"Apple Shampoo" is a single by Blink-182, from the 1997 album Dude Ranch. The song is about a girl Mark Hoppus used to know. In a 1998 interview given while on tour with The Aquabats, Mark revealed that she was one of the girls from Dance Hall Crashers. The title refers to the smell of the shampoo she used.

The song appeared on Twitter as a trending topic in May 2009. Hoppus asked his Twitter followers, "Apple shampoo or Josie?", referring to songs by the band.[1] The obscurity of the phrase generated Tweeted responses from Twitterers unaware of Hoppus's Tweet, creating a feedback loop and raising the phrase's visibility in the community further.
