Watch KATSEYE Get Schooled on ‘Skibidi’ & More Gen Alpha Slang on ‘Celebrity Substitute’
The girl group learns some popular terms from young kids in Billboard 's exclusive clip.
KATSEYE, the pop girl group, temporarily swapped being musicians for being teachers. They joined the digital series Celebrity Substitute ahead of releasing their upcoming EP, WILD, on August 14. In an exclusive clip, Yoonchae, Lara, Daniela, and Sophia, who is on hiatus, arrived at PS17 elementary school in Queens, New York City.
The students, not the singers, taught the celebrities about Gen Alpha slang. Grayson, a self-identified EYEKON, asked how long it takes to create a song, to which Yoonchae replied they rehearse every day for six to seven hours. When asked about "skibidi" and "sigma", Lara and Daniela responded with enthusiasm before Milo explained "brain rot" as insults and mean things to say to someone.
The group then learned that saying "brain rot" as a compliment is not possible. KATSEYE's WILD EP, featuring hits like "Pinky Up" and "Animal," drops the following day.
