Hot girl summer is a song by Megan Thee Stallion. It is featured on Thee Stallion’s 2007 LP, I’m the Man, which features a remix by DJ Khaled under the name “Me and the Khaled.”
Surprisingly, the phrase has been seen as an anachronism in the ’60s and 70s. As hot girl summer would have been more common in the ’50s and early ’60s than the ’70s and 80s.
The term was popularized on a radio talk show that ran on the syndicated American radio network in 1965. It featured hosts such as Johnny Carson and Bob Elliott and regular guest hosts. So that is how the phrase was used throughout the years. It is much older than you might expect, right?

Hot girl summer spirit: in conclusion
Now, you want to be a part of this movement? Here are some rules you need to follow!
Hot girl summer spirit is “It’s just basically about women — and men — just being unapologetically them,” according to Megan Thee Stallion.
“All that comes into it: The fact of you being a woman is a pretty powerful thing, and that is what we’re talking about. If you have a woman’s body part you’re wearing that isn’t attached to a man, and you’re not hitting on them — and that’s a rule that you enforce on yourself — then that is one of the many ways you say you’re a woman. It’s not ****, but it’s powerful. You don’t have to be ****.”
What does this quote mean? It means that you have to apologetically be yourself to be a part of hot girl summer.
This does not mean you have to have the perfect body OR a stunning bikini.
It is all about you, being confident, to show the world who you indeed are.
You definitely need to stop comparing yourself to unrealistic images on social media.
You have to stop feeling bad about not feeling great despite trying to do the right thing every day.
Being a hot girl summer is fun. And that is what it is all about! So go out there, and show the world what you have got!
