...What's a hollaback girl?

The lyrics to that song aren't that good, but it stuck in my head. I never knew I could have such a kitsch musical taste. >.>

I assumed it was a gangsta girl who says "Holla back" a lot, but I think it's a cheerleader. That song is so awful, it's sad. xD

I always assumed it meant "Hollow Back", as in having a weak spine, as in giving in easily.

I think if your not a hollaback girl then your a skank.

Because all your interested in is one night stands. You dont want them to hollaback at you, call you back.

Is that the Gwen Stefani song?

It incorporates the word Bananas into it. Therefore, I like it.

I assumed it was someone who didn't go around shouting replies at people. Holler...back...
Still, I'm not 'down with the kids' so I wouldn't know.

Exactly ^_^ The point of the song is that she isn't someone that you can just use.

Exactly HOLLOW - BACK. Spinless. Weak willed.

a banana that's just the skin, or a cheerleader. She ain't no cheerleader coz she's the one that's been round the track, so she's been doing all the work....except she's a cheerleader in the vid.....crap, confuzzled

Oh it's good to laugh again.

I think a hollaback girl is a girl who talks smack back to the person talking smack about her. That definition makes no sense in the context of the song, but the song itself is pretty odd, so I'll go with that.
