AceShowbiz - Lindsay Lohan feels "very hurt" by a joke in the new "Mean Girls (2024)" movie. The 37-year-old actress starred as Cady Heron in the 2004 teen comedy and although she makes a cameo appearance in the new "Mean Girls" movie, Lindsay actually feels upset by one particular joke in the film.
A rep for the Hollywood star told The Messenger, "Lindsay was very hurt and disappointed by the reference in the film." In the new movie, rap star Megan Thee Stallion says, "We are going back red. Y2K fire crotch is back!"
The comment is a reference to an infamous remark made by oil heir Brandon Davis back in 2006, when he called Lindsay the name during a night out in Los Angeles.
The new movie is written by Tina Fey, who recently revealed that she was delighted by Lindsay's cameo appearance. Tina, 53, told Entertainment Weekly, "Paramount was like, 'Can you get any of the original ladies?' And I was like, 'I can't fit five people in.' I felt like if I could only get one person as a surprise, the original movie is really Lindsay's movie."
Lindsay plays a Mathlete moderator in the new film, and Tina was thrilled to reunite with the actress. She said, "As great as [the original cast] are, she's the heart of that movie. And I thought, well, what could she do? I didn't think [she should] play a teacher."
"And just to have her do that late in the movie, it also feels like it comes, I hope, at a time where fans weren't expecting one more little surprise," the comedian added. "It also lets her be smart, which Cady is."
