About Felisha
Felisha is a character from the comedy film Friday. Felisha is known as a mooch and a drug abuser. Through her character, the term “Bye, Felicia” was actually popularized which is often used to dismiss someone who does not matter (or if you want someone to get out of your way). Though her name is spelled as Felisha in the billing, the spelling “Felicia” with a CI was a also widely used.
In the movie “Friday,” Felisha, also spelled as Felisha or Felicia, is a minor character known for the famous catchphrase “Bye, Felisha.” The film, released in 1995, is a comedy written by Ice Cube and DJ Pooh, directed by F. Gary Gray, and stars Ice Cube and Chris Tucker in the lead roles.
Felisha is portrayed by actress Angela Means. In the movie, she is the annoying and bothersome neighbor of Craig (played by Ice Cube) and his best friend Smokey (played by Chris Tucker). Felisha constantly intrudes on their daily activities and asks to borrow various items, annoying the two friends with her presence.
The catchphrase “Bye, Felisha” became widely popular and entered popular culture as a dismissive response to someone annoying or irrelevant. It is often used humorously to politely decline a request or to brush off an unwanted person.
Despite having limited screen time, Felisha’s character has left a lasting impact due to the catchphrase’s widespread use in internet memes, social media, and everyday conversations. The line has become a humorous way to say “goodbye” or “see you later” while also expressing mild irritation or indifference towards the person being addressed.
