About

Clap Those Alien Cheeks is a slang expression that means "to have sex with an extraterrestrial." The phrase grew in popularity as part of the Storm Area 51 meme, becoming a mock reason for why everyone wanted to storm the military base.

Origin

One of the earliest jokes about "alien cheeks" was posted on December 13th, 2015. That day, Twitter [1] user @OGwi11iamS shared a joke in the explainafilmplotbadly Twitter game. They wrote of the film Avatar, "Solider betrays the human race just to get some blue alien cheeks" (shown below).
