Although the term "bootylicious" had already been used by rapper [[Snoop Dogg]] in [[Dr. Dre]]'s song "[[Fuck wit Dre Day (And Everybody's Celebratin')]]" (1992), the popularity of "Bootylicious" caused the slang word to become widespread, being added to the ''[[Oxford English Dictionary]]'' in 2004 under the definition "(of a woman) sexually attractive".
