Devo

Word used to describe a something that is SO bad, embarrassing, cheesy, corny and generally cringe inducing that it becomes amazingly awesome. It is so bad that a kind of grandeur creeps into it. Reference the music video for "Whip it" by the legendary band Devo to get the full concept.

William Hung's version of "She Bangs" is SO Devo!
