The Gomlich effect is used to describe the consequences of a girl screaming in cheer, particularly for a boyband.
The term was coined in 2000 by fictional character "Chef" in Comedy Central's South Park when consulting Eric Cartman on how to make his boyband Fingerbang popular.
According to Chef, "The Gomlich effect is the law of physics which states that if one girl screams for something, it will make other girls scream, and it will grow exponentially until all girls within a five-mile radius are screaming."

Effect where when 3 or more women are located in a bar, pub etc scene together, they appear together as a good looking bunch, but when viewed individually, are actually unattractive. Thought to only be in effect with groups of women, but actually in effect with both sexes.
cheerleader effect where altogether the cheerleading team looks attractive but on closer inspection is quite ugly, the spice girls, the group of women who dance in a circle at the bar-usually with a pile of purses in the middle, occurs at any canadian fraternity common room where all together the men look hot but when checked out are actually bunk ass.

The exponential effect of communicating a focused message through many different forms of advertising media with a very persuasive effect on beliefs and behavior.
The advertising campaign was communicated through a microsite, social media venues, viral video, print, grassroots events and out of home media. The Piranha Effect was amazing.
