Stop what you’re doing, grab a carb (or don’t, because Regina George might judge you), and get ready to bask in pure early-2000s nostalgia. Lindsay Lohan and Lacey Chabert just reunited to recreate Mean Girls magic, and yes, the limit for how much we can obsess over this does not exist.
The dynamic duo appeared on Watch What Happens Live! to take us straight back to North Shore High. Lindsay slipped back into her role as the awkwardly fabulous Cady Heron, Lacey resurrected her iconic Gretchen Wieners energy, and host Andy Cohen did his best Regina George impersonation—which, let’s be honest, probably involved a lot of “YOU CAN’T SIT WITH US” practice in the mirror.
Cue the Girl World Flashbacks
Lindsay kicked off the reenactment with the kind of gravitas only someone who’s memorized the whole Burn Book could deliver:
“Having lunch with the Plastics was like leaving the actual world and entering Girl World. And Girl World had a lot of rules.”
And just like that, Lacey (a.k.a. the queen of toaster strudels) came in hot, delivering Gretchen’s greatest hits like, “You can’t wear a tank top two days in a row, and you can only wear your hair in a ponytail once a week. Oh, and we always vote before we ask someone to eat lunch with us. I mean, you wouldn’t buy a skirt without asking your friends if it looks good on you.”
Honestly, the commitment? The delivery? The fetch-ness of it all? Chef’s kiss.
Holiday Movies That’ll Melt Your Cold, Dead Plastic Hearts
If this wasn’t enough to make you wish Mean Girls 2 wasn’t a distant dream (sorry, that weird spin-off doesn’t count), both Lindsay and Lacey are starring in Netflix holiday movies this month.
Lindsay’s Our Little Secret drops November 27, where we assume she’s plotting Christmas miracles instead of sabotaging spring flings. Meanwhile, Lacey’s Hot Frosty is available now, which hopefully involves Gretchen Wieners proving her dad’s toaster strudel empire can also conquer seasonal desserts.
If you need us, we’ll be binge-watching their holiday films and practicing our Mean Girls quotes in the mirror. (“It’s like I have ESPN or something!”) Oh, and don’t forget to watch the full recreation below—it’s not just nostalgia, it’s a whole vibe.
You go, Glen Coco!
