Jan Caruana, the actress who played Emma Gerber in the movie Mean Girls, is reacting to a viral tweet about her character’s hairdo.
During the Spring Fling scene, Cady is elected Queen and she decides to break up her tiara and distribute pieces to some of her classmates.
“And Emma Gerber, I mean, that hairdo must have taken hours, and you look really pretty,” Cady says from the stage.
Former The Amazing Race contestant Korey Kuhl tweeted a photo of Emma Gerber at the dance and said, “I guess I just don’t believe that Emma Gerber’s hairdo ‘must’ve taken hours.’”

The producers of the Broadway musical Mean Girls have announced that the show will not re-open when shows are allowed to return after the pandemic.
The hit musical opened in early 2018 and played over 800 performances on Broadway. It’s final performance was on March 11, 2020.
Tina Fey, who wrote the movie version of Mean Girls and starred in the film, wrote the Broadway show as well and received a Tony Award nomination for her work.
Sabrina Carpenter joined the show as lead character Cady Heron on March 10, 2020 and only got to appear in the show two times before it was shut down because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The producers said, “We’ll see you soon on our National Tour, which resumes performances this summer, and in the upcoming film adaptation from Paramount Pictures.”
“Obviously it was really fun to do…they didn’t air part of this, but it felt like it was, we’d all just seen each other the day before. It still feels like we know each other so well, because we spend so much time with each other and we discussed how it’s been working with each other. That it’s been so continuous over the years. That it’s, it feels like we’re all still good friends, which was really nice to catch up with everyone. So that was really fun!”
She also talked about Broadway aspirations: “I would definitely consider Broadway. I mean, I did Speed The Plow in the West End in London. So we were talking about bringing that to Broadway off Broadway and I’m not sure what happened with it, but I would definitely do Broadway. I love the amazing triple threat – sing dance act!”
“My mom needs to be on DWTS. And I want to go cheer her on. Oh, I’m going to cry. That would be like my dream to see her on Dancing With the Stars…she would do so well, if not win. Yeah. I mean, she’s a champ. She was a dancer, her whole life, you know, she was a ballerina!”
Plus, Lindsay said she’d love to work with Ryan Murphy.
“Now he’s someone I would love to work with. I did Glee quickly with him, but I would love to do a full series or movie with him…I loved Ratchet!”
The infamous scene sees Lindsay‘s Cady trying to catch Rachel‘s Regina George badmouthing Gretchen, played by Lacey, while she is secretly listening on the phone call.
After hearing the nasty things Regina has to say about her, Gretchen then dials in Amanda‘s Karen to gossip about it.
Karen then gets a call from Regina, who once again expresses her dislike for Gretchen.
The phone goes back and forth between all four of them, as they break promises, lie about just what was said and more.
The scene ends with Karen’s iconic fake cough and Regina’s equally memorable response: “Boo, you wh***!”
The iconic phone call was recreated with the purpose of urging more people to get out an vote in the upcoming election in November.
One week after the Mean Girls cast came together to celebrate the film’s 16th anniversary, Jonathan, who played Aaron Samuels, revealed what it was like to E!’s Daily Pop.
“It was a moment!” he said of the reunion.
“Because here’s the thing…we haven’t all been together in 16 years, and to all be together for the first time, and do it on Zoom — already it’s awkward to see each other for the first time; you want to say so many things — but then when you’re on a Zoom call, it’s even more awkward because you’re waiting for the person to talk and you don’t want to interrupt,” he went on to say.
“You’re just like, ‘Whatever you wanna say!’” he recalled, adding that it was still “super fun to see everyone” he worked with on the movie.
“It really did give us, like, a sense of nostalgia seeing everybody and being next to each other, like, on screen. It brought back so many, like, high school memories. You know, when you run into an old classmate from high school? It was really fun.”
