JAP Culture at University of Michigan


This music video was created by University of Michigan students and was meant to humorously highlight JAP (Jewish American Princess) culture. Urban Dictionary quotes that the "Jewish American Princess [is] a bitchy, spoiled, gold digging Jewish female raised in a wealthy household..." The video features this rich, snobby culture by referring to brand name clothing, weekly brunches, ray bans, north face, uggs, exotic spring breaks, blackberry phones, fro yo, golfing in Boca Raton, using a laundry service, little dogs, expensive cars, tans, and in the end throwing money in the air. This stereotype of Jews being rich and flashy is just one of the many I will be exploring in my essay.
