What is 'I Coined It'?

'I Coined It' is the title of Janice Dickinson's debut single, released in May 2022, and her debut EP, released December 31, 2023.

Did Janice Dickinson coin the term 'supermodel'?

Janice Dickinson has frequently claimed to have coined the term 'supermodel,' and it has become a signature part of her public identity. She has recounted the origin in slightly different versions over the years — most often dating the exchange to either 1979 or 1982 — but the core anecdote is consistent: her manager remarked that she was 'not Superman,' to which Janice replied, 'I am not Superman, I am a supermodel.' The word 'supermodel' predates this claim, but Dickinson's version of events is closely associated with her brand and is the inspiration for her 2022 single and 2023 EP, both titled 'I Coined It.'
