Word History

Etymology

of uncertain origin

Note: The phrase on fleek originated in a posting to the video-sharing platform Vine on June 21, 2014, by Kayla Lewis, a sixteen-year-old girl with the user name Peaches Monroee. In later interviews Ms. Lewis said that she had made up the word fleek on the spot when the video was shot. However, it has been reported that fleek appeared prior to 2014 on the Urban Dictionary website: in 2003 a contributor defined fleek as "smooth, nice, sweet," with the example sentence "That was a fleek move you pulled on that chic[k]." Another contributor entered the word in 2009, defining fleek as "awesome," as in "That was a fleek game." For background see "How 'on fleek' went from a 16-year-old's Vine to the Denny's Twitter account," by Constance Grady, posted on the website Vox on March 28, 2017; and "Geeking Out On 'Fleek,'" by Neal Whitman, posted on visualthesaurus.com on February 23, 2015.
