
Kathy Schiebel the problem with your statement is that it has nothing to do with guys, that’s the point
shut up fool!!
@Kathy Schiebel I saaaiiidd shut up fool. " )) I love it on here because you ALL have NO IDEA how life truly works. Girls, jobs, money, family...its funny how religions, education system, medical industry, governments, social medias etc....have all dumb everybody down to their insecurity levels. Its nothing to do with being nice respectful wealthy looks or any of that bullshit. You can walk in a room say nothing and attract everyone in there. ITS CALLED VIBRATION AND ENERGY OF LOVE> Check that everyday and you attract all good things....hhmmm yes including girls/women. But if youre an ashole, you attract the asholes of the world hmm yes, including girls. Your world mirrors back to you what you are projecting out with your energy and vibration. So just enjoy and have fun, dont take shit too seriously or you'll get cancer, or hmmm yes girls too.
@Kathy Schiebel Oh and btw.....winning the approval of any girl/woman is like locking yourself in an underwater prison full of hungry angry sharks and swallowing the key. Men have figured out that you must find love for self first, THEN you will know you dont need a girl or woman after all. So get over yourself and do it NOW!!!
Its like pink was seeing into the future. 😂
It's even more relevant now.
Oh come one. She didn't see the future. Stupidity was also a problem back then...
2024 Anyone.
this song fits for any year x)
P!nk is a literal athletic & vocal *savant/savage.* seen her in concert myself. Was blown away
2023💫
Im 12, and these girls at my school started bullying me, because im a tomboy. They called me a lesbian and stuff, so i ignored them and i played them this song today😂
that's awesome, girl!
+april jones Stay who you are, and those comments will be irrelevant :) ♥♥
+april jones "They called me a lesbian". You are acting exactly the way they do. "Lesbian" is not an derogatory word. Get yourself some education.
+David Lara wtf you need education she's simply stating what THEY said
Stay strong
like others have stated, this was pre-body positivity, no fat shaming, etc. time. those in the comments bashing probably aren't old enough to remember or weren't even born during this period in time. while watching the video i can literally see the references she is making (jessica in the daisy duke's washing the car, paris in her "home" video, etc).
I think this video is still viable today because people are so sensitive. I’ve also seen people in the comments changing the meaning because they think that the point of view on society now is the same as then, and it wasn’t. Times have changed and the meaning of some words and actions have changed but at the time this was meant to be a slap in the face to the stupid girls. Most people need to remember the context of when this was posted. The only women who were famous at the time were indeed these ‘stupid girls’ so she’s just trying to prove that you don’t need to dumb yourself down to do well and be a good person.
I'm sorry your favorite song has aged like milk. Sincerely, an oversensitive snowflake who was 13 when this was popular and thought it was the pinnacle of social commentary.
I think the issue is that from that perspectiv it was of course "revolutionary" at the time. But it didn't age well because there was a bigger reason why this was even a thing. Most women who became stars only were able to do so by sedually objectifying themselves (P!nk included!!!) and while that is what people wanted to see, there was the double standard that women were shamed for using their sexuality so they were already perceived as dumb to begin with. Since they were not for real dumb they at least played their cards as there was no winning anyway and ended up giving the people what they wanted and monetized that.
And of course adding Paris' sextape is now again super screwed up cause we all know she was a victim of something horrific while it was yet not even illegal to do publicize revenge porn back in the day (see documentary of Hunter Moore) and the women again were ridiculed and portrayed as used up and nasty and STUPID for daring to ever videotape or take pictures of themselves like that.
So from todays pov it's just showing how misogynistic the world has been. She was pointing out the problem but it comes off as putting the blame on them and shaming them, when for real they just went a different route than her to deal with the worlds misogyny.
This was during a time when it was completelx acceptable to touch a female stars boobs in an interview asking if they were real, calling people scellettons or fat and asking underage stars wether they were still virgins when they should be interviewed about their careers.
I really am still shocked to think about how screwed up it was to grow up with the media of that time as a women
people should be shamed for being over weight.
EPIC AND ICONIC TUNE with an absolutely hysterical video.
Pink was always so spot-on about everything. If you're triggered by her social commentary in this video, you've never acknowledged toxic femininity. Pink can be a feminist and still make valid criticisms.
P!nk predicted the future
LOL Yes we could have our first female president because this election seems to be an even race
Bruh yes
Totally.
This song was so empowering as a young girl. The world wouldn’t be the same without Pink. She changed the game and brought women to where they are today.
How about the little girls who were actually hyper feminine and thought they were stupid?
@ramcurequeeny I didn’t make it seem like there are only hyper feminine girls and the truth is most girls are well in between hyper feminine and tomboyish. I mean that there are girl who are shamed by society for liking girly things and this song isn’t helping.
@@baconhair-gacha2208 Omg who the hell cares. You people need to shut the hell up about how offended you are by everything. No one gives a shit how the song made you feel. Go listen to something else. There's plenty of songs out there for super feminine girly girls. At this point you're all complaining just for the sake of complaining. This song is 15 years old. Talking about "there are girls shamed by society because of things like this" 🙄🤦♀️ you're ridiculous.
@ramcurequeeny tomboy here. Sure, people have been rude to me. But that doesn’t make it okay to hate on a girl for being very feminine. That isn’t okay either
haha opposite for me. i decided it’s dumb to think you cant be both hot and smart :)
After reading so many comments, I must say I'm not surprise that many didn't got the REAL message of the song. That says a lot about YOU than what P!nk is ACTUALLY referencing to in the LYRICS and not the video.
This song HELPED so many young girls to respect themselves and have a say to be whatever they wanted to be rather than lying to themselves... and Guess What?
P!NK IS STILL A ROCKSTAR.
It's says I cut ppl down? Oh
It's 2023 and I still love this song and many more by this artist. For me it never goes out of style.
Strange place for a bot to comment 🤔
2024 Anybody
Problem with today is that so many people are triggered by the important messages because they don't want to admit that it's true.
This message is so good and we need more. I have always loved how P!nk stood up to the haters and told the truth. If you wanna be a girly girl, she's not saying to not do that, it's when you start doing different things to be pretty and to attract guys' attention. Just be yourself, strong and independent.
Don't dress, act or look a certain way for other people
I know right!!! This is exactly what I think. Thank you 👏👏
well society sucks
I always loved her too for that! And I know this song isn't about making fun of people who need help woth eating disorders, it was to show the fault in their disorder and stating the truth! Couldn't agree with you more!
agreed!!!
YAS same girl✊🏼🙌🏻,ima tomboy mostly but there isn’t anything wrong with being girly.she is just trying to say to like you said not to make stupid decisions just to impress others or make others jealous.
This video is hilarious. I feel like it would never be made today, too controversial for contemporary sensibilities.
A song like that was already made. Look up hard out here by lily Alan.
Actually this clip is very relevant and exactly what today's debates are covering
When she was climbing on the car like Jessica Simpson from "These boots were made for walkin" I fucking died.
Toot again daddy
nickkingofearth that's why I'm still listening to it in 2018...cause it helps lol
We really had the best soundtrack growing up!! Middle school days!!!
Pink never disappoints, plain and simple
the song/video was about Jessica simpson, Nicole richie, Paris Hilton, & Lindsay lohan. If you weren't paying attention to pop culture back then many things in the video probably went over your head. At the time Lindsay lohan was running people over constantly, Nicole richie had lost a shit ton of weight and was crazy skinny, Jessica simpson did the these boots are made for walking video and she wears a bikini and washes a car in a sexual manner, and paris Hilton was famous for her sex tape blowing up, pink references all these things here. It had nothing to do with the kardashians or instagram models or influencer culture. They weren't a thing in 2006
You’re correct they weren’t but the message is still relevant to today’s society
Hell, I remember all that and I agree it's still relevant to today, HOWEVER, I think it's much, much worse these days than what it was back then.
100% still relevant today. I remember having my tween daughter's watch this video years ago while encouraging them to be themselves and NEVER dumb it down to impress ANYONE.
Also Jennifer lopez who was driving 😂
@@owlthereader7721 that wasn't meant to be JLO that was Lindsay Lohan, hence red hair.
People fail to realize that this song doesn't mock pretty and/or blond women who like doing their make up and dressing up. This song mocks egoistic and shallow women who equate ditziness w/ sexiness and have no goals in life.
Shallowness and prettiness go along pretty well.
+ bulimic people 🤗
So true
Zeynep Kıymet yeah, we get that, but it all gets negated when she trivialises bulimia and the end clip insinuates that choosing a football over a doll is 'smarter'.
I love Pink, but this video could have been SO much better in execution
I actually thought that she criticizes the media (and society) with this song. How women are portrayed in tv and that many women feel obligated to act like that because otherwise they’re not girly enough, not sexy enough, not desirable enough, not enough.
At the end the girl knows she supposed to play with the dolls (because society) but she has enough self-confidence to pick the football. I don’t think they wanted to insinuate that playing with dolls is bad but I agree they could’ve handled it a bit different, e.g. the girl taking both toys.
I remember being young and loving pink so much and she really encouraged me to be the woman I am today!
This song is from the 2000's, but it's so 2010's! Pink was really ahead of her time! Great!
Before some closed-minded feminist makes another comment, the video is not about being FEMININE or GIRLY, it is about females altering their body image to look pleasing in societies eyes, being thin, sexy, overly-provocative is something society promotes, P!nk is talking about the girls that are following that trend, and not being themselves.
Freckled Jegus But Pink is specifically referring to the girls who change just to impress others.
Freckled Jegus I said close-minded feminist. not feminists in general.
Exactly
Totally agree! P!nk sings about the fact that girls follow the norms and values of our society. Images they have to conform to in order to get respect and attention, for example being tan, thin,... The title of the song may not be the best decision though, because you can not only blame the girls but also society who creates these stupid norms (for example the fashion industry who promotes slenderness). People judge other people constantly and for that reasons girls follow these norms and by consequence want to be tan and thin. So maybe stupid society would have been a better choice as song title ;).
+King Avalon I agree whole heartedly with everything you just said! well put
With that orange tan you are ready to be the next president ;)
Orange rules
Ahahahahhahahahaha
Wow so profound I'm sure you could run a country on your IQ and tan alone
Donald Trump
TOP COMMENT
The top with the "in case of emergency" aerobra inflatables makes me laugh every time.
She's a GENIUS
Paris Hilton: I'm not dumb. I just ACT like I am.
P!nk: That's my point.
so basically everybody has to behave like her ? who do she thinks she is exactly ? a model for the whole planet ? president ? dictator maybe.
KN JB Triggered much???
Hahaha true.
KN JB I would take P!nk's personality on a girl than the personality of Paris Hilton's. Damn right.
They're stupid because they act stupid. They think it's cute to act helpless and useless to be more attractive to men. It's not. That's what it means.
It's not about stupid girls -
it's about stupid stereotypes and demands girls wanted to live up to because media told us how to be in order to be loved and accepted
The media didnt told weman how to look... People are sexually attacted by what they are, not by what the media says its best. Proof of this is the people who, lets say, like fat chicks. Fat isnt portrayed as the media as perfect, yet those people exist. Being attracted to other human being is a lot less shallow and you think it to be...
Eat This
So you are saying girls behave in a way they think men are attracted to?
I'm a woman and I know how much media influenced my self image. Don't tell me I'm wrong, when you haven't walked my shoes.
I never said that. TL;DR, only 3-5% of what we are sexually attracted to is media influented. I dont care how you dress, or how you make up, or why you make up. Im saying the media little to none influences what people are sexually attracted to.
No actually it’s about dumb girls lmfao
I think it's about both, these girls act like that because they are influenced by stereotypes.
I heard some people complain about this song/vid. But as a woman in my late 20s I want to say that this song reallly helped me in my teens. In the 2000s it wasn't as accepted to be an outsider as a girl. you could listen to p!nk and avril lavigne and dress up in punk, but you had to deal with beeing an outcast, and boy, you really had to be skiny ... so happy that that`s over. And I love this song.
2024 and still love this song
A lot of people fail to get the message here...
I know the message and it is great
+Arsène Devos lol ikr
i love you
Some people were not even born or too young to understand this video mocks Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Olsen twins and all the then young hollywood starlets
yes..
Apparently she tried getting 50 Cent to be part of the video but he was busy, so his cousin took his place instead.
I was gonna say lol. I kept pausing the video because the guy sorta resembled 50 Cent.
hmm maybe 50 prefers actual stupid girls...easier to handle lol
That's his cousin?! I can't tell AT ALL!!!
@@Osiwan960 wouldnt that be lame ? A girl that just goes shopping etc ?
Dont you want more from her than sex and maybe food ?
@@anja6983 you would be surprised at how many guys are intimidated by smart women...it challenges them intellectually when they just wanna chill and have a good, light fun time. It's very nice to have meaningful conversations, future planning and all sometimes but not always. If a girl is REALLY smart, she will know when to use her IQ when it matters and pretend to be just basic at the right times. ☺
it's hypocrite to call this song misogynistic, this is what feminism used to be. it may look different from what you might think about it but p!nk is telling you to be your true self. some of you forget so easily how tough it used to be being a women. she made this when all the young girls are pushed into cookie cutter by society and got punished hard when they don't want to. always a banger 10/10
There isn’t a single other artist with a better sense of humor than her I always laugh at her videos
Eminem done music videos which are similair to this
@@agentsmith9858 ironically, so did Mariah carey. The running over part
Eminem has entered the chat …
So many people don’t get the message and I live for it😭
I love this song for longer time xx
I feel nostalgic for 2006 even if I was a bit too young to remember it.
I hate how people are looking at this video and seeing it as her attacking "sluts" or "beauty". It isn't that at all. She's showing how we've got our priorities all fucked up by focusing on what society deems outer beauty. It's how we're dumbing ourselves to be loved and for attention. How we no longer value independence, difference and intelligence. She isn't mocking women who dress provocative, she's pointing out that the media makes us believe that's what we NEED to do and it's pretty stupid of us to follow.
Thank you. EXACTLY! That's the point. :)
damn right and it bugs me that no one is comentating like "wow awesome song "fuck dont comment than :))
Daz the shit I'm talking about
Yes, we do not NEED cosmetics to look PERFECT, because no one is. Everyone is unique, and the media needs to respect that, instead of writing stupid articles on a mag about the THIGH-GAP! What the F**k!
Tinka SGupta Thigh gap? is that the space between your legs??? What is it supposed to be, the space, I'm jk thats funny ha ha ha lol WTF is right!!!!
Instagram models while watching this video: 👁👄👁
Thank you Pink. This song was released when us ladies REALLY needed it. Horrid times looking back. You changed everything for us.
This song made more for my mental health than my own mother (who presured me into an ED and made my worth as a human depend on being attractive to men).
Growing up in the late 90s , early 00s was insane
I love Pink's freedom!! I love thattt
This song snapped me back from bulimia. It showed me how stupid and harmful it is. It became my anthem for recovery and self acceptance. I thank P!nk❤
Omg i’m so proud of u!!! love you
now i realise i said love you to a stranger but oh well
@@hotchickforvic don't feel weird for that! That was so kind of you, and the world needs more of what you did: loving others simply because we're all just humans attempting to better ourselves and this world. You are loved back!! ❤
Hope your recovery is going well.
@@hotchickforvic thank you! I love you too
I grew up listening to Pink and she’s still killing it. I bet she’s a Kickass mom. An still one of my favorite artists from the 00’s. A plus. You go Girl.
Lies again? Hello SGD
I totally agree Pink is great and this song sends a message for young girls out there and they don't have be like Paris Hilton and Be Smart Strong and Successful and I know that Pink was angry at Miley Cryus and so was Cher b/c of her Twerking on the MTV awards when she was dancing around Robin Thicke.
HELL YEAH🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💛🧡💛🧡💛🧡💛🧡🌠🌠🌠!!!!!!!
2023.
This song was before it’s time 😩
What a masterpiece, and how good it's aging!
True fact; the guy playing 50 Cent in this video is actually the real 50 Cent's cousin!
Applause Person No, I saw the Making Of video where Pink confirmed it was actually his cousin who agreed to do it - I think because the real 50 Cent wasn't available to or something.
Medieaval Beabe
you mean it?😱
I used to think he was the real 50Cent 🤣
@@justinemillionaires8829 Yeah.
