Hilary Duff Discovers The Word “Cheugy,” Is Concerned She Might Be Cheugy
Hilary Duff, 33, took to her Instagram Stories yesterday (May 12) to share a clip of herself with her newborn daughter Mae. In the clip, La Duff expressed her concern after learning the definition of a “new” slang term “cheugy,” fearing it just might describe the actress herself.
“Listen, guys, I’ve been stressing for days about this,” Duff said. “Ever since I heard the word? Fear overcoming my mind. Like, am I cheugy? Are you cheugy? Do you know if you re cheugy?
She continued, “Is someone who’s cheugy aware of it? Is it a big deal to be cheugy? What the fuck is going on?”

If cheugy sounds hard to define, that’s because it is. It has been likened to ‘basic’, the insult made famous by Kate Moss when she hurled it at a female Easyjet pilot in 2015 and which refers to people whose tastes are a little too obvious, generic or mainstream, and while it’s not as insulting, it’s clearly not a compliment either.
“To me, cheugy is a lazy attitude,” says Isaac Hindin-Miller, a New York-based DJ and fashion influencer who has over 61,000 followers on TikTok. “It’s living your life paint-by-numbers-style, as dictated by Instagram. It’s drinking Starbucks instead of literally anything else. It’s Santal 33 by Le Labo. It’s whatever the newest hype sneaker is. To avoid looking cheugy, develop your own personal style.”
