SisQó talks ‘Thong Song’ legacy: Victoria’s Secret sales spike, Halle Berry’s fashion inspo and the real meaning of ‘dumps like a truck’

Published On March 11, 2021 » By »

Vice’s The Story of Thong Song is a deep dive, so to speak, into the history of SisQó’s biggest hit single. We learn that the instrumental bed was inspired by a Beatles cover and originally intended for SisQó’s moonwalking idol, Michael Jackson; that MTV almost refused to play the racy music video; and that the song’s lyrics were inspired by SisQó’s mind-blowing first thong sighting when he got to “second base” on a date. But there is so much more to learn, so SisQó joined us on Zoom from his memorabilia-filled lair for a thong-themed discussion… including the exciting news that he’s finally releasing own official lingerie line.
