And a woman asked, Master, what about fandom? And he answered: You would coin a name for your disciples. A true star must have pet names for her fans, as a frat boy has nicknames for his dipper.

Pop the hood for the most ridiculous celebrity fan nicknames.

Artist: Wiz Khalifa

Fan Nickname(s): Taylors, Taylor Gang

Wiz Khalifa fans are nicknamed Taylors after his fondness for Chuck Taylors. Good thing he's not obsessed with Louboutins.

Artist: Katy Perry

Fan Nickname: KatyCats

Do you own a whipped-cream bra? Have you ever considered inking Katy Perry lyrics on your person? If you answered "yes," chances are you're a bonafide KatyCat. Whatever that is. Legend has it that Perry coined the nickname during her Hello Katy tour. No word on how big a role mental exhaustion played.


Artist: Justin Bieber

Fan Nickname: Beliebers

You're neither a believer nor Justin Bieber. Lame.


Artist: Nicki Minaj

Fan Nickname: Barbz and Kens

Barbz is Nicki Minaj's nickname for women and gay men We can't think of the words that do them justice, so here, are pictures.

Notice that all of these are new artist?  I wonder if that has anything to do with stupid fans or lame artists...

But I gotta point out, you missed out the lamest/most hilarious of them all.  Clay Aiken fans call themselves "Claymates"!

I always liked the nickname Grateful Dead fans, Dead Heads.  If you've ever known any, it works on a couple of levels.

Tech N9ne has been around since 1991. He started putting out good albums solo in 2001. And it's spelled "Technicians".

Actually Katy Perry has been around for a few years now. I saw her at Warped Tour in 2008 when her first album came out.
