Kelis’ “Milkshake” has not only brought all the boys to the yard, but it also made it easier to enjoy the National Scripps Spelling Bee.

According to reports, a judge used the 2003 hit song during the competition, which came down to its last two contestants. When asked by the contestant to use a word in a sentence, the judge, Dr. Jacques Bailly, said: “Tabitha discovered that while her milkshake brought all the boys to the yard … oh boy, wrong sentence.”

Although the reference caused the audience the audience to laugh, the contestant, Sriram Hathwar, who was 3 when “Milkshake” came out, probably had no idea what the judge was talking about.

Overall, Hathwar came out just fine as he ended up sharing the championship after an intense spell-off with his opponent.
