It was included on the band's major-label debut studio album, ''[Come Clean](/source/Come_Clean_(Puddle_of_Mudd_album))'' (2001), and was released as the album's fourth and final single by [Flawless](/source/Flawless_Records) and [Geffen Records](/source/Geffen_Records) on July 29, 2002. The song continued the group's popularity on the [''Billboard'' Hot 100](/source/Billboard_Hot_100), peaking at number 13, becoming the band's second highest entry behind "[Blurry](/source/Blurry)", which peaked within the chart's top five. It also topped the ''Billboard'' [Mainstream Rock Tracks](/source/Mainstream_Rock_Tracks) chart for one week in October. The popularity of "She Hates Me" made it become Puddle of Mudd's second single to sell over 500,000 copies in the United States, following "Blurry".{{cite web|last=Grein |first=Paul |url=http://new.music.yahoo.com/blogs/chart_watch/60011/chart-watch-extra-top-20-songs-in-digital-history/ |title=Chart Watch Extra: Top 20 Songs In Digital History | Chart Watch |publisher=Yahoo!

The chord progression is similar to the main chord progression in the 1983 [Suicidal Tendencies](/source/Suicidal_Tendencies) song "I Saw Your Mommy", which led to accusations that Puddle of Mudd plagiarized the song.{{cite web|url=http://www.metalsucks.net/2011/11/16/did-puddle-of-mudd-rip-off-suicidal-tendencies/ |title=Did Puddle of Mudd rip off Suicidal Tendencies? |publisher=metalsucks.net |accessdate=2015-01-19 |date=2011-11-16 }} It also shares chords and melodies with the song "[Summer Nights](/source/Summer_Nights_(Grease_song))" from the 1971 musical ''[Grease](/source/Grease_(musical))'', and the band has sometimes performed "She Hates Me" as a medley with that song during their concerts.{{Cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_NZQmJPXCw|title=Puddle of Mudd- She F*cking Hates Me/Summer Lovin/The Joker|via=YouTube}} In the album's insert is a photocopy of each song's original handwritten lyrics, which displays the original name of the song as "She Fucking Hates Me". The title was changed to make it more acceptable to the public, though the line is still heard in its original form in the unedited version of the song. ==Music video== The music video was directed by [Marc Webb](/source/Marc_Webb).{{citation needed|date=February 2022}} It features members of the band and film crew playing a group of characters who all lip sync to the song, such as a high school student, a janitor, and a fast food cook. This is interspersed with shots of the band playing the song in the street. As the song gets louder and more distorted, the characters get more aggressive and violent towards those around them. ==Track listings== {{col-begin}} {{col-2}} '''UK CD1'''{{cite AV media notes|title=She Hates Me|year=2002|type=UK CD1 liner notes|publisher=[Flawless Records](/source/Flawless_Records), [Geffen Records](/source/Geffen_Records)|id=497 798-2}} # "She Hates Me" (explicit) – 3:36 # "Nobody Told Me" (live) – 5:40 # "[Blurry](/source/Blurry)" (live) – 5:02 # "She Hates Me" (video) '''UK CD2'''{{cite AV media notes|title=She Hates Me|year=2002|type=UK CD2 liner notes|publisher=Flawless Records, Geffen Records|id=497 798-2}} # "She Hates Me" (album version) – 3:36 # "Nobody Told Me" (acoustic live) – 5:04 # "Blurry" (acoustic live) – 4:11 '''UK cassette single'''{{cite AV media notes|title=She Hates Me|year=2002|type=UK cassette single sleeve|publisher=Flawless Records, Geffen Records|id=497 798-4}} # "She Hates Me" (clean version) # "Nobody Told Me" (live version) {{col-2}} '''European CD single'''{{cite AV media notes|title=She Hates Me|year=2002|type=European CD single liner notes|publisher=Flawless Records, Geffen Records|id=497 775-2}} # "She Hates Me" (album version) # "Nobody Told Me" (live from [Pittsburgh](/source/Pittsburgh)) '''Australian CD single'''{{cite AV media notes|title=She Hates Me|year=2002|type=Australian CD single liner notes|publisher=Flawless Records, Geffen Records|id=497 776-2}} # "She Hates Me" (album version) # "Nobody Told Me" (live from Pittsburgh) # "Blurry" (live from Pittsburgh) {{col-end}} ==Charts== {{col-begin}} {{col-2}} ===Weekly charts=== {|class="wikitable sortable plainrowheaders" style="text-align:center" |+Weekly chart performance for "She Hates Me" !Chart (2002–2003) !Peak
