The phrase comes from Brazilian internet slang, where eae is an informal way to say hey and alienigena means alien, so the whole line works as a joking greeting aimed at aliens. Its exact first recording is not clear, but the clip spread through soundboards, short videos and chat audios because the wording is easy to remember and repeat. People keep reusing it as a nonsense opener that signals a playful tone immediately, even for listeners who do not speak Portuguese and only recognise the rhythm and attitude.
