Migos' "Bad And Boujee" has taken over the internet and the world. Since the track was dropped in October 2016, fans of the group were immediately hooked on it. But, Donald Glover's shoutout of the song at the 2017 Golden Globes only took things to a whole new level.

Since then, "Bad And Boujee" peaked at number one on the Hot 100 charts -- giving the group and Metro Boomin their first song in the position -- and Migos has even performed for the first time on "Jimmy Kimmel Live." The sky seems to be the limit for these guys.

Hearing the song now more than ever, we can't stop thinking about who it's based on. So, we've taken the liberty of compiling some of our favorite "Bad And Boujee" women from our favorite TV shows, who fit the song's description to a T.
