Wheatus

  • Fan Nickname: Brendan B. Brown is commonly referred to as "BBB" by fans.
  • Germans Love David Hasselhoff: Wheatus' biggest hit, "Teenage Dirtbag", was far more popular in Australia and the UK (reaching #1 and #2 in the music charts, respectively) than in their native US. Two of their other singles made it to the top 40 in the latter. Their self-titled album also received a platinum certificate there, the only time the band got any certificate for one of their studio albums.
  • Narm: In the middle of the profanity-laced "Punk Ass Bitch", there's the lyric "It's just a testimony/that you're full of bologna". The use of a childish Inherently Funny Word is unintentionally hilarious.
  • Signature Song: "Teenage Dirtbag", being their only song to do well on the charts.
