Lindsay Lohan and Lacey Chabert recently delighted fans with a dose of nostalgia, revisiting their iconic roles from the 2004 film Mean Girls during a fun appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen. The two actresses, who played Cady Heron and Gretchen Wieners, respectively, participated in a playful reenactment of the famous cafeteria scene from the movie.
The segment, part of Cohen’s “Clubhouse Playhouse,” had Lohan reprise her role as the naïve teen Cady, while Chabert took on her role as the well-meaning but insecure Gretchen. Cohen, never one to shy away from a good laugh, jumped in as the third member of the trio, donning a wig from The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kim Zolciak-Bierman to play Regina George, the role famously portrayed by Rachel McAdams. The impromptu reenactment quickly became a moment of pure joy, filled with giggles as the three tried to stay in character.
During the segment, Cohen also brought up a fun fact that amused Lohan. He revealed that her father, Michael Lohan, had unintentionally become part of a viral moment from RHOA. The incident occurred when he was at a restaurant where some of the show’s cast members got into an argument. Lohan, who hadn’t known about this, responded with a surprised “Wait, really? My dad was there?” The realization brought some lighthearted humor to the moment, as both Lohan and Chabert struggled to contain their laughter at the unexpected connection.
As the scene played out, Lohan’s enthusiasm for Mean Girls was evident. Fans of the movie have long hoped for a reunion or continuation of the beloved teen comedy, and during the interview, Cohen posed a question about the possibility of a reboot. Specifically, he asked if Lohan would be open to playing the mother of the twin characters she famously portrayed in The Parent Trap (1998). Lohan responded enthusiastically, saying, “I mean if [director] Nancy Meyers was a part of that, yeah. I would never say no to Nancy.” The sentiment clearly resonated with fans of the classic film, as Lohan and Cohen agreed that it was “perfect.”
In addition to reminiscing about past roles, Lohan also discussed her current projects. She stars in the upcoming Netflix film Our Little Secret, which begins streaming on November 27. Chabert, meanwhile, is currently starring in Hot Frosty on Netflix, a romantic holiday film that reimagines the story of Frosty the Snowman. The movie has already gone viral, with Chabert co-starring alongside Schitt’s Creek actor Dustin Milligan as the snowman.
The Watch What Happens Live appearance was a delightful moment for fans of both Mean Girls and Lohan and Chabert’s other work. The reunion reminded everyone of the lasting impact of the film, with many still quoting its sharp dialogue and embracing the lasting friendships it helped foster. Whether they’re discussing potential reboots or simply enjoying a nostalgic moment, Lohan and Chabert’s reunion was the perfect reminder of why Mean Girls continues to capture the hearts of fans.
