Kewl Chix

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kewl Chix is a recurring comic strip in the British adult humour magazine Viz.

Kewl Chix stars a number of "kewl chix", i.e. teenage girls obsessed with their social life, both in real life and on the Internet. Early strips portrayed them as stereotypical bimbo/dumb blonde caricatures, but have now developed to show their fixation with celebrity gossip, social network services and text messaging.

They are constantly calling each other on their mobile phones or sending e-mail to each other. The girls talk in blatantly stereotypical "ditzy" language, for example: "Hieee Vix! Check your MySpace babe. I've like, soooo sent you a message!". All the girls' names end in "x" (Bex, Vix and so on.) They appear to be incapable of communicating without the use of a computer or mobile phone, portrayed in a recent strip as unable to use a pencil or take a book out of the library in order to finish a school project.

The girls only seem to be interested in their friendship with each other. None of them has been seen pursuing a romantic friendship with a boy (or another girl).
