<P> The phrase "Bye, Felicia" (actually spelled "Felisha" in the cast listing) came from a scene in the American stoner buddy crime comedy film Friday (1995). According to Ice Cube, who starred in the film and co-wrote its script, "Bye, Felicia" is "the phrase' to get anyone out of your face'," and, as it was used in the Friday scene, is generally intended as a dismissive kiss - off . </P> <P> The saying gained popularity and continues to be used, even by people who have never seen the film . In 2009, it entered the lexicon of RuPaul's Drag Race, an American reality competition television series . However, People said "even that wouldn't necessarily account for the phrase extending beyond the cultures that would watch either Friday, Drag Race or both . (Seriously, just look how often people use it on Twitter .)" Furthermore, the magazine said of the phrase, "So when your square friend uses it, take a little bit of pleasure in knowing they're referencing a stoner comedy--or a drag reality show referencing a stoner comedy--even if they have no idea ." </P>
