Milkshake was released by American singer Kelis in 2003 as the lead single from her third album, Tasty, with production by The Neptunes. Its suggestive chorus and stripped-back, futuristic beat made it an instant pop hit and a lasting reference in music and internet culture. As short-form video grew, the hook became a shorthand for confidence, flirtation and playful bragging, often paired with transformations, dances and comedic reveals. Its instantly recognisable rhythm keeps it useful long after its chart run ended.

The opening of Kelis's 2003 hit Milkshake, with its synth hook and cheeky chorus. Creators use it for confident, flirty or funny moments in videos and memes.
The clip captures the instantly recognisable start of Kelis's Milkshake, built around a bouncy, minimal synth riff and a confident vocal delivery that feels both playful and provocative. The beat is sparse and hypnotic, leaving plenty of space for the hook to land, while the rhythm makes it easy to cut to, dance to or lip-sync. Hearing just a few seconds is enough to trigger recognition, laughter or a knowing smile, which is why it works so well as a punchline, a reveal or a confident entrance in short-form video.
