Lacey Chabert Spills the Hot Frosty Tea: The Struggle Was Real—and Hilarious

Buy Me A Coffee

Who knew that making holiday magic could be so outrageously funny? Lacey Chabert, the queen of Christmas movies and our forever Mean Girl, is giving us a behind-the-scenes peek at the chaos that went down while filming Netflix’s Hot Frosty. Spoiler alert: It was less “silent night” and more “snort-laughing into your eggnog.”

At 42 years fabulous, Lacey revealed to People that the hardest part about working on the festive rom-com wasn’t battling fake snow or awkward mistletoe encounters—it was trying to keep a straight face. “There were so many takes that turned into outtakes because I just couldn’t stop laughing,” she confessed. Honestly, relatable.

The reason? Her co-stars. With comedy heavyweights like Craig Robinson, Joe Lo Truglio, Lauren Holly, and Katy Mixon, the Hot Frosty set sounds like it was one giant comedy club with craft services. “Everyone’s just so, so funny,” Lacey gushed. “We had such a blast. It was a really joyful environment.”

But let’s not sugarcoat it—Lacey admitted she was the weakest link when it came to keeping it together. “I’m the worst at not laughing when you’re not supposed to,” she said, probably with the same energy as Regina George declaring, “Boo, you whore.” Every time someone cracked a joke, there went Lacey, breaking character and turning the scene into blooper gold.

And honestly, she’s not even sorry about it. “That joy that’s created on set when you’re entertaining each other? I really think it’s infectious,” she explained. “It comes through the screen.” Translation: prepare to feel personally attacked by how much fun this movie is.

As for the movie itself, Lacey promised it has a cheeky vibe. “These characters are in on the joke themselves—they’re not taking it too seriously.” And isn’t that what we all need from a holiday movie? A little laughter, a little love, and maybe a snowman who’s weirdly attractive. (Hot Frosty, we see you.)
