It was chosen as the first single from her album ''[[American Doll Posse]]''. However, multiple radio stations rejected "Big Wheel" because the [[Acronym and initialism|acronym]] [[Mother I'd like to fuck (MILF)|MILF]] is repeated in the bridge of the song. An edited version was played on some radio stations that eliminated the MILF acronym, changing it to "M-I-M-I".
