I always thought
30 Rock invented the word
vajayjay -- turns out it was
Grey's Anatomy. And Oprah pretty much owns it. This and
other scintillating details about the origin of the word in today's
NYT Styles. (UPDATE: In the comments, at least one previous use of the world. I hope the OED references this post.)
I'm sure this term has been even longer. The first time I heard it was in an MC Paul Barman song "MTV get off the air pt.2" from his 2000 EP It's Very Stimulating, in which he trades retardedly brilliant sex rhymes with Princess Superstar.
Among other gems, this appears towards the end of the song:
"Lady, one more complaint
and I'll shove a rape-whistle up the Mrs. Va-J-J"

I was going to say that exact same thing.
What ever happened to Paul Barman? I saw him live at the Knitting Factory here in L.A. and it was painfully obvious that he was a studio artist.
However, I enjoyed his wordplay, kind of pre-nerdcore, a little more grad school than others of his type.
Okay, this is interesting. He's now doing like spoken word/animation stuff. Actually, pretty awesome + weird.

Kind of reminds me of Ken Nordine meets Flash.
OMG. MC Paul Barman? MTV get off the air pt.2? It's Very Stimulating? Princess Superstar?
This is fantastic! Where have I been? Just on the strength of these names alone I must track down this person's music. Those lyrics looked amazing. Hopin' the beats match.
