Race-Stereotyping Parodies

Todrick Hall Hilariously Recreates Mean Girls with 'Mean Gurlz'

— June 7, 2013 — Pop Culture
You don’t have to be a fan of the popular teen movie Mean Girls to appreciate how hilarious this spoof by Todrick Hall really is. This video is called 'Mean Gurlz' and it is the trailer for a movie that doesn’t exist, but should.

Todrick Hall wanted to know what it would be like if Mean Girls took place in Compton, so he made this spot on parody by using some of the most popular scenes from the 2004 film and putting a stereotypical ethnic spin on them.

This witty Todrick Hall spoof will have you literally laughing out loud. How could it not with appearances from Glee star Alex Newell, YouTube personality Antoine Dodson and Todrick Hall himself?

The best part about this parody is how quotable it is. Todrick took some phrases from the original movie and “twerked” them ever so slightly to give them different meaning.
Trend Themes
1. Parody Videos - The trend of creating parody videos of popular movies or television shows presents an opportunity for brands to collaborate with content creators and reach a wider audience.
2. Ethnic Spin on Pop Culture - The trend of adding an ethnic spin to popular movies or television shows offers an opportunity for diversity and representation in mainstream media.
3. Quotable Parody Content - The trend of creating parody content that is highly quotable presents an opportunity for brands to leverage viral phrases and create memorable marketing campaigns.
Industry Implications
1. Entertainment - The entertainment industry can tap into the trend of parody videos by producing and promoting their own parodies of popular shows or movies.
2. Advertising - The advertising industry can collaborate with content creators to incorporate ethnic spins on their campaigns in order to better connect with diverse audiences.
3. Social Media - The social media industry can leverage the trend of quotable parody content by creating platforms or features that allow users to easily discover and share viral phrases from popular parodies.
