PopUps: 'Broad City' Stars Discover a Town Called Yass
Yaass kween!
That's what Abbi Jacobson and Ilana Glazer, the stars of Comedy Central's "Broad City," are screaming after learning there is a town in New South Wales, Australia, called Yass.
On Thursday, the women took to their "Broad City" Facebook to notify their fans there's a town of about 5,000 called Yass. Jacobson and Glazer popularized the phrase "yaass queen" on their hit show.
The official tourism Facebook page for New South Wales commented on the post, writing, "YASS QUEEN, you found us! This beautiful historic country town is just 3 hours south-west from Sydney in #NewSouthWales, Australia. Abbi and Ilana would love wining and dining through the town."
The phrase became a meme after a video of a Lady Gaga fan praising the singer went viral. It has since evolved online and peaked when it was used on "Broad City." Read a brief history of "yas queen" via Bustle and check out the Gaga clip and the "Broad City" clip below.
