<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 ." 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>
