The catchphrase "The devil made me do it" is famously associated with comedian Flip Wilson, who used it as a recurring line in his stand-up routines and television show during the 1970s. Wilson's character, Geraldine Jones, often blamed the devil for her mischievous behavior, which resonated with audiences and became a cultural catchphrase. The phrase has since entered popular culture, often used humorously to deflect responsibility.
