Apparently, “The Baddest Bi—es Are in LA.”
Hot Topic’s exclusive Prima collection playfully turns ADÉLA’s “Ain’t in LA” lyric, “the baddest bi—es ain’t in LA,” into a declaration of hometown pride. City-specific T-shirts assert that there are, in fact, baddies in Los Angeles, Dallas, Seattle, Nashville, Washington, D.C. and New York, nodding to the sold-out shows in these cities and the devoted fans who filled them. Two additional graphic tees and a collection of stickers featuring Prima album artwork round out the merch lineup, giving ADÉLA’s fans more ways to show their allegiance.

ADÉLA has dominated the cultural conversation this year with “Nicole Kidman,” a sultry earworm soundtracking millions of TikTok videos, Victoria’s Secret’s 2026 fashion show and celebrity lip-syncs, including one featuring Kristen Wiig, Pedro Pascal and Dua Lipa, who cheekily pans the camera toward a kiss-blowing Kidman. Both “Nicole Kidman” and “Ain’t in LA” landed on the Billboard Hot 100, while Prima debuted at No. 1 on two Billboard album charts. Yet “Ain’t in LA” offers more than a catchy song. Its music video is an insight into Adéla’s Slovakian culture and the DIY social scene of working-class youth. From “subwoofers in the trunk” to “Honda Civic doin’ donuts in the rain,” the imagery is one where just hanging out is the main event, worlds away from the glossy, otherworldly life in Los Angeles.
