Bossy (Lindsay Lohan song)

"Bossy" is a song by American actress and singer-songwriter Lindsay Lohan. The song was written and produced by Shaffer Smith, known by his stage name Ne-Yo, while additional writing and production was done by Stargate members Mikkel Storleer Eriksen and Tor Erik Hermansen. After leaking online in the beginning of May 2008, Universal Motown officially released the song to media outlets, while its digital single was released on May 27, 2008. The song is influenced by electropop and dance-pop. Lyrically, it is about a woman being strong enough to get what she wants when she wants it.

Critically, "Bossy" attained generally mixed reception upon release, many music critics generally praised the attitude of the song, but considered the song less catchy than Lohan's previous efforts. Commercially, "Bossy" managed to peak at number 77 on the Canadian Hot 100, and became Lohan's first song from her entire music career, so far, to reach number one on the United States' Billboard Hot Dance Club Play.
