Mean Girls continues to resonate with audiences, even two decades after its release. Recently, Lindsay Lohan and Lacey Chabert, who played Cady Heron and Gretchen Wieners, respectively, brought back some of that nostalgic magic during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live. They participated in a humorous skit alongside host Andy Cohen, who stepped into the role of Regina George with a blonde wig, capturing the essence of the iconic character perfectly.
During their skit, Lohan reminisced about the unique experience of having lunch with “The Plastics,” stating that it felt like stepping into “Girl World” where there were plenty of specific social rules. Chabert chimed in to recall some of those memorable guidelines, like the necessity of not repeating outfits too frequently and maintaining boundaries regarding friends’ exes. They also referenced the famous rule, “On Wednesdays, we wear pink.”
Cohen embraced his inner Regina, humorously debating the calories of a candy bar while ultimately conceding to indulge in cheese fries. This recent recreation of scenes from the film isn’t the first nod to the beloved movie; last year, several cast members participated in a commercial that showcased what their characters have been up to since high school.
This delightful reunion highlights the lasting impact Mean Girls has on pop culture and its fans, proving that the lessons and laughter from the film remain relatable today. It’s a testament to the film’s enduring charm that it can still bring people together and spark joy, even after all these years.
