i'm bringing sexy back

Okay I was googling the phrase "sexy back" for fun to see if the meaning I thought it carried. I always thought it was a funky way of saying something cool and trendy is happening. Here are some contexts in which the phrase is used:

"Reality show vows to bring sexy back to flying."

"Pamela Anderson brings sexy back to DWTS"

"Explicit category could bring sexy back to Apple's app store"

So in all these three phrases above, it "sexy back" collocates with the verb "to bring". It seems to mean that when something lacks, or has lost its cool or trendy factor, sexy has to be brought back to it in some way.

So I went to check the meaning of "sexy back" on Urban Dictionary and I found this meaning here:

(to bring) Sexy Back.

A phrase used to describe something as really hot/cool/now/fly/happening/trendy, or something which has become cool due to one bring sexy back to it.
Man did you heard 'Promiscuous Girl'? Nelly Furtado has brought sexy back!!!

Damn I own at Miss. Pacman. I'm bringing sexy back to the arcade!

You seen the new Aston DB9. That car is bringing sexy back!

But this meaning was numbered 2. The number 1 meaning, as I read it, gave me a really unpleasant surprise. I didn't know that it meant this as well:

A common phrase in the world of S&M, sexy back is often used by the Sadist to describe a masochist who is exposing a hairless and toned back that is to be either whipped or flogged. The Sadist will prefer a sexy back over a non-sexy back as the colour of the masochist's skin will appear more red at the end of the session, than it would if there was hair there. Also should the Sadist choose to dig their nails into the masochist's back there will be less interference of hair and thus more pain for the masochist to experience.
In Justin Timberlake's song entitled Sexy Back, Justin is expressing that he is bringing Sexy Back to his Mistress in hopes that she will be pleased to see him in massive pain by the time she is done with him. The song then goes on to expain the session in more detail...
Dirty babe
You see these shackles
Baby I'm your slave
I'll let you whip me if I misbehave
It's just that no one makes me feel this way

Interesting. =/
