Spuds may have been famous, but the Spudettes had a fanbase of their own. Budweiser knew their target market and hired models and aspiring actresses to follow Spuds around and speak for him. Sir Mix-A-Lot, however, wasn’t a fan of the dog’s entourage.

The image of the Spudettes upset the rapper so much he wrote “Baby Got Back” as a response. He said the girls were, “little skinny chicks looking like stop signs, with big hair and skinny bodies.” If you don’t know, you can probably guess what his ode to the female body was about.
