Although many of us think that Mean Girls 2024 is a great moment for Lindsay Lohan (and yes it is), there was a detail in the film that broke her heart. The film includes a terrible reference to an awkward moment in the actress’s personal life that occurred in 2006. That time, Paris Hilton’s friend Brandon Davis famously referred to her as if she had a “crotch of fire,” which Tina Fey took up for a joke in the film.
Megan Thee Stallion has small roles in the Mean Girls reboot, and just when Cady (Angourie Rice) is at the talent show, she quips, “Y2K crotch fire is back.” The above would have left, as a representative of the actress revealed to People magazine, Lindsay Lohan “very hurt and disappointed.” We understand how terrible it could have been for the actress because she has tried hard to get rid of her past.
Lindsay Lohan in Mean Girls 2024
SPOILER ALERT! In case you haven’t seen the movie and you’re a big fan, it’s best to avoid this part. The film that premiered on January 11, 2024, gives us moments of great nostalgia, but the one that everyone surely enjoyed was seeing Lindsay Lohan in action. The actress returns to the new version of the story in which she originally starred. Lohan plays the moderator of the math competition, where she must remember a procedure that she had not paid so much attention to because she got lost in the gaze of her lover.
Regarding this moment, Fey revealed that Paramount asked her if she could get the original actresses to recreate this scene; However, she saw it as very complicated, but she knew the secret to surprise the viewers.
“I felt like if I could only surprise one person, the original movie is Lindsay’s movie (…) she was trying to think of something you wouldn’t expect. And just for her to do that at the end of the movie, it also seems like she comes, I hope, at a time when fans weren’t expecting one more little surprise. She also allows him to be smart, like Cady is,” the screenwriter said.
Lindsay Lohan and Her Expensive Cameo

According to Variety magazine, Lindsay Lohan’s cameo cost at least $500,000. The famous she worked on this scene only half a day. So, well, things evened out.
