Slutdrop[edit]

  • ... that reality TV stars from the program Geordie Shore are credited with naming the dance move slutdrop?

  • Fits all criteria, but the source given does not actually support the fact, but rather implies that the term was used on Geordie Shore but originates from the north-east. --Gilderien Chat|List of good deeds 21:43, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Hmm, reference No.3 does only state it is "north-east lingo", but reference No. 4 specifically says that slutdrop was "patented" by Geordie Shore. I've reworded the article accordingly. If that's still frowned upon, how about the alternate hook: ALT1 ... that the origins of the dance move slutdrop can be traced back to music videos such as Dirrty by Christina Aguilera? Now that I've come up with it I actually prefer this second hook now anyway. Freikorp (talk) 23:35, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
