JuggaloThe rap group ICP (Insane Clown Posse) first began to call themselves Juggalos and eventually they extended the phrase to include all of their most loyal fans. The song "What is a Juggalo" was perhaps the first attempt to actually define the term. The song is very vague and essentially describes a person who is crazy, doesn't care much about society's norms, and acts any way he pleases. "He" is used here because females are called Juggalettes. The term Juggalo comes directly from the word juggler. Juggalos consider themselves extremely loyal to ICP and have acted in irrational ways on certain occasions. When ICP's music video "Let's Go All The Way" was released on MTV, Juggalos went to the streets of New York City, en masse, to get MTV to play the video on the top 10 countdown. Observing that there were a bunch of teenagers dressed as clowns standing amongst the other fans on the street, MTV summoned the NYPD. The police removed the ICP fans, citing a New York law prohibiting "clown makeup" on the streets. Unfortunately, situations like these only make ICP fans that more rabid; they relish the attention garnered and enjoy a sense of martyrdom at the hands of critics.
