10 unnecessary stupid facts about Mean Girls

On October 3rd, he asked me what day it was… Ugh, these are the nostalgic Sundays when I feel like watching movies from the past. Mean Girls is such a typical case. You've seen it eight times already, but even the ninth time it's delightful. Time for some inside info about this favorite chicklit.

1. Error. The movie was initially going to be called ‘Homeschooled’ because Cady was homeschooled in Africa. It just doesn't sound as nice.

2. Another error. Amy Poehler (you know, that crazy ‘I’m not just a regular mom, I’m a cool mom + creepy hard nipple hug’) is actually only seven years older than Rachel McAdams, who played her daughter in the film.

3. Amanda Seyfried (Karen Smith in the film) actually auditioned for the role of Regina. And Lindsey actually preferred to play Regina, while Rachel McAdams wanted to be Cady. It's something.

4. Ashley Tisdale also wanted to play Karen Smith, just like Scarlett Johansson.

5. Throughout the entire film, Tim Meadows (Mr. Duvall) had his arm in a cast because he had broken it before filming started.

6. Did you know that Mean Girls is based on a parenting help book called ‘Queen Bees and Wannabees: Helping your Daughter survive cliques, gossip and other realities of adolescence’?

7. Cady is named after the 19th-century Elizabeth Cady, a leader of the American Woman’s Rights Movement.

8. You go, Glenn Coco! Screenwriter Tina Fey (herself seen as Ms. Norbury in the film) likes to use real names for the script, so Glenn Coco really exists! He is a friend of Tina's brothers.

9. Juicy… A number of scenes were adjusted so that the age limit of the film could be lowered. For example, Gretchen was supposed to have kissed Jason at the party, but Cady would walk in while she was giving him a blowjob.

10. If you were also super jealous as a kid of Regina George's always smooth hair, Rachel wore a wig throughout the entire film. Now you know that too.

And none for Gretchen Wieners. Bye.
