7	3OH!3 (pronounced "three oh three") is an American electronic music duo from Boulder, Colorado, made up of Sean Foreman and Nathaniel Motte. They are best known for hit singles such as "Don't Trust Me," a remix of "Starstrukk" featuring Music/KatyPerry, and "My First Kiss" featuring Music/{{Kesha}}.

9	3OH!3 were regarded as poster boys for {{crunkcore}} (also known as "scrunk"), despite not actually being particularly crunk or core, as noted on Website/ThisVeryWiki. Warped Tour co-creator and CEO Kevin Lyman described the group as "the real tipping point for scrunk" in 2009, noting that, although they doesn't incorporate the blood-curdling screams of many crunkcore acts, they were the first emo-influenced act to depart from traditional instruments in favor of pre-programmed beats while still retaining many of the stylistic elements of emo.

21	* BigGuyLittleGuy: {{Averted\|Trope}}. Motte is [[invoked]][[CommonKnowledge widely known]] as "the tall guy," but Foreman is actually ''6′ 2″''. Motte just happens to be ''even taller'' at 6′ 7″.
22	* ChickMagnet: Parodied in the music video for "Starstrukk" ft. Music/KatyPerry. Women start frantically chasing after Motte and Foreman after they pick up coins from a wishing fountain. [[DudeMagnet Gender-inverted with Perry as well]]. It all turns out to be a FantasySequence, however.
23	* LifeOfTheParty: They were best known for their "drunk frat boy" party animal image.
24	* MouthScreen: "My First Kiss" makes use of several of these shots throughout the video, a lot of which focus on Ke$ha. At the end of the video, the camera pans out to reveal that [[spoiler: the members of 3Oh!3 are inside Ke$ha's mouth.]] She then [[spoiler: slams her mouth shut and [[LiteralManeater eats them]] before smooching at the camera.]]
25	* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: The leading lady of "You're Gonna Love This," whom Foreman and Motte are fighting over, winds up [[spoiler:leaving the bar with an {{Expy}} of Creator/TomCruise]].
26	* SexinessScore: The subject from "Hit It Again" is said to be an "[[BrokeTheRatingScale eleven out of ten]]".

28	You could pull it like a hand grenade
29	* SignatureStyle: Incredibly brash electronic beats and incredibly brash lyrics paired with incredibly brash vocals (though, as previously noted, actually not quite screaming). [[NewSoundAlbum All aspects grew mellower over the years]], in their music following their peak of fame.
