The Ryan Lochte publicity machine churned louder than almost anyone’s during the London Summer Olympics this year. But it seems like a distant hiss now that the post-closing ceremony gold medalist is tooting his own horn all over Hollywood. After all, he comes complete with a movie-star-sized ego, abs of steel and his own catch phrase. “Jeah!”
Rapper MC Eiht has come forward to say that “Jeah!” has been his for years. And Lochte credits Young Jeezy for coining the word, which he pronounced ch-ea, in his songs. But Lochte has put his own spin on it by changing the “ch” sound back to a “ja” sound. Is this a joke or something?
As Lochte so eloquently described it at a recent press event, “It means like almost like everything. Like happy. Like if you have a good swim you say, ‘Jeah.’ Like it’s good. Like, so I guess it means good.” Lochte may also consider trademarking the word "like" since he, like, says it a lot.

According to his application for a trademark, there are a lot of things that could carry this upbeat tag. Lochte is considering mass marketing swim goggles with the phrase, as well as key chains, water bottles, even gift cards. Just image it, “Happy Birthday to the World’s Best Grandma. Jeah!”
