Put will.i.am's trendy phrase in your pocket

I've just been watching clips from The Voice UK and had to share this classic quote 'cos I'm sure it'll blow you hair back too ...

As I mentioned last week, the series premiered in the UK recently with coaches: Tom Jones, Jessie J, Danny O'Donoghue and will.i.am - who has such a wickid way with words he doesn't even need to say anything to leave me guffawing.

My latest fave quip happened while he was watching a Battle Round performance, wearing this expression:

When asked what he thought of the performance, he said:

"Man ... lemme tell you something ... my eyebrows were so far back I had to pull them out of my back pocket to put them back on my head."

As he slapped them back on his head.

Ha! I've packed the saying in my back pocket to pull out when I feel the same. Not that I know exactly how he feels - I thought the performance was terrible but he didn't let on how he felt - that's all he said so he might have felt it was rad. The ambiguity makes it even cooler.

PS: His quip's should be known as "Will'isms" don't you think? I'm just not sure if the term should be written with a capital letter or not.

Catchy. But you'd rather put them back on your face not head.
