Lindsay Lohan, the original star of "Mean Girls," is very "hurt" and "disappointed" by the vulgar jokes that cost her her new movie.
Lindsay Lohan seemed to be a big fan of the new "Mean Girls" film (more on that later), but that may have changed.
Lohan attended the premiere of the film on January 8, where she not only reunited with writer/actress Tina Fey and other past cast members, but also made a surprise cameo in the film.
"Paramount was like, 'Can we get any of the original ladies,' and I was like, 'I can't get five people in,'" Fey told Entertainment Weekly. "I was like, 'If it's a surprise and I can only get one of them, then the original movie is really Lindsay's movie.' They're all great, but she's the heart of that movie."
But despite being the "heart" of the film, that didn't stop Fey and the screenwriters from slipping sneaky jokes into the new script, seemingly at the expense of Lohan herself.
In the scene in question, Megan Seastarion (who also recorded a song with Rene Rapp for the soundtrack) appears in a TikTok video before a photo of Angourie Rice, who plays Cady Heron. It is important to note here that Rice is a redhead like Rohan.
Megan says, " Okay, so someone sent me this look." She said, "Hot girls, back to red, Y2K Firecrotch is back. [So what's the problem?
In 2006, oil tycoon Brandon Davis told paparazzi that Lohan's... Yes, he made headlines when he was filmed calling Lohan a "fire crotch" during a rant about genitalia. Davis was in the company of iconic Y2K sisters Paris Hilton and Nicky Hilton, who giggled the entire time as they uttered that he "stinks," is "orange," and most famously, "fire crotch." Ouch; anyone who was familiar with pop culture in 2006 will remember that this was all the rage.
Davis' remark also sparked a years-long feud between Paris and Lohan.
This was a terrible moment for Lohan, who was apparently shocked to see it suddenly rehashed in the new film, and to see such hurtful words thrown around so carelessly as if they were nothing. A source told the Messenger that Lohan was "surprised and taken aback" to hear the words at the film's premiere.
A representative for the actress told the same outlet that Lohan was "very hurt and disappointed" by the use of the word "firecrotch."
While Lohan will likely await an apology for this one (and rightfully so), we are surprised that they chose to take a jab at the film's former star, especially given her support for the new "Mean Girls". It's not gross, guys, it's not gross.
Let's wait for Faye to say something about that.
