Pop culture

The term "Apple Bottoms Jeans" refers to a woman whose curvaceous figure is elegantly revealed by her tight-fitting jeans, resembling the shape of an apple. The term is referenced in various rap or hiphop songs, including Twista's Overnight Celebrity, MC Jin's 36-24-36 (Applebottom Jeans), DaCav5's Tetris, and Flo Rida's Low. The term is also used in the songs "Tip Drill" and "Paradise" by Nelly, in the Eminem single Shake That, and "Lee Majors Come Again" by the Beastie Boys. Canadian Desi producer DJ Sanj has a song of that title on the 2010 album American Desi.

In 2004, Oprah appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show wearing a pair of Apple Bottoms jeans and included them in her annual "Oprah's Favorite Things" list.
