Britney Spears was a passenger princess before it was cool.
A “passenger princess” refers to a term that originated on the internet and gained popularity on platforms like Twitter and TikTok. It is often used to describe a woman who is frequently driven around by her significant other while she sits in the passenger seat of the car. The term gained virality in April 2022 and experienced a resurgence in early 2023.
On TikTok, the trend of “passenger princesses” became popular, with videos showcasing individuals, mainly women, highlighting their duties and experiences while being the passenger princess. These duties may include controlling the music, adjusting the air conditioning, giving directions, and even being responsible for snacks. In some cases, the roles are reversed, and the driver becomes the passenger princess.
The term “passenger princess” can also be found on Urban Dictionary, where it is described as a pretty girl who relies on others to drive her around and has no intentions of learning how to drive herself.
